Dear friends and family This week I was able to start teaching again. We had checked the translation and lessons up to the middle of Romans 6 which put us 4 lessons ahead. I am now just teaching one lesson a week but teaching it twice to make sure they are getting it....

Dear family and friends I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was going to have to suspend teaching for a few weeks to catch up on lesson and translation checking. Well, the next week we had a short break and the week after Wendy went up with me. Wendy had a talk with...

Dear friends and family We have come to end of our break but the last few days we have both been ill with some kind of gastric bug ☹. Now Wendy has come down with a virus. Anyway, we are glad it happened on our break 😐. On Friday David went to the funeral of a dear...

Dear friends and family We enjoyed a visit from Travis who is a professional photographer from the US. On the 16th he took photos of us and did an interview with Wendy. Then on the 17th I took him up to Koropa in the morning and the people just happened to be cooking...

Dear family and friends Well, it is good to be back into the work. Wednesday the 15th I went up but nobody came for the lesson that night, which is understandable since it had been a while since I had been up there and they didn’t know that I was back. Thursday night...

Dear friends and family Yes, we are really back here in PNG. David received the ‘all clear’ from the doctors in Australia so we are ready to roll again as soon as we have a few days R&R to recharge our batteries. It has been stressful the last few months changing...
