Visiting our Bena Friends!

 Wow, the view hasn't changed at all... we miss the beautiful scenery as we drive down the Interface road.



 Piku saw us coming and ran out to meet us... almost dropping the scones she was selling.

 Momore, the village comedian, he always has a joke! :-)

 Kino, Jacob's wantok...Jonathan didn't know what to think about all these excited people who wanted to hold him and touch him.


 Sone, my wantok!

 A 'shell' house that they made for a big man's funeral... many people came from all around to stay there and mourn the death of a very important man, a lawyer  in the capital city, who grew up here.

 The burial site... we just happened to arrive for our visit soon after their time of mourning was over. So many people were gathered together.


 Jonathan enjoyed some scones, he ate two whole scones!


 Jonathan enjoyed watching the baby pigs in the village.

The people have some good knife skill! Using a machete to cut up a sweet potato while holding it in their hand.







 The view as we drove back down the road.

It was so good to see our friends, but so sad that we can not live at Interface anymore. Please pray for the missionaries as they get ready to go back to live with the people. Pray that the people will be more open to the Gospel when the missionaries return.
