Papua New Guinea: Tensions have been running high in the Capital City of Port Moresby. International news agencies have been reporting on the conflict. We are requesting your committed prayer for a peaceful resolution.
Following is the update from our field leadership team:

In addition procedures are in place to help ensure continued safe operations at Kudjip mission station, Tuman college campus (MNTC, MNBC) and for those personnel traveling into our area.
We welcome you to join us in prayer for this challenging time and that our staff and leadership would have continued wisdom to deal with situations as they arise.”
