Please pray for good weather and&nbsp;safety in travel in our upcoming trip in May.&nbsp; It is quite a process to get to the Philippines even though it is only a 6 hour flight from Port Moresby.&nbsp;&nbsp;Weather permitting (generally, we have fog to the ground and rain in May), we will fly out of Wusuraambya via NTMA on a Cessna 206&nbsp;on May 15th, stay the weekend in Goroka, fly via Air Niuguini on the following Monday who are known for cancelling several flights a week, spend the night in Port Moresby and then fly the next day to Manila on the 20th.&nbsp; Air Niuguini only flies to the Philippines once a week.&nbsp; Since&nbsp;flights are cancelled often, we want to get&nbsp;to Port Moresby a day ahead of our flight. or&nbsp;we will wait another week to get to the Philippines and miss one of the two weeks we have with Joy and her boys.&nbsp; So you can see it is quite a process to travel in PNG.<\/p>\n<p>We would appreciate your prayers that the scheduling will go like clock work and that we have safe travels.&nbsp; Also, pray that Stephen and his family will have safe travels from their village to Manila &#8230; a 2 day trip for them &#8230;to&nbsp;pick us up.&nbsp; They have to drive to Puerto Princessa one day and fly to Manila the next day.&nbsp; Pray that Joy, Adam, David, and Matthew have a safe flight from the States to the Phillippines.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
