Can't see the darkness?

IMG_2091 Please consider sharing our ministry with friends and asking them to join you in praying that God will use His translated Word to shine light where there is darkness this Easter season.

Can't see the darkness? You'll have to look past these young children, from a remote Arop village in Papua New Guinea, into their homes and everyday lives. Like many Pacific peoples who've been “christianized” for hundreds of years, this people group still doesn't have the chance to fully understand what it really means to be rescued from darkness... to have the access to the Word of God in a language that speaks to their hearts.

Translation and support teams are hard at work, as I am writing this, seeking to create access to that message for the first time.

Thank YOU for being a faithful part of our ministry and the work that God is doing in Papua New Guinea!

He is risen!

Kurt (for Johanna, Kassia, Lukas, and Matthias too!)
