It's been an eventful trip:
Moments before Dan was to speak, he was involved in getting a seriously sick PNG student into a taxi to go to the hospital.
The day after sharing the gospel on the beach, Elton met up with the fellow who had prayed with him. He is a high school student who had been in a "cult" (not sure if he meant a religious cult or a gang.) After talking with Elton on the beach and becoming a Christian, this guy decided to quit his cult (of which he was the leader.) Some of his group had seen him talk to Elton and later demanded to know who he was talking to and started to beat him up after hearing he wanted to quit their group. He ran away and they followed. He stopped to rest, and the group ran right past him. Elton said, after talking with this young high schooler the next day, that he was truly an example of a changed life!
Almost didn't get on campus one day because the security guard wanted a bribe.
A group of about 8 or 9 Solomon Island students who attend university at UPNG sang at the closing of the conference.
One student said that after attending Dan's seminar on how to experience God's love and forgiveness, she was finally able to forgive her father for leaving her family...and asked for prayer for him.
Dan is noticing all the floor tiling of everywhere we go. (He just finished retiling our bathroom floor before leaving for this trip.)
Thanks to all of you who prayed for us! We couldn't do this without you!
