Website up and running again!

Thanks for the many kind enquiries about our missing website! We’ve finally tracked down the fault (it wasn’t entirely ours!), and we’re back in business.

In addition, we have a new web address: www.pillingers.net. We feel this is more appropriate than our old one — pillingersj.co.uk — now that we will be based in South Africa.

New web address

Please note that we now have a new address on the web: ‘www.pillingers.net’.

The old address (pillingersj.co.uk) will still reach us for a while; but if you have that as a bookmark or favourite, please update it to the new one as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it’s business as usual!

ALL CHANGE!

It’s been a while since you heard from us, as we’ve been hopping from country to country for work, weddings and farewells. For Steve, that’s meant Kenya, South Africa, Thailand and Holland in just a couple of months! Quite a shake-up to the system.

So, what’s happening? Are we still going to South Africa later this [...]

Off to Thailand…

Tomorrow a sudden change of gears as I fly to Thailand for an international ‘Publishing Summit’.  I’ll be in Chiang Mai, where we have a regional centre, for ten days, returning on 15th March. In this rapidly-changing era of new technologies, Wycliffe leaders are coming together to shape future policy for creating and distributing [...]

Taking to the air

The Pillingers will very soon be taking to the air!

On Sunday 30th January I (Steve) will be flying to Nairobi en route to South Africa for our daughter Jen’s wedding. I’ll be in Kenya for a week to attend annual staff meetings with my new colleagues in our Africa Area administration, to which I am [...]

Burunge booklets dedicated

Earlier this year I typeset three booklets in the Burunge language of Tanzania: the books of Acts, James and Revelation. Right now I am finalising the book of Genesis. It was a great joy to hear recently of the dedication service the Burunge team held to celebrate the publication of the books I had done, [...]

Moving on!

Johanna browses houses for sale in Johannesburg

Yes, folks, the Pillingers are moving on! After many discussions and meetings, our future plans are clarifying… In case you missed it: in October Steve will start a new job within Wycliffe; and next July, Lord willing, we’ll be moving to South Africa.

In July we met with Steve’s [...]

From Eden to Eternity

Welcome to the story of everything – The Bible –
in an hour – brought to life on stage by Saltmine Theatre Company.

Journey with us through tragedy and tears, music and mirth, serpents and salvation!

Towards the end of the evening, a representative from Wycliffe Bible Translators will share an inspiring glimpse into how the [...]

25th Wedding

Wedding, 1985

Last weekend we celebrated a major milestone — our Silver Wedding anniversary. I suppose like everyone who reaches this point, we wondered where the years had gone! It seems only a couple of years ago that we got married, last year that our children were in primary school, and yesterday that they were [...]

CHANGE IN THE AIR!

There’s something we want to share with you…

We’re standing on the brink of a new phase in our lives and ministry. When you read what follows, you may understand why communications from us have been a little sparse in recent months. It’s only now that we’ve felt the time is ripe to share this.

Since 2000 [...]
