How do you teach an adult to read and write?

Published by SteveStanley on

NTM PNG just put out a new video. Right now our team is wrestling with how to spell and construct Kovol verbs, we’re deep in the weeds discussing grammar points. This video was an encouraging little reminder of where we’re going with all this.

Thanks for sharing the video. I read an excellent book by Jack Crabtree (Tipping Our Kings) . It is great to see what he is doing now, and what you all will be doing soon. And what Philip’s parents have already done. Blessings as you keep pressing on.

Team formation video

NTM PNG are cranking out the videos. It's fun to see lots of Kovol footage being used, but I actually enjoy seeing all the other places a lot more. It's amazing to think about how many people God has worked in to form the network of different teams serving all over Papua New Guinea.

Life and Death

These last weeks and months have been marked by the deaths of people I know here in Kovol and back home in Germany. My two granddads died and also my dear aunt just a week ago. I miss my family in these times especially and I wish I could be there with them. I find great comfort knowing that my granddads and my aunt are now enjoying being with God their father, because they believed that Jesus died for them on the cross paying for all their sins, and then He rose again, conquering death. I know I will see them again when I leave this earth either when I die or when Jesus comes back. Tragically, the Kovol people lack this comfort in the face of death.

Stanleys in September

You may have noticed not much blogging activity from us recently. That's because we don't want our ReachKovol blog to be filled with our adventures here in the UK. We know people are praying for us though so we want to start posting a little more frequently now we're out of the hectic newborn phase. When we arrived back in the UK in January we entered during a national lockdown and got a taste of what life has been like. Even the libraries were closed! In April our twins were born, queue exhaustion and sleep deprivation for the next 4 months.
We're pulling out of that level of intensity (though twin babies at 6 months old are still tough!), and covid restrictions have mostly lifted so we're able to start enjoying the UK.
