    Now all glory

    o God, who is

    able, through

    His mighty

    power at work

    within us, to

    accomplish

    nfinitely more

    han we might

    ask or think.

    Ephesians

    3:20 NLT

    In July our branch directors, personnel department and counseling

    department began to gently pressure our family into planning a vacation.

    We knew we needed time away from our isolated location, but because of

    our financial situation never believed it would actually happen. However,

    we followed their promptings and investigated a few options, and ended

    up greatly discouraged as traveling and lodging in Papua New Guinea is

    costly and complicated. We asked a few close friends to pray for Gods

    will, put this need on the back burner of our minds, and began planning

    our return to the States for next summer instead.

    During the last weekend of September, Sara was able to participate in a

    ladies retreat here in Ukarumpa called She Is led by a group of fantastic

    women from Australia. Following the retreat, Sara was made aware of a

    She Is speaker who needed a house sitter for their home in Stanthrope,

    west of Brisbane, Australia, for a month during December and January.

    On a whim, and in retrospect by the prompting of the Holy Spirit,

    Sara contacted Sue Peters. To make a long story short, we leave Ukarumpa on

    December 20th and return on January 17th. The Peters family is opening their home

    us at no charge and even allowing us to use their cars. God certainly provides even

    before we know what we need! Just a few days ago, the doctors in Ukarumpa saw

    Marty for recurring digestive issues. They are referring him to a specialist in Austra

    So not only will our trip be for rest and rejuvenation but for a much needed medical

    diagnosis for Marty. Praise the Lord for His miraculous provision!

    We have stepped out in faith and are trusting in God to provide for this much neede

    time away. Would you prayerfully consider giving towards our trip to Australia? Go

    has provided free lodging and transportation for almost an entire month, but we still

    need others to come beside us and help with medical expenses, travel, and food. We

    believe in the only living God who performs miracles and are boldly asking Him for

    this and enough funds to sight see and shop for the first time in 17 months certain

    all more than we could ever ask or imagine!

    For His glory alone,

    Rainy season seems to have arrived! Gardens are

    once again coming to life, rivers are no longer low

    and our water tanks are full.

    Mike and Beth Matheson, youth leaders from

    JAARS, spent a full month in Ukarumpa. God

    blessed our community abundantly through their

    service here.

    The Kamano Kafe New Testament revisions were

    completed earlier this month, and work has begun

    on an audio recording of the NT as well as a

    hymnbook!

    We are so blessed by the Peters familys gift of the

    use of their home!

    Miriam travels to Lae with the 7th and 8th grade

    classes on October 24-26. Please pray for safety

    and a wonderful experience.

    Please pray for an increase in our monthly support.

    Holiday time is quickly approaching. Please pray

    for us and our families we are so far from.
