Scott recently needed to travel to Madang, to assist another mission organization with security. He planned to travel by car, a 5-6 hour trip depending on the road, but several bridges had washed out, making the road impassable. Road conditions here are poor in general, with no traffic enforcement, higher likelihoods of accidents with animals or pedestrians, frequent road blocks to extract “tolls” and occasional armed robberies. It is no wonder that air travel is often the only way for translation teams to get to remote village locations. We are so blessed and thankful to have some of the best pilots in the world serving here in PNG, and thank you to Gavin Jones for getting Scott safely to Madang that day!
