News and stories about the Askew family ministry in Papua New Guinea
Welcome to our blog "The Nakui Jungle Beat". Just as Nakui people ring out an urgent message by rythmically hitting a hollowed out log or "Ow", we want to share an important message with you. What is our message? It is that through the grace of God, the Nakui people have found hope and meaning through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We hope this tool will allow us to pass along the story of how God's grace continues to shine in this remote corner of the PNG jungle. Thanks for visiting!

Askew Praise and Prayer
- Feb 9th: Well ... another broken bone in the Askew family. It's TJ again this time. He was up picking flowers in a tree and when a branch broke and he fell on his right shoulder. Besides some bruising, his shoulder seems fine. But his collar bone didn't fare so well and is fractured. We spoke with our doctor on the phone and doesn't think there's much he can do so we've got him in a sling and on pain meds and we'll let him heal up here in Wewak. Poor TJ is in a lot of pain tonight and it'll probably be a rough night's sleep. Thanks for your prayers.

Back-to-English Version of Nakui Romans 3:23,24
"We are all people who do bad actions. We all live down below, our bad actions are many. Therefore not one person can go and live with God in heaven. We live like that, but listen, God had mercy on us. Truly, he helped us without repayment. He sent his Son Jesus Christ to us people of the ground, in order to purchase our sins. He purchased them and now He calls those of us who believe this his straight men and women."
