Wet men walking

My co-worker, Erik and I were able to get into the tribal village to visit the people again and see the progress of our other co-worker, Christina’s house. It is a slow process, due to the excessive rains that have come even though we are still supposed to be in the ‘dry’ season. It certainly hasn’t been very dry. While in the village, a typhoon came through, right over top of our area. This is also an unusual occurrence, and caused some damage to the trail. The Lord watched over us though, and Erik and I were able to make it back out again. Pray for us as we will going in and out of the tribe more once we are moved to the town close to the Ga’dang people.

This is tropical grass growing along the trail. It is very tall, and sharp!

Christina’s house is starting to take a recognisable shape.

This ankle deep stream became a chest deep river overnight when the typhoon came through.

On the move... again!

It looks like our family is on the move again. Recently, we as a family were able to visit a town located close to the territory of the Ga’dang people. While there, we were able to find a place to rent for the next year. Once this next move is complete, instead of having to travel up to 700km from Manila to the tribal village, we will only be a short 1 hour jeepney ride and 3 hour hike away. We are looking forward to getting out of the smog and noise of the city, but realise we will have to re-adjust to ‘provincial’ life. The will be conveniences we will miss, but it is worth it in light of the prospective goal ahead of us. It puts us one step closer to being able to one day share the Gospel with the Ga’dang people. Pray for us as we make the final plans to move north.

Gamugamo infested our hotel room one evening. They are harmless, but messy.

We will be renting the 2nd floor, Christina will rent the 4th floor.
