Island Hopping...
That's exactly what happened as Dr. Becky Morsch, Rev. Harmon Schemlzenbach and Rev. James Johnson visited remote villages on tiny isolated islands across the island nations of Fiji, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands. Their mission was to survey the possibilities of starting CBHC (community based health care) ministries in the South Pacific. As a result of their trip, it was decided to start the first CBHC ministry on the South Pacific Field on the tiny island of Aniwa in August. Aniwa is one among hundreds of islands that make up Vanuatu. Fijian pastor, Rev. Aseri Quraivalu and his wife, will also attend the CBHC training and be equipped for developing CBHC in the various villages around the island of Kadavu. (To read more about the tiny island of Aniwa visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniwa_Island. or see Aniwa on Google Earth at 19degrees 15'26.39"S / 169 degrees 36'05.27" )

Retreat!

Thats exactly what the 12 Papua New Guinea District Superintendents and wives did for three days in the coastal town of Madang. It was an opportunity for iron to sharpen iron and for brother to encourage brother. The three days were filled with inspiration, challenge, molding strategy, and the encouragement that comes when brothers and sisters, faced with similar challenges, spend time together.
