7.5 years ago, I came as the new doctor and benefited from the wisdom of those who had come before me – Andy, Susan, Scott, Bill and Jim. Their investment in me has molded and shaped me into the missionary physician I am today, having learned much along the way. Now I find myself as one of the older missionaries who gets the opportunity to help guide and teach some of our new doctors (Katherine, Ben, Mark, Ted and Imelda) as they are being molded formed into missionary physicians. We all have different talents and different interests in medicine, but we are all here to serve the suffering and hurting in PNG. Together we help to shine the light of Christ a little brighter in Papua New Guinea. I am thankful to be a part of this missionary family and this team of doctors.

New Hospital Mural
Over Christmas, Rachel Thompson’s brother, Nate and his wife Jill, came and visited Rachel, Jordan and Miles. Nate is a professional artist, doing mostly chalk drawings, but was willing to put his artistic skills to use. In a short period of time, he created this amazing mural depicting our hospital and the work that we do being the hands and feet of Christ. He was able to bring together a number of different parts of our ministry from doctoring, to CBHC, to our nurses, to the patients themselves and lab and maintenance, and make them all one under Jesus. He did a really great job. It is now being placed just outside our outpatient waiting area for all to see as they come to the hospital. Thanks so much Nate and Jill.
