We're getting way too used to this. By now we're pretty much able to sort through stuff and move it from one place to the next in our sleep. Our most recent move took us from Univ. City up to San Marcos where we will hopefully be able to settle in for a while. Well, for about a year anyway. In the midst of moving life the pace of life is picking up as school nears for the kids. Bekah is now in volleyball two-a-day practices at Tri-City Christian, and the 4 trips back and forth mean everything else is scheduled accordingly. Diana is in the midst of registering at Palamar College to take some prerequisite courses she will need for nursing school. I am getting the office set up and hopefully will be getting into Nakui Bible translation work before long.
For those needing our address, it is now 671 Corte Loren, San Marcos, CA 92069. Phone # is 760-597-0728.
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."
