Apal Bible Dedication Trip: July 9 – August 15, 2023
I’m still fundraising! Your contribution will help me assist with the Bible dedication for the Apal people (a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!!) and “finish my time” in Papua New Guinea (PNG).
If you do not currently support me, or have yet to join my team, now would be a wonderful time to start! If you do support me, please consider raising your monthly donation or sending an additional one-time donation. All gifts, big and small are appreciated and tax deductible! Click here to give.
I know I mentioned before that there are people I look forward to reconnecting with on this trip – there are so many that I love – but I don’t have snaps of all of them!
Below are photos of many of them. I don’t know if God will lead me back to Papua New Guinea one day, or if this will be the last time I see them until heaven. It’s not up to me. Saying our “goodbyes” will be bittersweet.

The amazing Lois!! She’s kept our office in line for over 30 years!
This eel was freshly caught one day when Joni and I were going home from the office. This is just about a block from our homes. I pulled up (with it on her side) and she kept saying, “not too close … not too close!” It was hilarious (for me)!! Can you imagine? They offered it to us for dinner. We declined…
I am using an app called “Signal” to send short periodic prayer requests for this trip. Please sign up and/or “join my group” here.
Enjoy this video from Pioneer Bible Translators video vault. This is my friend/teammate, Lindy. She is definitely going to be at the Apal dedication! She spent a lot of time in Angguna with Martha over the years.
Thank you so much for your continued prayers, I need them! I am so grateful to be a part of PBTPNG. Thank you for supporting me prayerfully and financially ~ I appreciate you more than you can imagine!!
