2022 was a very good year for us all. We got to see most of you! We started our travels in January of 2022 and ended them in August. The Lord protected us as we traveled most of the East coast as well as flying to a few churches. We were able to be apart of some of your VBS’ and Sunday schools. We had great fellowship with all of you ( we both had gained the 10lbs to prove it) The kids made many memories along the way and we had some really great family time. God provided the visas to return to PNG in His time as well as giving us the funds that we needed for lots of random things that we need while on the field.
I am so thankful for our time in the village from Oct 5-Dec 5, 2022. We had a very good first time back with the people. We were all concerned about the house and how it held up. Well that too was an answer to prayer. No-one broke in or even touched it while we were gone for the year.
Bella’s accident of breaking her left arm happened on our supply run to the town 4 hours from the mission base. We are also very thankful for Gods protection on her and that it was only a broken arm. Even though we were told we needed to be seen by an orthopedic surgeon and had to leave PNG for 5 days we are just so thankful that the Dr. was able to fix it without surgery. We were able to fly back into PNG on the 22nd of Dec just in time for Christmas!
God has been good, HE shows himself true all the time! We pray that 2023 will be GOD HONORING AND CHRIST CENTERED!
“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.”-Psalm 138:8
