NTM

I have been in Papua New Guinea since September 2007.  Once I learned the language in the Madang region, I moved to the Sepik region to finish my orientation and begin official ministry. 

I love it here in the Sepik, and my days are usually full as I run the Tribal Resource office and manage the Guesthouse ministry. 

In Tribal Resource, I receive emails and CDs in the mail bag with printing projects that the missionaries in the bush send to me.  I format the documents if needed, sometimes add pictures, and do the printing, laminating and binding and send the finished product back into the tribe to be used by the tribal believers and missionaries there to continue teaching.  Most of the projects I receive are translated portions of Scripture, Bible lessons, and literacy materials. 

For Guesthouse, I basically make sure everyone coming and going has a place to sleep!  There are a number of guest flats available on our Center, and I keep the scheduling and booking in order as well as directing our wonderful cleaning lady to the houses needed that week!
