I realized today that I hadn't shown any of you pictures of our house here in Kiana. This is a picture of the front of our house. Jennifer and I spent alot of time cleaning away all of the brush away from the front and built the rock walkway leading up to the house. As you enter the house you have a small room as you enter called the "kunysuk". The kunysuk is a small room leading into the house where people change out of their winter clothes so that the house stays clean and it helps with the extreme cold as you come in and out of the house in the winter. The houses here are built extremely practical for the simple life of the northwest arctic village. We are extremely blessed with our home and the Friends Church has been more than hospitable to Jennifer and I and we are more than grateful for all that they have done for us and the ministry here.
