Thank you for

all

the good

letters

and cards you have been sending

our

way

since our arrival in

PNG. We

appreciate your remembering us

with

letters

and prayers^

We

are back in

Madang

now getting ready

for

which starts in a few days. The SIL jungle camp

is

held

on top of a mountain about 10 miles out of Madang. This training will

last for -fqgr months,

with

the

first two being at

the

camp

and the

last

two-montTfs Geing

in a

village

out

in the bush. Please be

in

prayer for us during this time of further

training.

Our shipment has

not arrived from the states yet with much of the equipment

we

had

planned to use during this time. However, with borrowing

some

things

from our good teammates here and with what we brought with us

we

feel

we will manage

,

I t will

be

good

training for

us.. We

enjoyed the

weeks we spent out in Bunapas and made many friends there.

I t

was a

good

experience for us,

Wes

made

two language surveys

with

David

Pryor while

wti

were there. The whole family

visited

two

other

vil

lages

which have

asked for a

translator. One village,

Azoa,

is locat

ed 45 minutes up-river

from Bunapas

and the other

village, Kabuk, is

located 60 minutes down-river from Bunapas . Both of these would be

good locations as far as accessibility^ However, there are other

vil

lages we

must visi t and more language surveys to be

made

before

we

can

make

a

decision.

We

felt

a very

warm

welcome

at

both villageSo

The

headman

at

Kabuk

has already adopted Jonathan and

Adam

as

his

grand

children and wants

them

to return..

We

are now in a

good

schedule of

classes and both students (Jonathan and Ad.im and teacher Mom are

enjoying i t . The boys are excellent students but, like all kids, are

happy

wh.^n

classes are over.

o

will Iiave a vacation from teaching

GREETINGS FROM THE SOUTH

PACIFIC

FIELD

TRAINING

CENTRE AT NOBONOB

PNG

Praise

God

for

His

faithfulness

and

careo Wes is. out

onj

a 3 day sxir-

vey hike with

most

of the other

campers

and I am grateful fo r the extr a

time to prepare our

news

to you.

The mothers

with small children

had

to

stay behindo The purpose of this

survey is

to train for future linguis

ti c surveys

which we will

need to

make

to determine our a llocat ion in a

village ^d specific

language

needs„ As with al l

the

other training

we

are receiving here

at

jungle

camp ,

i t

is

invaluable,,

We

are

all

well

and happy ^d

enjoying our experiences here. Jonathan and

Adam have

lots of friends to play with and are learning

Pidgin

quite

well

as

they

speak

with the national workers here and when we vis-.t in the villages

have

been assigned a village family which lives close to camp

and we

visit

with

them

periodically

sometimes

spending

the night.

This

gives

us the opportunity to observe the

customs

of the people with

whom we

will live and work.

Wes

and I aren t losing any of the extra pounds we

picked

up

before leaving the States because we are eat ing so well here

but

we

are toning up some

muscles

from

al l

the hiking

and

exercise we

are getting.

Perhaps

the greatest blessing we are receiving here

is

the

fellowship we have with the other campers (translators and support work

ers) and the very fine Christian staff.

thank

God for bringing

us

together with them.

have

finally received

news

of our shipment of

household goods

I t

has arrived in the port city of Lae and will be

shipped

on up to

Madang

shortly. have been able to get along in

jun

gle

camp

with

what

we brought with us

and

some borrowed items.

praise

God for answering prayers concerning this. We

also

have some

great

news

concerning property and housing for PBT. Ron Augsburger

has

been able to rent

two more small

apartments for

PBT

personnel in Madang

and

also arrangements are being

made

for leasing about

36

acres of land

south

of Madang. Application has been made to the government for per-

mssion to lease and plans for development have been presented

to them

Please be in prayer for the final okay and for funds to

develop

and

build ^

March to mid-May, we received

varied

and

detailed

SURVEY REPORT:

KATIATI

Along

the

darkening

trail, we

began

to realize

that

soon the

sun

would

be

completely

below

th e

horizon and we

would

have

to

finish

our

hike In the dark, with only

the

light from

our

flashlight.

