Greetings. In our last update we said, “Sometime in the next few days Mahan will drive the Hilux to the Land Transportation Office to renew the registration. Please PRAY for good weather and a dry road as it is difficult and sometimes even impossible to travel on our road in wet weather. Also please PRAY […]

Greetings. We asked you to pray that the NTM airplane we depend on for delivery of supplies and transportation out to town every few months would soon be repaired and flying again and that the corrected CR (title) for our Hilux off-road pickup would be completed so we could renew the license on it. The […]

Our off-road modified Toyota Hilux pickup needs prayer. The registration became due the end of August. We have been unable to renew the registration because the Certificate of Registration (CR) (which I guess would be called a Title in the States) lists the fuel as gas while it is actually diesel. Two years ago a […]

Greetings. We greatly appreciate those who have given to the TB project which has enabled us to make a start on helping people who may have TB. It can be difficult because both pneumonia and ulcer symptoms are very similar to TB symptoms. A few have been x-rayed. One defiantly has TB, one has a […]

Greetings. Thanks for praying for our son-in-law, Howie. He missed his surgery date because the doctor wanted to first check out his heart. He has been cleared for surgery which is now scheduled for Dec 10. He is able to function some with the help of a pain reliever. Please continue to PRAY for him […]

Greetings. In our last update we said, “Please also PRAY for our newly saved son-in-law, Howie. He has a severe back problem, is in a lot of pain, and his company insurance may not pay for the needed surgery because he hasn’t been with that company very long.” The insurance company since then has said […]

Greetings. We said in an earlier update that there are three saved young men whom Mahan is disciplining to teach God’s Word. They are helping him teach the evangelistic phase to forty unsaved young people. Mahan is very pleased with the progress his disciples are making. One, Jhosua, has been away for couple of weeks […]

There are a number of people here in our village and surrounding area with TB and more keep getting it. In order to get medicine (which is free) from the government they are required to have a chest x-ray to be sure that the problem is TB. And then after taking medicine for a few […]

Some great news! We recently received the following message from New Tribes Mission Aviation (NTMA) – “We have long felt a helicopter would be the best fit for the region (that’s our island 🙂 ), but have not felt the timing was right to pursue it until now. We have decided to begin the process […]

We have been back here in our tribal village for a little more than two weeks now. Gene and Pulding have been able to do a final revision in the mountain dialect of twelve of the forty two evangelistic Bible lessons. Carol has converted them to the lowland dialect and our Manubu’ translation helpers in […]
