Meet the Parents!

We have been blessed to have our first overseas guest (since our house building)! Seth’s parents came! We took a day or two to show them around the Island and then brought them to our village and people group.

They Are Here!

They Are Here!

We have enjoyed hosting them; showing them around, and having our people “meet our parents”. We have still been busy with ministry almost daily; still having men’s and women’s Bible studies, preaching, and being involved in the community.

We had Seth’s parents bring gifts for all those with whom we are ministering to (pastors and language helpers); we had everyone all come together and enjoyed a huge feast! It was the first time in our people group that everyone that is part of ministry came together for a meal. They all acknowledge it and appreciated it! They presented Seth’s parents with the typical gifts of flowers (shows they are welcome) and a sleeping mat (which means they welcomed to live and “sleep” here), Seth’s dad even killed the pig!

We are going to take the next week or so to enjoy them and take our first vacation since before starting our work here, back in the fall of last year. After our time off we will get back into the full-time grind! Growing the Bible School students, training pastors, and learning the Tiale language!
