Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.  Acts 4:12

May we never lose the wonder of Christmas and the tremendous gift of Salvation. At this time of year we reflect on all that God has done. Praise the Lord for giving us a great year here at Interface. Our kids have almost finished another busy term. We are so grateful for our mission school and our teachers. The kids will have Dec.15-Jan.10 holiday. We are looking forward to some R&R time too! This break we will spend some time at our mission center,& then go to Madang for one week. Madang is a costal town, so we will be taking in some beach days and relaxing at our guesthome. Good news! Our co-workers, Travis & Nikki Ray, are on their way in January! Pray for them as they prepare to say goodbye to family & friends and travel here. Pray for their adjustments to a new country,culture and Language.   Keep praying for the Bena people. So many here are without hope and a future with Jesus. Pray for the Bena church. We have a small handful of believers. They are meeting every Sunday and then every Wednesday they also meet to share with whoever will listen to the Bible lessons. Pray that God’s word will become clear to them…understanding the Gospel message. Pray too for a missionary to live among the Bena, the work is not finished.

Please continue to pray for our INTERFACE TEAM. We are excited as we make plans for this next year and all the individuals who will come to Interface programs. Pray with us as we grow & unite together. Pray for the Scholls and Janie Miles who are both on home assignment and will return Feb/March. Pray that they have a refreshing time with family & friends.

Pray for Mike & Cherie Peachey and Anna Botthcer as they prepare to come to Interface in January/February.  The Peachy’s & Anna are associates coming to help with maintenance & in the kitchen. They are waiting on PNG paperwork.
