We had a German couple (with their 1 year old son) in Pal for a week and a half visiting (they&#8217;re thinking of joining the Pal work) and they are the reason we have now eaten bread on a stick.  The night before they left we had a campfire, wrapped bread dough around sticks, and then cooked the dough over the fire.  It was quite good.<\/p>\n<p>We had a good visit with this couple and it was a joy to get to know them. We&#8217;ll probably be able to let you know within a few weeks if we have new teammates or not.  Pray that God would give everyone wisdom and direction as decisions are made.<\/p>\n<p>Maggie and I are chugging forward in language learning as we near our second language check (end of May).  The beginning of literacy has been pushed back (for numerous reasons) and we&#8217;re now looking at beginning August of this year.  Because of the delayed start Maggie and I will be able to have a much bigger role in teaching literacy and seeing the program get rolling here in Pal, so we&#8217;re grateful for that.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re all healthy and well (our co-workers, the Claasens, too!) and glad the rainy\/windy season is behind us and the dry season before us.<\/p>\n<p> <a rel=\"attachment wp-att-833\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9939.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" rel=\"thumbnail\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-833\" title=\"100_9939\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9939-300x225.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9939-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9939.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-834\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9944.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" rel=\"thumbnail\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-834\" title=\"100_9944\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9944-300x225.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9944-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2013\/04\/100_9944.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Probably many of you have had bread on a stick before but it took me moving to the jungles of Papua New Guinea to have it for the first time.
