We had three aisles that were this bad or worse. Thankfully, the whole store wasn’t this bad. So many people, including high school students, came out on their Sunday afternoon to help clean all this up. I know that they had their own messes at home, so we felt really blessed.

How about more Sivauna?! Anything having to do with wood fascinates me, but I love this sign that the Mamusi people made because I know how hard it was to make. This was hand carved out of kwila which is well known around here for eating up drill bits and saw blades. I honestly can’t fathom how they did it. It just shows their dedication to get God’s Word in their language. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1653977497548-P3LIVAV1NTMSWKMIS752/IMG_3054.JPG Blog - More Conversations?

A lot of what I do entails fixing buildings and houses that are a part of the big Bible translation picture in some way. This started as a clogged toilet (I think...). This is at one of our many regional centers that support translation teams close to them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453630228366-K9KOLXT1Q7RJKWGQTMS3/image-asset.png Blog - What Am I Doing Here? This is my department at CAM (Construction and Maintenance) in Ukarumpa. We hail from many cultures, but we are mostly Papua New Guinean and conduct business in Tok Pisin, Gadsup, Tairora, and English. Needless to say, you learn something new every day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631540655-0E03462K1CFOW1DPUIL2/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? One of my first projects when I hit the ground running was finishing this battery house which currently services half of our mission center. Don't quote me on this information that I'm publishing on the internet, but Ukarumpa generally has anywhere from 300-500 people stopping in, that are translating or supporting the translation work of hundreds of language groups in the country. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631584715-IPNW0QC3PWU3OCFS56O9/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? One of the things that I love most about being a missionary is that I have to be prepared to build or fix pretty much anything with usually limited resources. I quit Cub Scouts as a kid because it was the same night as Macgyver. I think that I made the right choice. This is a new radio tower that allows us to communicate with aviation better. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631616790-5YRG9IYAHCECQWVNB17W/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? A couple people stepped out of the office and suddenly my cumulative 10 minutes behind the wheel of the front end loader made me most qualified to go rescue the dump truck. I love my job! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631650472-8KOGEJO8LYPGJSO7915A/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Other things I love driving... Usually one week out of the month I am "on call". Not only do I get to cruise around in the Land Cruiser, but sometimes you get to go out at night in the pouring rain to troubleshoot a power outage, plumbing leak, or something exciting like that. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631682039-C3BLLGEQ0YFQ1YYZLMRC/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? I got to design and build this hauswin (think "House Wind") with my CAM guys which resides at the high school. The schools here in Ukarumpa allow hundreds of Bible translators to continue their work as their kids reach school ages. We built benches into the perimeter of this hauswin so that it would serve as a hub for community on campus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631709509-PNGX03BMIK2S6MT923OH/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? This picture and the one below are from a trip to another regional center on the coast. We put a new roof on one of the main buildings. The salty breeze came night and day, which was wonderful to cool off, but corrosive to most construction materials. The new roof that we put on had a special painted finish that will hopefully withstand these elements for years to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631734819-TT7QEOFITDDTLQYWVBW9/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? The reflection of the sun off of this radiant barrier was like working right over a campfire. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631758177-CTY8VMRB8SFZPP8L7MJD/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? We made a family decision to go to a village church close by. I just realized the other day that I can finally understand the sermons. That felt great, because we really want to invest in this community, but it's not always easy. Overcoming the language barrier has been a big challenge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631788359-T6IDAQV0UGFIY0GXW7J2/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Before I could understand the sermons, I would usually stare up at the roof and pray that it didn't fall on us all. It still needs to be replaced soon, but we made a few repairs before the big Christmas service so that it would at least be safe for now. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631820301-GYO0FZ7SJCBHB3872FVM/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? And it stood strong! God is good! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631847058-O5R78FWEVM8ZYYNZFLD6/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Just for fun, I've broken out my Glasses for Missions kit (thank you to all of our Hendersonville, NC family!) in my "free time". This literacy class was the perfect setting: here's the Bible...here's how to read...now you can see! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631920977-4JQCXKR0UB7I82JO67UR/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Why else are we here? Meet Steven. I met him over a frisbee break during our initial training. He has given up everything to translate the Bible into his native language for his people group of over 30,000. He and his wife and 4 kids are living on faith that God will take care of their needs. Now we (and you our partners!) have partnered with him to see this through. This was a solar light that you helped get him so that he could work after his kids went to sleep at night. And it also charges his phone! That's right, many people have no power and live in bush houses, but they will surely have a mobile phone! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631955204-4YW0P1B01OZXI4MHIA3F/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? As a coffee lover, I feel blessed to live close to so many coffee plantations. Steven taught me how to roast green (coffee) beans over an open fire. I buy my coffee from some Papua New Guinean translators (that's right, all proceeds go to their Bible translation project!) at our local market. It regularly says on the bag that it was roasted yesterday. It's okay if you are a little jealous, I understand :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453631983229-U2F494PU36JQFBB9JCBJ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? So getting back to Why #2: relationships with our Papua New Guinean brothers and sisters. This is actually my susa (sister) Suzanne. They were our wasfamili (think "watch family") for the village stay portion of our initial training here. They are wonderful! This picture is from last week when we went to visit them again. As you can see, Millie was quick to put on her village attire. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453632176407-FOXKK1AIJLQO43U0KJVQ/image-asset.png Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Drum roll please... Banner meet Baby Banner! As PNG families go, he would be considered my grandson, but he is more or less my great-nephew. Remarkably, he is only 3 months old!!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453632037707-31VGB81DIHNMTOTDC85A/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? And lastly, what are we doing here? Supporting Bible translators all across Papua New Guinea. I am building and fixing things so that they can focus on getting God's Word out to all the people that have never heard it in a way that they can understand the life-changing message of Jesus Christ. On one of my last trips, my guys and I had the honor of delivering these Bibles to an area where God was moving greatly and they needed more Bibles! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453632062293-5049M6ZM06VX8ACCLYD6/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? Meet the Wades. They were in our initial training course here in PNG and now they have moved their family out to East New Britain (a giant island province to the north-east) to begin work with a language group that has never had God's Word before. We are their support team here in Papua New Guinea. What does that mean? We pray for them, call/radio them to get status updates, send them supplies if they need them, laugh with them, cry with them, and whatever else that they need to stay the course of what God called them here for. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453899138562-DXVDJ97TKK99XM24I9T9/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453899320035-OWY16KFHNZALV79BU2AT/IMG_0851.jpg Blog - What Am I Doing Here? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1453899289728-WN47F6KKC17JF7HKTMR2/image-asset.jpeg Blog - What Am I Doing Here?

