We landed in PNG about 7:40 last night – just a little farther to go to Ukarumpa.
We spent this afternoon in
Bruce McFarland had arranged for us to be picked up at the airport, which is exactly what happened. We packed our 19 backpacks and suitcases into a mini van and then all 14 of us climbed in. It was a tight fit, but worth it for the short ride to the mission guest house we stayed at overnight. We were exhausted from travel, but no worse for wear. After a short time of prayer and thanksgiving together, we all went to sleep.
Today we go back to the airport for a short flight to Lae where we expect to be greeted by Bruce. Then a 2 ½ to 3 hour drive to Ukarumpa (in a much larger bus!). More to come shortly....