We had

started

our

day

by rising before

daybreak

and leaving Madang in our Nissan by 6:15

A.M. Alta,

Jonathan, Adam, Martha Wade

{a

fellow PBTer) and

I

rode

In

our

crowded

car

which

was

packed

with supplies for

the

trip. We made the first 200

kilometers

in 3 hours but,

after

turning on the

inland road, it

took

us

another

2

hours to

travel 75

kilometers. The

inland

road

winds

up,

down,

and

through

small

mountains and

fords several

swift

streams.

When

we

arrived

at

Josephstaal, we learned that several bridges had fallen (makeshift log bridges) and

that

Katiati was

accessible only

by foot. A KatiatI

man named Adelbert and his family

offered

to walk • ^ m ^ ^

with usto

Katiati

soweput someofour

food

in our y-^'n '

packs, left

the

rest in

the

car,

and

started walking.

With

God s

help,

our

considerate guides, and by

the light of our

flashlights

we

arrived

V hours HI

later

an

hour

after

dark

^

eg

The people were so pleased we had come and '1—t

madeusfeel mostwelcome Forthenextfewdays i^l

we learned about the Katiati area and language I^B

turn, the

Katiati

people learned about

Pioneer



SURVEY

REPORT AZAO

Abukin

assured me thatanother log was there

but

Iwasn't sure. You see,thelog bridge Iwas

inching

across was

Invisible,

18Inchesunderthe strong-tea colored

water

Well, what'sthe

difference , I thought, it's worth it. The survey had been a success and this shortcut would

cut two

hours

off our walk

back

to the Ramu River

Three days ago (October 27) we had left David Pryor's house (about 4 hours by car from

Madang) andheaded up-river one hour by

motorboat

to

Adarum. My

goal was tovisit asmany

villages as possible, collect sufficient language data to determine howmanydialects existed

in the language, and inform the people of the ministry of Pioneer BibleTranslators. Because

of the boys' school and the longwalks, 1went alone with two national guides. WeleftAdarum

and

walked

5 hours to

Manemong

where

weate,

talked,

recordeda

word list,

and spent the

night.

After a

heavy

rain

in

thenight, the people saidwe would have togoto

Jankit by (dugout)

canoe since the traiIwascovered by3-4feetof

water.

Thecanoe was twofeetwidebyabout 30

feet long. Everytime I stood up, it threatened to capsize so I had to sit for the entire fivehour

trip. Sunburned and seat-sore, I was glad to climbout and meet the people of Jankit. But,

praise

the

Lord people from all the other villages I had hoped to visit were there too for a

school party. Iwas able to get all the information I needed and return two days

early.

Even

more

the

Manemong people

offered to

show us

a

shortcut

Oneof

my

guidesstretchedout hishandand said,

Come

on,

ll

help

you .

So Ifelt around

in

the

murky

waters

until

I found the

log

and stepped over beside

him. WHUMP

Our

combined

weight was too much for the submerged log; it broke and the water

rose

suddenly

from knee-level towaist-deep.

Nevertheless, thank

you, Father, for a

good

survey

ACTING BRANCH DIRECTOR

Upon arriving

in

Papua

New

Guinea lastDecember, Iwasgladto bea partofPioneer

Bible

Translators. The

other

PBT ers had

sent

plenty of information,

sponsored our

family s visa

applications, prepared housing, enrolled us

in

the

field

training course, andhadestablished a

credible work inthe country. DavidPryor, PBT s Branch Director inPapua NewGuinea

atthe

time of

our

arrival,

and

Ron Augsburger, the PBTDirectorof Support Services, have helped us

tremendously to adjust to life in this

country.

Last July, the members voted to elect John Pryor David s brother) to follow David as

Branch Director to

take

office in January 1981. However. John is on furlough in the states

until

May,

1981.

So, around the first of

November.

John wroteasking me to

work

as acting

Branch

Director until he

returned.

I accepted

after

a lot of consideration and prayers.

So now. fromJanuary to June, Iwill be serving other PBT ers as myfamily has been served.

The responsibilities of the Branch Directorfall into three main areas: government relations,

relations with other missions and the outreach and developmentof Pioneer BibleTranslators

in Papua New Guinea.

