I must work the
works of Him
who sent Me
while it is day;
the night is
coming when no
one can work.

Planting churches in an unreached people group means different things for
different groups. For the Loko people this involved 15 years of living among
them. During this time we started a medical clinic and community store,
learned their unwritten language and culture, developed an alphabet and a
literacy program, translated the New Testament and portions of the Old
Testament into the Loko language, taught and discipled the believers and
provided a vernacular Bible teaching cirriculum based on NTM's
Chronological Bible Teaching Program.

In 2001 we moved to the Kaul Tribe (a distinct but related language group) to
do the same type of work.

Wayne is also involved with doing translation consultant work and Diane with
literacy consultant work for the field of Papua New Guinea.

"Some wish to
live within the
sound of Church
or Chapel bell; I
want to run a
Rescue Shop
within a yard of
hell."

"If Jesus Christ is
God and died for
me, then no
sacrifice can be
too great for me
to make for Him."
