The Papua New Guinean Discovery

Between June 2, 2005 and August 7, 2005 I went to Papua New Guinea with Wycliffe Bible Translators. It was a time when God confirmed that He wants me there for His work. At the time I am a student at Davis College in New York State studying and preparing to go back to PNG full time.

More pictures from Folopa



This is the Haus Lutu (House of Worship in Tok Pisin) for the Folopa Village. You can see the outside in the post here. The men would be on the Right side of the floor and the women on the left side. Children would be mothers until around 6 and then the male children could be over on the right side of the church. One thing that is interesting to note is that the tithes and offerings are food. They pass a plate around, but most people bring food from the garden that way Pastor Paul does not have garden as much as he is preparing for the next week's sermon. The Old Testament coming to life.
