Dear Friends,
The picture below was taken this am as three of our lady doctors and two MK teens left for a one week mission trip to the island of Aniwa which is part of the Vanuatu islands. We have a new church there and they have started community based health care too. Dr. Becky Morsch will be teaching the community health volunteers preventative medicine, Dr. Susan Myers will be teaching about child health, and Dr. Stephanie Doenges will be teaching about safe childbirth. Jessica Myers and Priscilla Radcliffe will be assisting with children's meetings and doing friendship evangelism with the teens. They will be joined by missionaries from Vanuatu, Sylvia Potter, and Peter and Jenny Isaac who have been sent as missionaries from PNG to Vanuatu. Also joining the team are a pastor couple from Fiji who are also learning to do the community health outreach. Please pray for this outreach into this relatively new area. Pray for their travel and safety and especially for their fruitfulness. They will be holding revival services each evening as well. We had a nice time of prayer to send them off this Sunday am at our circle in front of the hospital as well as at missionary prayer meeting this week. Also our district missionary president who is also our OR supervisor, Margaret Mugang came to the house and prayed a beautiful prayer for Priscilla trusting the Lord to work through them and to use them to build His kingdom there. There have been a number of prayer praises already in the travel arrangements and with Priscilla getting her new passport and visa just today on their way out of PNG headed to Aniwa (an - e - wha).
