Today, we got up at 4 AM to leave the hotel to go to the airport to make
our flight to Port Morsbey. We made it to Morsbey safely, and then Drew
split up from Collin and me. Just as we were leaving, Drew was talking
to a man about finding his luggage and the man thought that he had
actually seen Drew's bag at the airport already, so they were going off
to search for it. I do not know if they ever did find it, but we all
pray that they did for Drew's sake.
We flew an hour-and-a-half with
Bro. Matt to a village close to his, and then got on his Mule to ride
another hour to Kotidanga, Matt's village. We were given a tour by
Andrew, a young man who is here helping Matt.
Tomorrow, I am leaving
with Bro. Jason Ottosen to go help him build his house in one of the
neighboring villages. We leave at 5 AM to drive the hour back to the
plane for the trip. The entire flight will take only four and a half
minutes, but if we had to hike, it would take over twelve hours. I will
be staying with him for four days helping him to build his house before
Matt comes back and picks us up on Friday. Collin or Drew will have to
keep you updated because they do not have internet in the bush. I
appreciate everyone's prayers for us while we are here. I hope I have a
great report when I get back.

How exciting!

I agree with your mom! Lots of pictures are a must - scenery, nationals, the other missionaries, and never forget that YOU need to be in some (a lot) of them! So excited to hear how it goes! Stay safe!
