It was only for the space of 3 minutes, but I saw Coxwain today! He dropped by the Mapang Missionary Guest House. How good it was to see this old friend from the Solomon Islands. He was there when Laurie was just born. He was there when she went into heart failure. He was the one singing hymns with Dan during their devotion time together. He's the one that had a contest with Dan about who saw the newest car on the road, evidenced by the license-plate number. He was the one who supervised Norm Edney's emergency air-lift rescue after his bike accident. He was in our house in New Zealand when he first told our CCC staff family about a special girl in his life: Doreen.
Coxwain is now working with the Jesus Film project and travels all around. He's on his way to Goroko, PNG as I write this. His son, Norm, is 11 years old already.
Christian family makes the world a smaller, much more appealing place!
So good to "see" Coxswain and to hear he's doing well! :)
