Background: The eastern half of the island of New Guinea - second largest in the world - was divided between Germany (north) and the UK (south) in 1885. The latter area was transferred to Australia in 1902, which occupied the northern portion during World War I and continued to administer the combined areas until independence in 1975. A nine-year secessionist revolt on the island of Bougainville ended in 1997 after claiming some 20,000 lives.

Today the singles in the missionary group went out to tour the Hope School here in Port Moresby. It was really eye opening to see the level and standards for education here in this country. The Hope School is actually what we would consider an alternative school or last chance school. Kids who are orphans or extremely impoverished and can not afford to send their kids to school are able to be apart of this school. They get the kids caught up and up to speed and then try to get them placed into a public school. We got to go [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone! We have had a very encouraging trip thus far. I am very proud of the missionaries here. They have done such an outstanding job serving and loving the people here in PNG. They have gone to the Highlands and traversed dangerous roads on foot and in vehicles and they have come to the capitol preaching, teaching and loving the church in so many ways.

It has been extremely hot and I believe we all have lost a few pounds due to hard work and the heat. Please continue to keep us in your prayers and we look forward to our return on May 2nd. Love Shann P. [View Full Entry]
