About Me

My photo
Keller, TX, United States
I grew up on a farm in Indiana, attended Purdue and Concordia Universities (undergraduate and graduate, respectively), served in the Peace Corps in Ecuador, and as a missionary with LCMS World Mission for 20 years in Thailand (15) and Guatemala (5). More recently, I've attained teacher certifications (Bilingual and Regular Ed Generalist EC-6, Bilingual and Regular Ed Generalist 4-8, and ESL). My heart is still in that of being a missionary and my first full-time post as an elementary/middle school teacher is that of English Language Specialist at Buena Vista International School (BCIS) in Shenzhen, China on the mainland just across the border from Hong Kong. I teach ESL to all grades at this new school under Lutheran Church-Hong Kong Synod. The school is not a part of the LCMS though the school has been granted LCMS World Mission educational consultants and an interim principal for its first year of operation.

Financial Peace

My Financial Peace University group leaders just shared this with me and I am posting it in the hopes that it will be of some comfort and motivation for you, too!  Enjoy!  God is so awesome! 
Thank you for this, Kyle & Shelly!

"When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high, You are going to smile because you are trusting on the One Most High.
When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is a roller-coaster with its twists and turns, As everyone of us sometimes learns,
Don't give up though the pace seems slow-- You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out-- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-- It's when things seem worst that you must not quit."
