AUSTRALIA DAY 2007

Australia Day! What does it mean to you. This time last year we were in Papua New Guinea celebrating Australia Day. It's so amazing how patriotic you become when you are not in your home country. You stand by your country when you are not in it. You defend it.


What does being an Australian mean to you?


On another note my sister in law Amanda Hunt has just created a new online shop featuring minature bead all handmade and handcrafted all being authentic designs. You can visit her shop at www.wahmania.com and have a look under the subheading POLYCLARIFIC to browse through all the wonderful minatures she has made.

Seven ways HOW TO be involved in a Missionaries Life

There are seven ways in which we can be involved in a missionaries life and this is something that I have been looking at in regards to us being supported in Papua New Guinea and looking at it and seeing how I can get churches and individuals to see the inportance of these 7 ways.

1. Prayer Support
2. Financial Support
3. Material Support
4. Emotional Support
5. Providing Accountability
6. Build relationships with the fields Leadership
7. Follow the missionaries ministries and really feeling ownership of those ministries.

After looking over these I thought I wonder how many individuals and churches out there are fulfilling these 7 responsibilitys to there Missionaries.
