 at a newly completed airstrip in the highlands

 of Papua, Indonesia. Listen to missionaries

 Tim Ingles and Mike Wild tell about how the

 airstrip will enable believers like Liku to

May 2014: Joy about to board a MAF plane in Wamena.  

Missionaries Aviation Fellowship

My heart still weeps and cries for the Land of 

West Papua, for its independence and the pain 

my brothers and sisters are going through right

now! Father God, please come to their aid and 

hear our cries for deliverance! 

In Jesus' name.  Amen.

Today I asked my Papuan brother to translate 'Suffering 

Papua', and here it is by Alpheus Meage​.


Oh the land of West Papua, so beautiful and I 

admired so sweet land. The shining of land likes

 diamond. Oh the land of West Papua. Feeling

 demoralize my tears fall down and feeling 

brokenhearted. When will the end be to stop the 

suffering? Oh the birds of Paradise, let your

 wings fly and fly me away from this situation. 

Because I don't want see my people cry anymore 

in Papua. Oh Lord I lift up Papua into your hands.

Psalm 121:1-8
