Does this mean they have stopped asking for donations to Dillard Family Ministries.
ReplyDeleteDillard family, you are doing amazing things for the Lord! Keep it up!

There are other places to go that could use Christian missionaries more, such as Africa or China. Most people in Latin America are already Christians. Look at the data.
ReplyDeleteIt's about going to or staying in the place where God leads. It's not about statistics.
DeleteData doesn't prove they have the gospel and a true relationship with Jesus. Checking a box that marks you as a Christian is completely different then being a true flower of Jesus. Kill and Derrick..may you share the gospel of Jesus with those He puts in your path. Run the race.
Deletefeel its an huge mistake for both in this operation of missionaries work stuff, when should be thinking of own selfs and building their own family of 3 futures. both have degrees and should be useing what they both earned feilds
DeleteCongratulations Derick and Jill! I know God will use you to bring others to know Him. May God continue to bless you both and Israel!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome Jill & Derick! I know the Duggar/Dillard Families are most proud of you both!!!
ReplyDeleteMy Family really likes your show! It is something that everyone can enjoy and not have to flip channels because of foul language, or sexual content! Thank you for allowing us to come into your home.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the who they have been serving with all along???
ReplyDeleteLove you Jill!You are beautiful inside and out!Have always been a huge fan of yours!You are such a genuinely good person!I admire you and what you are doing in Central America!What a cute throw back photo!Please only pay attention to the positive!You have many LOYAL fans!Israel is precious!
ReplyDeleteIf you are a fan of Jill and Jessa Counting On please go to the link on the blog about Jill and Jessa Cointing On finishing strong or contact corporate Discovery and contact TLC and ask them to make more episodes.Hoping to see them on TLC again in 2016!They did not deserve to be cancelled!Honey Boo boo was on its way out anyways where the Duggars were getting excellent ratings!
ReplyDeleteI remember older episodes of Jill loving doing missionary work when she went with the Duggar family.She started learning Spanish she cried because she was so sad to leave this young girl when she went.This has been her passion for years now.How dare people accuse them of not doing what they are supposed to.I am so sick of people bashing the Duggars because of what one person did!Poor Jill I can't imagine how she felt when that came out right after she had a baby!Having a newborn is hard enough!Anyone who is bashing them I think is evil!The Duggars have helped so many people around the world!Shame on that woman who let those reports to the magazine!She should have to answer for what she did!That is not right!My heart goes out to this family.I have never seen people being treated so unfairly in my life!The parents did all that they could.I think they did a good job!
ReplyDeleteI remember that ;(
DeleteLove you Jill and baby Dilly!
ReplyDeleteHopefully the negetive people can see this throw back photo of Jill doing mission work in Central America and know that she is real and didn't do anything wrong with the donation money.
ReplyDeleteYour family is so beautiful and does so much for the world. Thank you for sharing your gift.
ReplyDeleteI was raised as a Mormon and I understand the scrutiny you are put under and the judgment passed. Just know there are people who pray for you all every day. You are raising strong sons and daughters and how wonderfully and graciously you have walked through your trial. Anna included. Thank you. Holding you in prayer as God holds you in His heart.
--Marcie in Los Angeles
God Bless you all and thank you for spreading God's love.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your appointments to the SOS mission team!
ReplyDeleteThe Dullards are a great example of God's love for others. I pray that they are able to continue this great work with no problem. Love seeing young people going out in the world and doing something with themselves.
ReplyDeleteI hope their safe over there. I wonder exactly were they will be stationed at. I was wondering when photos of Israel's 9 month milestone pictures will be posted to this site?
ReplyDeletePiper, they are perfectly safe. They will be in the tourist part of town with several conveinances such as running water, electricity and such. Thier wifi will be limited due to lack of cell phone towers. But rest assured the Dillard's will be perfectly safe!
DeleteThey are in Guatamala I believe.
