Papua New Guinea – The Effects of Change

“Recently we have had a lot of changes take place in this country that can affect both people and businesses. There has also been regional violence in the industrial province of Lae and we fear it may spill over into Port Moresby.

Pray that both the highlanders and the coastal people can live in harmony and that peace will prevail in this nation.”

In Romania, the CLC team are starting to focus increasingly on publishing.

Two new titles were released in January 2012 with hopes to see more books published during the course of the year. Another area of expansion could be in publishing, importing and reproducing Christian films, so they are currently looking for a company that can deal with all the paperwork that this would involve.

Pray for Mozambique: We continue to battle to provide an adequate supply of Bibles to Mozambique, at prices the people can afford. Please pray for Liz Patten (CLC’s Africa Regional Director) as she seeks to find solutions to this challenge in talking with publishers and distributors in Brazil and South Africa.

Also, please pray for our new shop in Beira that opened last year. Claudia, the German missionary there, went on home leave in December 2011 and will be gone for most of this year, leaving Jose to manage the bookshop by himself - with the Lord’s help, of course! - Photo of Jose & Claudia “Wherever we are, normal life has to be lived and God has to be part of that. The author sees her life as being ‘seasons’ that God takes her through.

She tells of her ‘normal’ life in Australia with her husband. Then God placed a longing in their hearts which couldn’t be ignored so preparation for the Himalayan mission field began. Naomi learned to choose to trust God, that He was in control. She doesn’t gloss over the hard times, writing interesting and humorous descriptions of incidents. She also tells of misunderstandings with those back home who do not share the experiences.

The contrast between the two countries challenges as to what satisfies - material possessions of this life? Or assurance of eternal life?

Altogether a good read.”
