The theme for our biennial PNG branch conference has been “the Call” and each day we have reflected on a different aspect: called by Christ, called higher, called together, called for a purpose, called to holiness and called to love deeply. It has been a time of genuine spiritual renewal and an opportunity to meet and worship together as an entire PNG branch, as all of our Bible translation teams came in from their remote villages and participated. What a powerful picture of the body of Christ, as 460 obedient servants from 17 nations gathered together to humbly seek God’s will and to give Him praise for what He has accomplished here in PNG through us all during these last two years! Please continue to pray for the work of Bible translation in PNG, as we were reminded that there are still 300 languages that have no translation begun yet- none of God’s Word in the language of their hearts. And pray also for us as we continue to prepare for our transition back to the USA for a 9-month home assignment in July, that we would endeavor to finish our three year term well.
