| The South Pacific island nation
of Papua New Guinea (PNG) is a fascinating place with over 800 unique languages
in use. During my first visit, I asked one of the local men why he thought
there were so many languages spoken there. He thought for a moment, then
said, "It's because we hated each other."
I thought that was a pretty profound insight. He got straight to the heart of the matter. He was also clear that what was true in the past is no longer true. The truth of the gospel has transformed these people. Now, having received Christ as their Lord and Savior, they are anxious to strengthen their faith by receiving God's Word in their own languages. This is where you and I come in. While Papua New Guinea is Wycliffe Associates largest overseas location for volunteer service, there are still dozens of critical vacancies that we are anxious to fill. Here are just five of the top priorities: High school English teacher Four of these roles are located in Ukarumpa, the main support center for over 300 families working on translation throughout PNG. As part of this community, your service would impact hundreds of Bible translators and the thousands of Papua New Guineans still waiting for God's Word in their language. The regional center manager role provides an opportunity to serve families closer to their rural communities. Our Wycliffe Associates team is already in place in PNG. Their job is to assure that you have everything you need to succeed in your service there. If you, or someone you know, would like to learn more about these top-priority needs in Papua New Guinea, just reply to this email or call us toll-free at 1-800-THE WORD (1-800-843-9673). We'd love to explore these possibilities with you. Blessings, Bruce Smith |
