Still ready for Spring...

Posted by rogersupdate on June 12, 2008 at 12:00 AM Comments comments (1)

It's June 11th and I'm still waiting for spring in Central Oregon!  There were scattered snow flakes yesterday and tonight I had to, again, bring in my plants as it is to get down to 28 degrees tonight!  Tomorrow is the last day of school for the kids and so I'm gearing up for a busy exciting summer.  Dallas will be taking care of 7 yards and he hopes to create a small business creating websites such as this one.  Carson has already started to pick up pine cones and pull weeds for a friend who pays by the pinecone!  Alexi continues to work at a dog grooming shop and will hopefully put in a few more hours this summer.  Me? I have so much paperwork to do for Kingdom Investments, Ransom Wear and Provision Ministries that I hardly have time for anything else.  But I have been making time for Kimberly and we've enjoyed bike rides and hikes.  I'll keep you posted!

Ready for Spring!

It's April 16th and I'm still waiting for spring to come to Bend, Oregon.  Two days ago it was snowing outside!  During this time we are continuing to move forward getting ready for a terrific summer of work.  We're preparing for several events with Ransom Wear to bring an awareness to the sex traffic issues around the world and to help raise money for our work there.  I've also completed our Provision Ministries International website with the major help of my son, Dallas, and it is now up and running.  We're praying that our personal support as well as the personal support for Ramesh and his family will come in so that we can continue focusing on touching hurting lives.  Thanks for your prayers!  - Dave

Back from Asia 2008

Posted by rogersupdate on March 12, 2008 at 7:22 PM Comments comments (1)
I returned from Asia last week and what a trip it was!  I missed taking my kids with me but I did need to meet with our workers in Nepal.  We now have an office in Butwal where our girls are taken for counseling, medical check ups and where they learn job skills.  We've also opened a small check point booth and transit office at a border crossing with India.  Here our staff help stop men from taking Nepali girls across the border into India.  The girls are taken to our transit office where they are then transported to our office in Butwal.  The work happening here is incredible!  I'll try to get a video of it on our website soon! - Dave

Christmas and New years

Posted by rogersupdate on January 3, 2008 at 11:43 AM Comments comments (0)

     So Christmas was a little different...so at our moms house we had christmas eve on Sunday with christmas on Monday. Later monday night we went over to my Dads house for yet another christmas eve but at the same time it was christmas day at the same time. so we had Christmas the next day at my Dads house ( Tuesday ). So it was verry exciting yet confusing. New Years we celibrated at my dads house. We had our friends Jeff, Patty and Haylie over to our house to celebrate. We all sat around in a circle and said what God had done for us in 2007. We celebrated the new year and launched off some fireworks and went to bed...

Products/Thanksgiving

Posted by rogersupdate on November 20, 2007 at 12:19 PM Comments comments (0)

    As some of you may know, our latest shipment of Ransomwear is being held up by terrorists. And the driver is being held for ransom. Kind of ironic that we buy ransomed girls for our job. And now we have to pay the ransom for one of our girls husbands. If we fail to pay the ransom, they will shoot him. Just goes to show how unsecure some of these places that we go are. Anyway...This thanksgiving my siblings and I are with my mom. So both my parents want us for thanksgiving. We are at our dads house this week but he had us for thanksgiving last year and so my mom wants us this year. but it's still my dads week. So we have to leave our dads house early and go up to portland for thanksgiving. But my dad still wants us for thanksgiving. so we are having thanksgiving on wednesday at my dads house and a second thanksgiving in portland. I know that this makes no sence at all. So just pretentthat you know what I'm talking about.
