Last Sunday, the scripture readings emphasized Jesus as our Shepherd.  So Katherine and I made fluffy cotton ball sheep with Hebrews 13:20-21 written on the back in Pijin to share with our catechists to let them know that we are praying for the Good Shepherd to equip them as they look after Marulaon Village.  Our creation got lots of laughs!

The whole language area is so dry right now.  School was dismissed on Wednesday until further notice because their rain tanks are empty.  And Chief Leonard told Aaron that every tank but ours is either empty or has only a few inches of water left.  Karumulun's rain tanks are empty, so they are coming over to Marulaon for water now.  Please continue to pray for a good balance of sun and rain for our area.

Aaron finally got over to Laola this morning and talked with their village chief to set up the accommodations for their workshop.  The translators will meet with Aaron for a review session from Thursday morning (May 22) through Saturday afternoon (May 24).  He returned around 10:00 and finished the morning by joining the village work day, grass knife in hand.

I love seeing the SI Pijin on the back of the sheep! Maybe I can use it to practice before I come. :-)
