we have been learning at home.<\/p>\n<p>Chuck completed formal language and culture study in August 2015 and is now beginning to prepare the Chronological Bible lessons. \u00a0After that is complete we will begin teaching the Ga&#8217;dang people about God and how He sent His Son to die for them. \u00a0We are also trusting the Lord to begin teaching in late 2017. \u00a0We look forward to this day
