Samaritan's Land

We are back in the States now and are trying to get caught up on everything while recovering from jet lag. The next few posts will have a lot of pictures so you can see what we were writing about during the trip.

The last day we had in PNG was spent in meetings with two members of parlament. The main reason for these meetings is to get a government title for our land in Wewak. The Pasa Clan gave Samaritan Aviation about five acres that sits on a green hill above the airport and looks over the bay and out to the Bismark Sea.

We plan to build our base of operation on this land and and have been working on a government title for three years. This trip was very successful in part because we were able to make significant progress towards a land title.

One picture is of our land and the other is of us standing with the Minister of Lands...Dr. Temu.
