We are asked frequently, “what keeps you busy these days?” In essence, what do you do with your time?
First of all, we are still missionaries with Wycliffe Bible Translators and we are on home assignment (furlough) for one year. It’s suppose to be a year of rejuvenation after living overseas six years (filling our tanks so to speak after depleting them non-stop). However, we aren’t just taking time to rejuvenate for one because it’s frowned upon by others and two because we like to serve in areas we can.
David volunteers two days a week at our home church helping in the office, with IT and with finances. He also volunteers about 30 hours weekly from home with You Version Bible App. He helps solve problems people have in using the free App.
DeAnna volunteers one day a week at Jonah’s school. She also has been staying occupied with running our home, communicating with those who financially and prayerfully partner with us, presenting about Cameroon in different settings and trying to solve some on-going medical issues.

Our prayer for you is that rejuvenation comes through the Holy Spirit as God prepares you for your next phase. We are always in a state of preparation and service simultaneously. That’s how God works. Further, anyone who knows you knows you are not wasting time. May our Lord give you constantly what you need to complete the calling He has placed in your lives.
I think the David & DeAnna Anderson family is amazing. So many decisions, choices, emotions, reorientation back to the USA, reconnecting, reaching out, and, well, going through things NO ONE knows about because no one else is walking in YOUR shoes. Pave your own way down the road you’re walking, because you have faith that “Thy (HIS) word is a lamp unto my (your) feet, and a light unto my (your) path”.
I might frown upon at least some intentional rejuvenation. /:| I know you can do it. After asking “What are you 2 doing today?” at church camp. Deanna answered for you both as you sat on a nice porch seat with a mountain view.
“Sitting right here.”
