We haven’t been the only missionaries busy learning heart language. We are blessed to work with others who have been through the same marathon as us to learn to speak a minority language to a high standard.
In a country as linguistically diverse as Papua New Guinea, what even is heart language though? This video from NTM PNG takes a look at the question.
With the goal being a mature church among the Kovol people, the Kovol language is an essential, indispensable tool. We, as missionaries, needed to learn the unwritten Kovol language. A friend of ours put together a video to think about how that works, and Kovol features in the video 🙂
The Kovol team, consisting of our two families, works as part of a larger team in NTM PNG. A friend of ours put together this video that is worth seeing to get the big picture idea of what we’re working towards.
Our last team video introducing the Kovol work was made back in 2019. We decided it was a good time to update the video that sits on our site’s home page.
As we prepare to leave Kovol next week to visit family back in Europe we took a moment to think back over the last 3 years we have spent here.
We put together a quick video showing off some of the sights of our recent literacy kick-off. It’s an exciting milestone in the Kovol work. Bring on the first literacy class!
I finished full-time language study of the Kovol language 5 months ago. So what’s been happening since then? We put together a quick video to recap things.
Just before we head out of Kovol for our annual conference we took the time to shoot a quick update video. If you’ve been reading the blog it’s nothing new, but it’s always nice to see our faces right? We also don’t assume and expect that everyone keeps up 🙂
Gerdine hiked down to a Kovol garden 3 hours away and spent the night there as part of her language study. She filmed a little bit of her journey and talked about it – in Dutch, but don’t worry there are English subtitles 🙂
