The Cole Communiqué - March 2023
Our March Newsletter went out to all our subscribers over the weekend, but for those of you who don’t want to receive our news in your inbox, you can read it all here…
Unexpected weekend in Australia
We enjoyed some luxuries in Australia, like shopping at a supermarket and brunch! It was a great opportunity to get away.
The MAF Mareeba Engineers did a great job on P2-MAF!
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!

Sharing about our work in PNG
Our time in the UK and Canada has been very busy but a real blessing. If you were unable to hear us share about our work, here is a video of one of our presentations.
We’re back in PNG!
It was an emotional journey, but we made it on 4 flights and we’re in Mt Hagen, where MAF’s HQ is. Thank you so much to everyone who spotted our urgent call for prayer, God answered, we made it all the way with all 7 of our suitcases!!!
