Dedicating Ankem’s New Church
We spent our Christmas Eve celebrating the opening of a new Church building in our neighbouring village of Ankem, where we have friends and colleagues living. It was a time of thanksgiving to God for his generous provision and so much celebration for the completion of this work which has taken around 8 years!
So long neighbours…
We have 2 expat neighbour families here in Telefomin. We returned home just in time to say hello and goodbye to our Aussie neighbours who are heading on their extended Home Assignment for 6 months. We’re going to miss them!
Praying for Students Exams
At Church today we prayed for local school kids who have their important end of year exams in the next couple of weeks.
Introducing the Newest Member of our Family…
This is Daisy, our new puppy who joined our family on 22 September. We think she’s only about 4-6 weeks old, so we’re giving her medicine and feeding her up before puppy training starts in October!
Happy PNG Independence Day!
We’re really glad to be back in Telefomin to celebrate the 47th Anniversary of PNG’s independence!
We are finally Home!
It’s so nice to be back in our home in Telefomin, we were greeted with smiles and flowers when we landed, and found more decorations around our front door. It’s been a busy few days unpacking and doing some maintenance, but we are home now!
