The constant sound of a running generator is music to our ears as we enjoy another Interface program!! We are so thankful for God’s timing in everything… our generator breaking down 2 weeks before program was so much better than our generator breaking down during our Interface program!!
The Interface students arrived on June 9th! And now they are settled into a routine and enjoying all that God has to teach them each day… so many new experiences, a new culture, a new language, and a new way of thinking! Please pray for them as God continues to work in their hearts while they experience so much here. They will be heading into a bush location to see a tribal church and spend time with the national believers and missionaries from July 6 – July 12. Pray that this will open their hearts and minds even more to all that God is doing in Papua New Guinea and around the world.
Jacob keeps busy around campus with security and maintenance. He is busy training co-workers in many of his responsibilities. Beth is enjoying the kitchen once again, making lots of yummy food for all the students and staff. She is busy training Cherie, her replacement for the next 9 months.
And now for the news that we are really excited to tell ya’ll… We are going to have a baby in February!! We are so excited that God has given us the privilege to experience raising a child to glorify Him. Beth is feeling very well and still able to work in the kitchen every day. We are very thankful for this!
Praises!
