“Far-flung ocean islands wait expectantly for his teaching” (Isaiah 42:4 MSG). 

God has called our family overseas! In 2025, we head to the country of Vanuatu—to declare the goodness of God, to expand access to God’s Word, and to come alongside the local church as it cultivates flourishing for its community. Vanuatu is the most linguistically diverse nation in the world. About 50-60 languages still need significant Bible translation help. We plan to come alongside some of the locals using media to help expand Scripture engagement. Ricky will look to partner with Faith Comes By Hearing (FCBH), a media organization involved in the Bible translation movement, to help do Scripture recordings in minority langauges and train locals on media distribution tools. He will also maintain a small role in his current department, SIL International Media ServicesOpportunities for other media and development projects may also arise, given Ricky’s training and experience. People flourishing in all areas of life is what we long to see. Aidan will continue homeschooling and engage in evangelism, discipleship, and mentoring. Our daughter (age 14) and three boys (ages 12, 7, and 4) are very excited.
