Dr. Sawyer Serving with Samaritan's Purse

Dr. Sawyer Serving with Samaritan's Purse
Papua New Guinea

The paparazzi are here...

There was a big meeting for the full time missionary staff this morning, so our older kids, Michael, Andrew, and Lindsey Brass, all helped to watch the younger kids on the station.  At one point we had 12 kids at our house.  Thanks to Frisbees, balls and a DVD of Mr. Poppers Penguins, they kept everyone entertained and busy.

After making rounds at the hospital I drove into Mount Hagen to pick up supplies for our upcoming trip next Thursday to the Hewa tribe.  We then drove to the airport to pick up the five men from the Samaritan's Purse (SP) media team.
These five men will be shooting various aspects of SP's involvement in ministry in Papua New Guinea.  Although they had flown on sequential flights from North Carolina to Los Angeles to Sydney to Port Moresby to Mount Hagen, PNG, they didn't look too bad.  Teresa spent the day in the kitchen preparing an incredible meal for twelve of homemade tacos and even snicker-doodle cookies and jello cake for dessert.  After 36 hours of airline food, the SP team devoured their meal, showered and went to bed.
