What do all these smiling people have in common? They are story-tellers who long to tell partners, family, friends, and even strangers what God is doing in Papua New Guinea on their upcoming visits to their home countries. By trade, they are trainers, managers, accountants, teachers, engineers, pilots, and translators of God's precious words, but they are united in vision to see the people of Papua New Guinea transformed by the translated Word of God. We spent the mornings of one week together in a "furlough workshop" and gained new appreciation for each other's roles in the task of Bible translation. We Clarks look forward to sharing our God-sightings with you on our upcoming furlough in the US from June 2022 through the Spring of 2023. Will you promise to share your God sightings with us in return?
Here's a head start on something Nathan might share with you, but we're also confident that he's got some new stories up his sleeve from his cross-cultural experience at the International ALERT Academy where he continues to learn and grow.
