January 2017 Update (so far, so good)

January 20, 2017 by Joe Evans

What a year 2016 has been, and things have yet to slow down!  If I don’t get this update written down now, well, I may never get it done.

Since I returned to PNG in September, I have been quite busy.  In the past 4 ½ months, I’ve…

-attended crisis management training (while still jet lagged)

-made five trips to Lae to clear six containers

-driven about 2,000 miles to and from Lae

-driven over countless potholes, sinkholes, landslides, and one lane bridges

-driven around countless people, pigs, and vehicles on the wrong side of the two lane highway

-given out about two dozen sodas to pass through roadblocks

-taken part in about seven medevacs

-had to go to Australia myself for medical reasons  

-taken over cash management in the Business office

-processed three auto accidents for the Field Insurance Department (which is me)

-processed the Customs documents for seven container loads, three vehicle imports, five crates (including two shipments of tribal Bibles), and nine plane loads of essential cargo

-helped import supplies for ten different missions organizations

-been audited by PNG Customs (and passed with flying colors)

-done a few other things that I’ll remember later

Thanks to all of you for your prayers- and please keep on praying.

Lord willing, I’ll be in Florida this June for my annual three month home assignment.  Hope to see you then.
