Our New Home in Goroka

Just in front of our new home there is a campfire pit. We love to enjoy campfires every Saturday night!

Our new home, half of a duplex, we all love it!

Living room...

Dining room...

Kitchen..

Upstairs we have two bedrooms and a play room (or extra bedroom for when Poppies comes to visit next month!)
The view looking down the hill from our home. The gym is the tan colored building and further down the hill is where Jonathan goes to school!

Daily Life in Goroka

We are still getting used to the "cold" mountains of Goroka! Jonathan is getting a lot of use out of his new bathrobe!!

The kids helping Dad organize the Guesthouse workshop

Helping Dad get his four wheeler up and running!


Jonathan's first lost tooth!

This jungle gym is right outside our new home!


A very cold morning, 55 degrees F. Jonathan is wearing all 4 of his sweatshirts and 3 pairs of pants!

Move to Goroka in the Highlands!

Getting ready to fly to our new home and ministry in the Highlands of PNG!! Naomi and Libby's last time to play together for a while.




The Guesthouse at the NTM Centre in Goroka where we serve every day!


Nate, Jacob and I cooking for guests. Nate, our good friend, ran the guesthouse for 6 months and trained us in our new ministry. We are so thankful that he was the one training us! I actually trained him to run the Interface kitchen 10 years ago! Crazy how God works!

Dinner for 16 as missionaries came out of the bush to bring their dorm kids to school and have a bit of a break.

Happy July 4th!

 And now the three Americans in our family are enjoying Independence Day! We did more packing for our move! Plus Jacob's four-wheeler took a ride in the Kodiak airplane and arrived in Goroka safely!






Four-Wheeler flies to the Highlands...

Jacob spent many hours getting the four wheeler ready to fit onto the Kodiak airplane.

And so it was quite easy to push into the airplane!

It just fit! After taking off one back tire, as planned! This will be quite handy to have at the NTM Centre in Goroka as the centre is quite large and Jacob will need to get around quickly to fix things.

Happy Canada Day!

 Here are the three Canadians in our family! We love to have fun telling the kids about the Holidays back home! We didn't do much on Canada day except pack for our big move to the Highlands though. And of course they wore all the red and white they could find in the house. :)
