After a year of traveling the world and planting vision for maritime missions, this season is about slowing down and strengthening what’s already been started. As the Maritime Academy builds foundations, prepares scholarships for students from developing nations, and steps toward accepting grants, I’m focusing on deeper roots—investing locally, developing sustainably, and trusting God to grow the seeds we’ve sown in His perfect timing.

Life feels full to the brim these days—coordinating schools, building training programs, managing websites, serving on base, and preparing the next generation of missionaries for life at sea. It’s busy and stretching, yet deeply life-giving, as I watch God weave together big dreams, practical skills, and patient trust into a calling that’s bigger than I ever imagined—and somehow perfectly timed by Him.
