Pray for Banaro

WARAN; Papua New Guinea; 3,000. The advisors to this project were called away to other duties for part of last year due to an extreme shortage of personnel. Some were also experiencing severe health issues. Pray that the advisors will be freed from other responsibilities and will be able to return to full-time work with the Waran team. Lift up the team in prayer as they revise the remaining shorter books of the New Testament and begin the process of consultant checking. Ask God to help the village churches fully support Samuel, the main Waran translator, so he can give his full-time attention to the translation. Pray that the Waran people will move forward with new literacy initiatives as they see work on the New Testament continue. Ask God to raise up new financial partners for the translation project. www.pbtpng.org

WARAN; Papua New Guinea; 3,000. An ambitious strategy to finish within the next three years will certainly require the translation team to depend on God in all things. Pray that the team will maintain a good balance between family relationships, translation work, and their main profession of tending gardens. Ask God to provide for all their needs. Several members of the team have had health problems; pray for complete healing. www.pbtpng.org
