We had five of our believers attend a teacher training course sponsored by the church in another language group. There are three national men from the Highlands of PNG that have been trained and travel around teaching believers how to teach Bible lessons. The believers who went were challenged to be sharing with those around […]

Ned has been working through taping the book of Matthew with Robin each day. It is a long process but it changes the rough draft Ned did while we were in the USA to a smoother, more natural version of the Scriptures. When someone who is not a native English speaker tells you a story […]

If you are on Facebook you saw some of the drama we had as we traveled back to Papua New Guinea. We are glad to be back and are slowly adjusting to the heat and time change. The older we get the longer it seems to take to adjust. We were extremely happy to find […]

We are getting very close to boarding the plane to PNG. This will happen on Father’s Day, June 17th! Linn had what we thought was her very last eye checkup six months after surgery #3. It turns out that the doctor wants to KEEP seeing Linn every six months. We let him know we would […]

We are beginning to pack and buy for heading back to Papua New Guinea (PNG) in June! We have our tickets and are looking forward to having our Tigak (“tee-gahk”) team back together again. Ned plans to have his initial draft of Matthew and Luke done before we arrive in PNG. He will be working […]

We wanted to share with you Savannah’s first prayer letter that tells her plans to return to PNG for one year. We are excited that she will be filling a teacher need plus be a “mom” to Christina at boarding school! Let us know or Savannah if you would like to be added to her […]

We would appreciate your prayers for finding good prices and connections on flights ASAP. Christina is excited […]

Happy New Year! The weeks just seem to fly by. We greatly appreciate your prayers. Ned continues to work full time on translation and is making good progress. The first week of January we were able to visit our former coworkers, Tom and Beth Carlton, in Chihuahua, Mexico. It was such a blessing and encouragement […]

We want to wish you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!! It is so nice to not be packing to head back to PNG while preparing for Christmas like we usually are. This past week we were all able to be at Savannah’s college graduation from Texas A&M University. It was such a blessing to be there […]