In the areas that we've been to, these are the main transportation if you don't walk or own your own car (which is rare—even old cars are expensive here). There may be a select few people in PNG that own a fleet of PMVs, but most of these are owner operated, and each one unique (many are named, like boats). Sometimes they look like this Toyota Coaster bus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437435920056-DTCG66JHHLLIP7R9RA8Z/IMG_9472-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Riding in the back of a PMV with Auntie Suzanne. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437436121634-GZPUEEZB2D928GTUH4TY/IMG_9599-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Banner and Leony (our niece!) riding in the back of another PMV, this time a pick-up truck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437435944708-UHRTR1A4NS0RT4D06LFR/IMG_9475-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living The fence didn't stop Auntie Belinda from buying the girls a meri blaus at the Main Market in Lae while we waited outside for a PMV. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437436009064-PSXK6FIIFYEK8IDRZ126/IMG_9511-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Kristi and Ree. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437435982481-EAJBWIJ71HV61D3IFHXZ/IMG_9505-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living In Mempangnaron for the day with our tambu (in-law), Daniel, and susa (sister), Suzanne.

Some bananas around here are smaller, but these were just as big as they look. I was impressed to see some family members with 6-10 of these on their plate (along with other food!).

My tambu, Daniel, built this house for his family. Not one piece of wood in this bush house was straight or the same size (which is indicative of every bush house in PNG), but the finished product was astoundingly straight, square, and strong. And with no power tools! Nails seem to be more common now, but traditionally they would have tied everything together with rope made from a certain grass or vine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441535637-EN8B4UN808COL351IKO2/IMG_9218-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Auntie Suzanne and Auntie Niwe teach Millie how to skin cooking bananas with a pig bone scraper, and cut beans with a super sharp knife, respectively.

Michael and I quickly ran over to investigate (I took my bush knife just in case, which everyone apparently thought was hilarious, but you can't be too safe). Mysteriously, this wooden crucifix fell and broke. Fortunately, I brought some Gorilla Glue, and Michael and I were honored to be tasked with repairing Jesus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441561324-HZ7O5E2Z12CWLL1NBGYE/IMG_9752-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Michael's skills were many, and these boats made from Sago palms were an instant hit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441569384-EYIGMLLIRJBV856QIGLZ/IMG_9755-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Squeezing the bags that came with our water filter got old fast.

Susu literally means "milk" which made sense to me when I broke a limb off and it started bleeding (what looked like) milk. It was great to be doing this with a professional like Papa because there were a few other trees that I thought looked like good options, but he would reply "That tree is too hard" or "No, that tree is for posts". https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441662366-72WEFTP02H7XZPWL66Z1/Kundu+%283%29.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living What tools did we use?

These are always used for the drum head. I was really hoping that I would have a chance to go hunting for one of these giant lizards, but I was very thankful that Nalau had an extra skin from a lizard that he previously caught. I put the hammer next to the skin so that you can get a feel for the size of this thing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441689956-1GHD512EY3XHMWQRHROF/Kundu+%287%29.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441713569-T41Z4X354ISQYUHWPAD0/Kundu+%288%29.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Papa uses (what I think is) Rosewood sap for adhesive for the kundu pailai skin. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437441701589-EQTGP5M8R526BMXH1AZ7/Kundu+%2810%29.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Pictures of the finished kundu to come!... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52ed5fdbe4b02a61e81f29f2/1437438450061-VHJ8E0YV1PUQNFVGCWKI/IMG_9192-2500.jpg Blog - Pacific Orientation Course: Village Living Again, the picture doesn't do this spider justice, but it's about the size of the palm of your hand.

Instead, for example, your dad's younger brother would be your "little dad". Likewise, you would be a grandchild to your grandmother's brother or sister. An incredible result of this family structure is that there are no orphanages in PNG (from what I've heard...). Aunts and Uncles take care of their nieces and nephews like their own children. All that to say, this is a picture of John with his grand kids, Mary and Paul.