DeleteI can't stand when people write negetive things about Jill and Derick!They are great parents and it is so selfLESS what they are doing over there.I wouldn't last a week over there.I hope people stop with bashing them.It literally hurts my heart.Jill was always one of my favorites.Shes so sweet kind genuine down to earth humble and beautiful of course.Many of us are starting to think people are jealous.
DeleteTEAM DILLARD 2016!!!TLC: please bring them back to tv this year and soon please!Fans please contact TLC and ask them to bring the Duggars back
DeleteNow the people who accuse her of vacationing over there can see this has been her passion for almost ten years now.I remember from old episodes!She used to bawl her eyes out on those mission trips!
DeleteOur family took a mission trip to San Antonio Lapaz and Guatemala City in 2007 to help with building a church and vacation bible school. Really opens your eyes and gives you a love for people that can't be explained. Love your family's passion to serve the Lord in the field He has for you. May the Lord continue to bless you.
ReplyDeleteJohn 4:35(KJV)
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
Anonymous I wish they would stay someplace safer until their child is older. That ways heavily on my heart.@Piper Dantes
ReplyDeleteI dare anyone to find anything negative about this one.We need more people like this in the world, how many young newly weds with a baby do y'all see packing up their comfortable lives and moving to a third world country? Bless them, bless them, bless them☺
ReplyDeleteThank you!i agree!well said!
DeleteI totally agree Natalia. May God keep them safe and bless them.
DeleteHow about the fact they and the SOS ministries insulted the entire Latin community by saying "marriages are mostly neglected in the Latin world." Interesting considering the divorce rate is much lower than in the U.S. The Latin community is very family oriented--with a strong value system rooted in their Catholic faith and marriage.
ReplyDeleteSo true! I agree
DeleteIt may not seem like the safest place to take a baby, but remember… when you're doing God's will, that's the absolutely safest place to be.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why TLC cancelled the show. The family isn't responsible for negative actions of one family member. The humiliation is beyond enough punishment for the entire family. I don't agree with all of their beliefs or practices, and would never encourage a woman to be dependent on a man, by starting a family before she can provide for herself. It's unfortunate that TLC doesn't understand the dynamics of illness and how others could learn by seeing how the Duggers rise above being a victim of society. Many people are abused emotionally, physically, and sexually on a daily basis. It's an awful experience abd I can't imagine how awful the family must feel in continued suffering for loss of income. How about bringing the family back? Does TLC not understand other perpetrators who are struggling with their disease might learn from Josh? The show being cancelled doesn't make sense. Corruption and sin exhists everywhere and especially in religion. Removing the family solves nothing, it just adds to the children's suffering. Sad indeed..
ReplyDeleteIts because the associated brand is now damaged. But I do agree it is not far to others in their family who have done nothing to deserve such scrutiny
DeleteGreat job Jill and Derick!Keep doing what you love to do.You have so many people praying for you and admiring you!Not many people would do something this selfless.You are such a inspiration to so many people!Israel is adorable!Love you Dillards!
ReplyDeleteTEAM DILLARD!We love you!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lily and Ellie for this wonderful blog!I ve been a fan of the Duggars for years and looked at this blog before but just quickly browsed through.Once I saw how great this is I literally can't stop I am now hooked lol Thank you for doing this for the fans!I think it's so sweet and giving to do this for these families!I m sure they appreciate you two as well!You now have another loyal fan of your blogs!
ReplyDeleteSo, is Jill and Derrick aware of the Zika flu??? They better be!!!
ReplyDeleteI am wondering along with many others if they will return to the USA in light of the Zika virus, and the gov't urging women not to become pregnant.
ReplyDeleteIf the world was more like you Jill and Derek, there would be far less killing and wars and far less starving people especially the children!! Your parents must be so proud of you and deserving so!! I wish I could be a quarter of the person you both are!! Keep up the good work, I know GOD is working with you!! I love you both so much and the family , I hate that they canceled the show from millions of people who loved it and learned about GOD and love and family just for one persons mistake. GOD BLESS YOU BOTH AND KEEP THE THREE OF YOU SAFE!!! DOROTHY MACRAE
