About me

 I have a passionate, dreamer heart. I love Jesus and this love has taken me places I never imagined I would go or see, to do things I never thought I would do. My motto in life is "whenever, wherever, whatever, Lord" and he has truly taken me at my word.
I grew up a shy country girl on a dirt road with 3 older brothers. I was always trying to keep up with them and prove to them that I could keep up, be as fun & cool as they were. I love animals and always had a mixture of different kinds growing up. I have always had a love for traveling and a special place in my heart for Africa.

I traveled the first time to Africa when I was 19 years old and after some rambling and doing some growing up I moved to S. Sudan in 2008. While living in the bush God called me into full time ministry in Africa. I prayed about what that might look like and He answered my prayers by calling me to become a midwife ( click here to read the story; The mighty hand and plans of God ).

In August 2013 I became a Certified Professional Midwife after completing two years of training in the Philippines. I am now looking for additional partners to join with me so I can head to S. Sudan in April of this year. Will you consider joining with me in the work God is doing in S. Sudan?

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog and may God bless you, Tianne


My Constraint. Thy love, O Christ, My Lord.
 My Confidence. Thou art able to keep that which I have committed
My joy. To do Thy will, O God. 
My Discipline. That which I would not choose, but which Thy love points.
My prayer. Conform my will to Thine. 
My motto. Love to live, live to love.
 My portion. The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance.
