The countdown has begun!\u00a0 May is here and we have less than 3 weeks of school left.\u00a0 In the midst of final exams and end of school year functions, our Lapilo center will be going through a time of transition.\u00a0 Some are leaving for good.\u00a0 Many of the seniors will be saying good-bye to a country that is more home to them than their passport countries.\u00a0 Families, like ours, will be sorting, packing and cleaning in preparation for their coming home assignment.\u00a0 Those who are staying will be faced with the challenges of even smaller numbers with work that seems to never end.\u00a0 Even our national friends and coworkers feel the tugs as they work along side us and help as they can.<\/p>\n
When we last wrote back in February, we were asking prayer for our up and coming 6 month home assignment.\u00a0 While we still have many things we are praying and trusting God to work out, it has been exciting to see how He is bringing things together.<\/p>\n
Thankful for:<\/b><\/p>\n Still praying for:<\/b><\/p>\n During our home assignment, we will still be Ethnos360 missionaries assigned to Papua New Guinea.\u00a0 We will be using our home assignment time that we have acquired in the 2 1\/2 years we have been back in PNG.\u00a0 (We are allotted 1 month of home assignment time for every 4 months of overseas service).\u00a0\u00a0 Home assignment is primarily for connecting with churches and supporters, getting caught up on medical needs and preparing for the next term on the field.<\/p>\n Please know that we have three road trips planned over this short 6 month HA. We are over due connecting with the majority of you. We will be reaching out over the next few months to see if we can connect. So, if you want to dodge us, it\u2019s time to take that long procrastinated cruise. :^)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The countdown has begun!\u00a0 May is here and we have less than 3 weeks of school left.\u00a0 In the midst of final exams and end of school year functions, our Lapilo center will be going through a time of transition.\u00a0 Some are leaving for good.\u00a0 Many of the seniors will be saying good-bye to a […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":321,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1015","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-family","7":"category-ministry","8":"entry"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1015","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/321"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1015"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1015\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1024,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1015\/revisions\/1024"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/paul-wilson\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
