Sunday, January 31

Torrential rains fell all night and continued all day today. We’re hearing rumors that the SI Marine issued a “stay in port” warning last night and that at least some of the bridges between Honiara and Komibo, where we usually land in the motorboat, have been washed out. This could certainly alter our travel plans for this week! Prayers appreciated as we seek to discern between rumors and the truth and as we work for good communication with SITAG.


The Marulaon Youth held Olivia’s farewell tonight. Olivia has built so many sweet memories since she arrived in the village as a five-year-old. I love the Melanesian value on relationships and their goodbye customs that give good closure and a meaningful farewell, just in case your paths don’t cross again.
