Shalom, dear all!
Thank you for faithfully praying for us. We have finally fulfilled the commitment of making the baptism robes. And God made me learn a good lesson on team building.
各位代禱勇士，收信平安。
感謝大家忠心為我們代禱。我們終於把之前允諾的受洗袍製作事工做完了。神也透過這件事讓我學習到團隊建造的寶貴功課。
We were informed last Friday that our flight on January 8th was canceled though we had paid for it. Thankfully we will get the full refund of the fee. But now we are facing difficult choices:
上星期五航空公司通知我們，我們原本訂好機位也付了費用的一月八日航班被取消了。幸好這次我們會得到全額退費。然而，現在得面臨困難的選擇：
Plan A: To stick with the original route with slight alternation. The flights of this route in later January are still available at the moment. But we have been told this week that this route contains high risks of personal safety.
方案一：維持原來的航線稍作修改。這個航線一月份稍晚的班機目前還訂得到。但是這星期我們的朋友告知，這個航線對我們的人身安全有很大的威脅。
Plan B : To take another route. Then we can book the later flight of January. But the allowed time for flight transfer is too short. And the price of plan B is 1,000 USD more each than plan A. And it will be 3.5 times of the price as what we had paid before the pandemics of COVID-19.
方案二：採用另一個航線。那麼，我們可以訂到一月份稍晚的機位，但轉機時間著實太短。方案二的機票價格比方案一的價格多出每人美金一千元。是我們在新冠肺炎疫情之前所付機費用的三點五倍。
Kellen and I went to a museum on Monday. Among so many items that we couldn’t finish admiring in one day, what caught the eyes of both of us were the music instruments of PNG, the Kundu and the Garamu that we were familiar with but hadn’t seen for 2 years…Well,… You might have felt what I feel.
我和Kellen星期一去參觀一所博物館。在一整天都看不完的物件當中，吸引我們兩人目光的竟然是我們既久違又熟悉的新幾內亞樂器：一種叫做「昆度」的小鼓以及一種叫做「加拉姆」的大鼓(中文又稱「豁鼓」)。……寫到這裡，您或許可以稍稍體會我的心情。
Please remember us in your prayers.
敬請在禱告中記念我們：
1. Our flight on January 8th has been canceled. May God guide us in deciding the route, repurchasing the flight tickets.
我們一月八日的班機已經被取消。願神引導我們決定航線、重新購買機票。
2. We are working on finding a long-term- durational medical evacuation insurance package. May God guide us to find one that we can afford.
我們正在尋找長期程的醫療撤退險。求神引導我們找到價錢合宜的醫療撤退險。
3. May God bless PNG and enable the people to be willing to take the wise epidemic prevention measures.
新幾內亞的新冠疫情仍然吃緊。願神賜福新幾內亞，使人民願意採取有智慧的防疫措施。
4. May God’s Spirit work among us in the one-to-one reaching out course “D2B”.
求神的靈親自在「從懷疑到相信」一對一佈道課程當中動工。
All for Him
願神得榮耀
