I have a back log of photo’s to upload. Here are some from a GA8 dedication service last year. Our first Turbo charged GA8, we now have three in our fleet with a fourth one on it’s way. It has been awesome to see God’s provision of renewing some of MAF PNG’s aging fleet with much needed new aircraft.

The Saturday before Christmas BFO had it’s Christmas celebration. The first time for the ministry and for most of these children to celebrate Christmas, to hear the Christmas story and to receive a present. It was a very special day and the kid’s smiles were priceless.
The morning started off with feeding the children after a prayer and a song. Followed by Aunty Rosa sharing the Christmas story with the children. Then Jono who was visiting made an appearance dressed up as Father Christmas (which I was first hesitant about, but is not portrayed as it is in Aus so it was good) to help hand out gifts for all the children, which had been donated. The kids went crazy at this and at times it was hard to keep the kids under control. Besides presents for the children, there were shoes for some of the older boys and other goods donated to be given out.
There were several other presentations and talks following during the morning. For me it was the first time visiting the orphanage and after hearing so much from Aunty Rosa sharing, it was pretty heart breaking and hard hitting seeing these children. It was an encouragement though to see how God has continued to move in this ministry so far, in their lives and will continue to do so.

In August was the Mt Hagen cultural show, the biggest annual event in the Western Highlands. Up there as the biggest cultural show in PNG with the Goroka show. Took these photo’s outside the showground while the groups got ready and practiced. Then inside the showground during the display and then on the actual grounds. Being in the midst of several singsing groups as they performed was quite an amazing experience.

Seemed like a good time to upload some photo’s from this time last year. Didn’t take too many photo’s until i got the new camera after Christmas. Some photo’s from different things back in Sydney. Spending time with my Dad in the city and going to the Star Wars display at the Powerhouse Museum, Christmas day with family, camping (really tenting, not camping) down at Eden with close friends and other random stuff. Enjoy, Merry Christmas.

Here are some more photo’s of the children, youth and women Aunty Rosa serves. These again were taken by Dave Schreier a few months ago. A Christian photographer who visited PNG and volunteered his services to MAF. Thanks again Dave for your service and these photo’s.
