Here are a few more photos from their last weekend here:
Mom and Alosinda prepare some PNG food.
Mom trying a sip of coconut water.
Dad taking his turn at scraping the coconut. The scraper seat was a little tippy, so Andrew's there holding Dad up, just in case! (The coconut was then mixed with water, the 'milk' squeezed out of it, and that was used to boil the sweet potato, yams and greens).
Mom and Dad saying thank you and farewell at church. Mom worked hard at learning enough pidgin to say a few short sentences. Everyone was delighted!
Showered with gifts! It's amazing how generous people are to all of our visitors, considering how little they have themselves.
A friend of ours with a nice camera took some special photos of us together.
We cherish the memories.
We cherish the memories.And on a happier note, Tim and Francine Sikkema arrived safely in Lae last evening! Please pray for a blessing over their time here and for the Lord to guide their decision-making.
