Start of the Year - Day 4 "Learning & Labour"

We are excited to see many new things happen this year.  

One of these things is the training of our PNG Missionaries.  Some of them have been on our staff for 4 years, but things have not come into place for training to happen - until this year.  So... today we ran through the 5-hour introduction to the New Staff Training that will happen this first semester.  

There are 14 weeks in the training and 14 weeks in the UPNG schedule (for each semester).  That seems like it fits well, except the semester has already started and the staff have a 2-week commitment in the middle of the semester.  So please pray for them as they may feel pressured all year long :-(


We also took a couple hours and went to the Department of Labour to try to encourage them to speed up the applications for Volunteer Work Permits for Danika & Emily, our two trainers from Australia.  Please be praying for these permits - we need these 2 girls desperately as we are already seeing 10x more fruit this year than previous years.  We easily could start the year with 100 students wanting to be in discipleship groups! [Oh my, what a great problem to have :-)]
(L-R) Lillian, Greg, & Elton wait in the back while I stand in line :-)
