\"\"<\/a>Wow!\u00a0 The last month has been busy!\u00a0 The best news is the rest of the new Tigak Scripture portions arrived and have been given to the Tigak church!\u00a0 Because there is now 68% of the Tigak New Testament in print we had to put the narrative portions (Genesis, Mark, Acts, and Revelation) in one book and the Epistles in another (all but four epistles and two gospels are now complete!)\u00a0 The believers were especially excited to have the book of Hebrews in their language.\u00a0 Paska says that Hebrews now makes sense to him!\u00a0 He has only had Hebrews in the national language of Melanesian Pidgin in the past to read.\u00a0 Since this is not his heart language it is much harder for him to understand.<\/p>\n

We had a great time visiting with Kara Linn and Anthony during their time in the tribe.\u00a0 It was so good for Anthony to be able to see firsthand what life in a tribal setting might be like.\u00a0 Of course, every tribe is different but it was still a profitable time for them.\u00a0 Then we all traveled together to our main center for the Islands region of Papua New Guinea for our annual missionary conference.\u00a0 It was an encouraging time to see the other missionaries we work with but only see once a year and to be taught from the Word.\u00a0 Christina was able to be part of a team of high school students that came from her school to take care of the kids\u2019 program so the missionaries could focus on learning from our amazing speaker!\u00a0 The Tigak team was also in charge of the teenagers so every evening we got to enjoy games and teaching times with 30 teenagers!\u00a0 It was fun to be able to share that time with Kara Linn and Anthony.\u00a0 They really enjoyed getting to meet some husband\/wife translation teams and hearing how they work together to translate God\u2019s Word into a tribal language.<\/p>\n

Kara Linn and Anthony made it back to Texas.\u00a0 Ned and Garrett are back at home.\u00a0 Linn is up at our main center for New Tribes Mission in PNG where the kids go to school for education meetings.\u00a0 As soon as I get home to take care of Garrett \u2013 Ned will head out to another tribal work and check some Scripture portions for another missionary.\u00a0 They are getting very close to teaching the Gospel for the first time after many years of preparation and culture and language learning!\u00a0 We are excited to watch and see how the Lord is going to work in this tribe.<\/p>\n

Thank you for standing with us!\u00a0 Pray for the Tigak believers as they are reviewing the truths of Romans! \u00a0Also, please pray for Ned as he has a strenuous hike (April 18th in the USA) into the tribe where he will do a translation check and his 53 year old knees don\u2019t really like it.<\/p>\n
