Papua New Guinea
Greg and Laura have been involved in church planting and bible translation projects for four decades. Having completed the Waxe New Testament, Greg and Laura continue to support translation projects worldwide and an ongoing support ministry to the Waxe churches through New Tribes Mission. Greg is an international bible translation consultant who travels widely to check, improve and approve translation projects heading toward publication. Laura develops literacy and bible teaching materials for the Waxe elders as they help the believers toward maturity in Christ. As they can, they continue to travel to Papua New Guinea to encourage the Waxe church.
Please PRAY…
- Safety and good health for Greg as he travels to remote areas, and for safety and wisdom for Laura and Aubrey as they remain home in Colorado Springs
- Hearts would be changed and churches planted by means of God’s Spirit using faithful, accurate and natural bible translations in those language groups blessed to have them
- The thousands of language groups without Scripture in their heart language would soon have it for their own
- The Waxe Church’s continued growth in truth, grace and love, lived out daily in their very remote community.
