Update Two...

We have been living and sleeping in the villages for the past week and a half experiencing the real PNG. It has been very challenging for us as well as enlightening about their daily life. We have been relatively healthy except for one day last week when I got violently sick for about one day. I only missed one speaking session and my dad did a great job filling in for me.

Mom & Dad have been mightily used in healing ministry here! They have seen many miracles of instant healing. Many deaf ears opened, sight restored , and much more.

The youth confereence was a great success. Many youth have received new vision and desire to pursue the call of God on their lives. It was a great time of sharing in ministry with other pastors from PNG. The office opening was also great. We have connected with alot of different ministries here and God has done alot of firsts while we are here. Firsts for them and firsts for us. The best thing though has been all of the friendships and relationships built. We have had many times of the rich presence of God under the mango trees in the villages at unscheduled times of God's desire to touch and bless the people here.

One more thing for now. One village, Guinaroo, has decided to donate a large portion of land to the vision of building a Bible School Here. This vision for a new Bible School to be opened in PNG was birthed back in CFNI with Willie and Scott and has grown. The donation of approx. 300 acres of land is a huge step forward and will be legalized in the coming months.

We are in PNG for one more day and then go to Australia for a few days before we return. We will try to post some photos and more details in a day or two. Thank you for all the prayers and support!
