Every six weeks or so we head out to a Kemtuik village on Sunday. On this occasion Philip shared from Ephesians 2: Allah ada bangun juga - God is also building.
'He came and preached peace to you who were far away [the gentiles] and peace to those who were near [the jews]. For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.' Eph 2.17-22.
Phil joined in practising some Christmas carols after the service.
Lunch was simple and good: rice, papeda (the staple in Papua, made from flour extracted from sago trees and looks like glue), ubi (kind of sweet potato), greens, sweet warm tea, corn and fish.

Those metal bowls, especially the one with the green edge and flowers printed on it are just like the bowls we see heaps of in PNG!