Working with PNG governmentofficials is both a privilege and an honor. Although Papua

New Guinea is an independent country under five years old, already it is recognized as a

leader in

the South

Pacific Islands community. Our good standing in

the

country, approval of

visas for new members, helpforourcommunity literacy programs, etc. all

depend

on an active

program of government relations by PBT s Branch Director,

Our translators work in several areas which

have

representatives from many different

missions. Good relations with

these

groups insure thatwhen a translation is completed, itwill



UKARUMPA

WORKSHOP

HOUSE PROJECT

Around Thanksgiving, our family moved from Madang up into the PNGhighlands to liveat

the

SIL

center

in Ukarumpa. As I have w/ritten before,

Pioneer

Bible

Translators

has

a need for

expert help in linguistic analysis, anthropological research, and translation which is only

available at workshops sponsored by the

Summer

Institute of Linguistics (SIL— the overseas

arm of Wycliffe Bible Translators).

Our

PBT

members

have been

unable

to

attend some

of

these valuable workshops

because

housing

was unavailable. Our response to this problem

was a house. To

this

point, over 13,000

has been raised

and

the house

is at

the lock up

stage but not liveable. Itwilltake around 7,500 more to complete this project and PBT s funds

for

the

project have

been used

up. Until this

house

Is

complete

we have no

guarantee

of being

able to attend workshops. The workshops and expe rt

help

we

receive

a t Ukarumpa are

necessary

to

produce

the top

quality work we

are pledged

to

produce. Please

join with us In

prayer that

o

will provi e the jfun s and

work

time needed to complete this house by

September

1. 1981.



FROM ALTA

But Mom, I need American money for the Sunday School offering . This was Adam s

exasperated

comment

to me as I handed him 20 toea as he was leaving

forSunday

School

our

first

Sunday

at Ukarumpa. We had arrived on Friday

and the boys

had

spent Saturday

exploring Wycliffe Bible

Translators

main center in

the

New Guinea highlands. They

hadn t

seen

such

a

concentration of

white

skins

and western

style

houses s ince our arrival in Papua

New

Guinea

and

Adam

thought he was back in America.

Jonathan, Adam and

I

had

flown up

on the M plane while Wes

and

Ron Augsburger drove

the car

up with the tools for

house

building.

After settling in quickly

the boys and

I

continued

their schooling

while Wes

and the

rest of

our

PBT

people began working on the house.

It was

very slow

at first

because

of

the

rain

and

mud.

Wes

became afflicted with a

strange

ailment in his legs which gave

us

quite a scare. We

were

so

thankful

fo r the

fine

care of the nurses at the cen te r and grateful

fo r

the

answered

prayers

of healing. We still

don t

know

what the

problem was.

Our

Christmas

in thehighlands

was

very nice. We received many

packages

from home

and

I

had taken our little

artificial

Christmas

tree

and decorat ions. With the pine trees In the front

yard and the cool breeze from the mountains it was almost like being back home . Ifixed a

turkey (a Butterball, no less, from Australia)

and

we

had

a

good

time with

the

rest of

the

PBT

work

crew.

While

we had a week s

vacation

from the

boys

classes I was able to get s ome

canning done. 1canned green beans, tomatoes, blackberries, swIss

chard

and rhubarb, all of

which are hard to get here in the lowlands. I had

taken

my

pressure canner

and canning jars up

with me in anticipation of all those goodies . It

was

a thrill to be with many of our Dallas SIL

friends the two

months

whiie

we

were

at

Ukarumpa

and

see how

the Lord has

led

in each

of

their lives.

Some

of them have allocated in villages

and begun

language work

and

others are in

the process

of

allocating.

We

are

anxious

to

make this

step

in

our

own

lives

and continue

to

ask for

your prayers

for

our

final decision. We

are

back in Madang now.

The boys and

I

are

busy

most of the day with school and Wes is filling in for our Director, John Pryor, until he

arrives back on

the field from furlough.

Thank you for

all th e Christmas cards and letters,

for

the

Christmas

gifts

and

most of all for your prayers and love. We need you

and

praiseGod for

inside

still

must

gain the confidence of the

people

and win

hearts.

His chances of doing this are

obviously

much

better if he

can speak their

language

well; but

speaking the language is

not

enough. If
