Landslide

March 3rd

There is one main road which connects the major cities in the highlands of Papua New Guinea – the Highlands Highway. The road is one of the best roads in the country, in terms of connecting different communities and allowing people to travel all over. However, this morning, a landslide has covered up the road - probably caused by the immense amount of rain and sudden downpours in this past week. The landslide killed pedestrians and covered over 2 buses which were on the road. The latest news is that it will be a while before the road is passable again. Pray for wisdom in what to do as the translators here use that road to get home. We need to know what to do and we need to be able to get them home to their families. For now, we can simply wait and hope that the news gets better…
