We are very thankful to the Lord for blessing us with two fine sons: Joel and Jason. This newsletter features a few glimpses of the Last 18 years in Joels life. [The collage of photos does not appear here - it was unfortunately not digitized but produced photographically at the print shop] Shortly after Joel graduates in June, we will be returning to the USA for our normal one-year furlough. We want to thank you for enabling us to serve here in Papua New Guinea during this past field term. We could not be here except for your prayers and financial support. Here are some praise and prayer points:
