Life – a journey worth embracing

By Helen Beringen | 0 comment | Categories: Mission Workers, Papua New Guinea, Volunteers and Supporters

Anyone who has willingly hiked 1100 kilometres has to love the journey. For 68-year-old Queenslander Anne Maczkowiack, walking the 800 kilometre Camino De Santiago trail across Spain was only a part of a post-retirement reward in 2014. She and husband Robert decided to add an extra 300 kilometres to start from Barcelona. That says something […]

Serving in a Global Context

By Mick Hauser | 0 comment | Categories: Bible Studies

In our ‘modern’ world, a common perception is that we are able to connect globally more than ever before. Smart phones, satellites, cyberspace and airplanes make this an easy presumption. Nevertheless, is it true? The bible speaks of a connectedness that far outweighs our handheld devices and all manner of technological connectivity. READ: Matt 28: […]

Doing all through the power of God

By Hanna Schulz | 0 comment | Categories: Bible Translation, Mission Workers, Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea (PNG), where I work, is Australia’s nearest neighbour, a former Australian territory, and home to about 12% of the world’s languages, which is a lot of languages in one country! It is a diverse, challenging and welcoming country. I work in Gulf Province with the Kope people, where three times a year […]

What is hope in a time like this?

By Tayla Priebbenow | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia, Volunteers and Supporters

We live in a world where you don’t need to look far to find discouragement. Australia’s current bushfire crisis has devastated so many in our nation. It has touched the lives of many and the hearts of even more. While there have been countless acts of inspiring heroism and generosity, the crisis can seem insurmountable. […]

The sights and sounds of Synod in Papua New Guinea

By Bishop David Altus | 0 comment | Categories: Papua New Guinea, Volunteers and Supporters

‘The sound of random groups singing from huts on the hillside, drums beating, the generator that kicked in for limited hours of power, heavy rain each night, and a pig outside my window, put me to sleep each night’. In 12 January 2020, Bishop David Altus represented the LCA at the Synod of the Evangelical […]

Love that offers hope

By Nipaporn Kunaruk and Anne Storstein Haug | 0 comment | Categories: Thailand, Volunteers and Supporters

It reads like a classic love story. It’s a story that is repeated in countries all around the world, in wealthy communities and poor communities, in families that don’t know Jesus and in families in love with Jesus. Mim is 24 years old and she comes from the beautiful countryside in Thailand. An only child […]

Teaching ‘Christology’ at STT

By Dr Greg Lockwood | 0 comment | Categories: Indonesia, Volunteers and Supporters

It was my joy and privilege to spend two weeks with the staff and students at Sihabonghabong. Soon after our course was underway, one of the girls called me ‘Grandpa’ and this rapidly took off. In response I called them my ‘cucu’ (choo-choo), my grandchildren. This was typical of the affectionate way I was welcomed […]

One true source of peace

By Rev Matt Anker | 0 comment | Categories: Cambodia

If we were to believe everything Hollywood has to say about Buddhism, we could be excused for thinking it was a religion epitomising peace and tranquillity. Surrounded by lush gardens in idyllic settings, people practising Buddhism are depicted as having achieved a more enlightened, less burdened way of life. But that is very different to […]

True beauty is joy of Jesus

By Rev Matt Anker | 0 comment | Categories: Malaysia Peninsula

The Cameron Highlands in Central Malaysia are breathtakingly beautiful. Untouched jungles border manicured tea plantations, monkeys frolic on the side of the road, and tourists stop for ‘selfies’ in front of stunning waterfalls. Every turned corner presents a view more beautiful than the last. But, on a recent visit there with Program Officer Erin Kerber, […]

God’s real miracle

By Rina Tobing | 0 comment | Categories: Indonesia, Schools

I’m Rina Tobing, a 12th grade student who attends HKBP P.Siantar High School. Life is not as easy as we think, and it is not as difficult as we feel. It has lots of twists and turns we never planned. I have always believe in Jesus. He is the light of my path and his […]
