Mibu Ministry: Update on check of Romans/1 Timothy

Update on check of Romans/1 Timothy

After three days filled with 9 and 10 hours of reading, talking about and verifying comprehension we're very happy to let you know that the final bits of Romans and all of 1 Timothy have survived their final sifting! Just a few little tweaks here and there and they'll be officially ready to print and get into the Mibu people's hands! We're all tired and our brains are fried. Whew!

Special thanks to Greg Melendes and JJ Rasmussen for giving the huge amount of time and expense to fly in from overseas and provide this check for us!

We've flown back to Madang this morning. I've been reunited with my family. Sesi, Lucas and Keteng are taking off tomorrow morning to head back to Mibu. And our family will be heading up to Goroka for about a week before heading back into Mibu ourselves on November 1.

Blessings

What we do

We’ve worked in the remote Mibu tribe for the last 20+ years now (as of 2024). 14 of those years were spent actually living full-time in the jungle, and beyond that we have continued working remotely, the last three years from Mesa, Arizona!

From no written language, no access to the gospel message, and not a single believer, to what is now a thriving, healthy church with local elders and leaders, God has done phenomenal things! The church in Mibu has since brought the gospel teaching to at least 15 other villages where more and more people are hearing the gospel in a dark dark place!

We continue serving the church in Mibu by keeping the translation project moving forward, developing lessons, and consulting with the church leaders to support them in their roles, as well as making regular visits.

We trust the Lord for regular monthly financial support for doing this ministry. For information on how to give, please see the “Financial Partners Needed” page here!
