14. Missionary Interviews--Ireland, Papau New Guinea, Peru, Africa
I love new guinea. It s my home. Missionary kids are Third culture kids. They growup in one culture, adopt another, and create their own.
http://www.lonnawilliams.com/missionaries.html
Interviews with Missionaries Africa, Ireland, Papua New Guinea, Peru, etc. Reprinted from the "Mountain News" "Uganda Mission Trip"
By Lonna Lisa Williams
Jan. 31, 2005
A combined team from Calvary Chapel Lake Arrowhead (CCLA) and Calvary Chapel Palm Springs (CCPS) recently returned from a short-term missions trip to Uganda, Africa.
"I went there with the expectation of serving and loving the people, but instead we were served," Pastor Tom Balli of CCLA explained. While his wife Sandi and older daughter Breanna had been to Uganda before, this was his first time to Africa.
"The Ugandan people showed me that what we need is Jesus and a personal relationship with Himnot projects or programs. They showed me the love of Jesus, reaching hearts. We here in the U.S. tend to miss out in simply seeing Jesus in others and sharing Jesus with others."
The team, which consisted of 32 people (7 from CCLA and the rest from CCPS) flew into Entebbe Airport on January 5. Their first experience with Uganda was in the capitol city of Kampala where "the amount of people and traffic is beyond description," Pastor Balli added. "And the poverty is beyond imagination, but the fact that the people are content is amazing."
Kampala is situated by famous Lake Victoria, one of the largest lakes in the world. The team was hoping to see the Wangaza Children's Choir (which charmed Lake Arrowhead last Fall), but time constraints prevented them.

Welcome
A few words: A personal welcome to Papau New Guinea by the Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea It is a pleasure to join the Minister for Culture and Tourism, and the Chief Executive of PNG Tourism Promotion Authority, in welcoming you to Papua New Guinea. A brief insight into what we believe is a truly wonderful holiday destination. It is designed for a worldwide distribution, and for those arriving on our shores. If you are looking for clean air, a natural environment, sun and open spaces - then you have made a wise choice in coming to Papua New Guinea. In a sense, we have yet to be 'discovered' by the tourism industry. I think this is in our favor for, unlike many other parts of the world, we have no overcrowded commercial resorts. There still retains its natural beauty, its long traditions and culture, and the warm friendliness of its people. It is a country we are promoting as one of 'adventure and excitement'.

16. Destinations: Land Based: PAPAU NEW GUINEA: The Highlands
The Southern Highlands is an area of Papua new guinea that was described in an understanding of the culture which is attuned to the land and its fauna.
http://www.worlddive.com/destin/land/PNG/highland.htm
PAPUA NEW GUINEA HIGHLANDS
'Papuan Wonderland'
The Southern Highlands
The Southern Highlands is an area of Papua New Guinea that was described in 1935 as the 'Papuan Wonderland' by explorer and patrol leader J. G. Hides, one of the first 'outsiders' to
have contact with the main groups living in the area. The description fits; the geography of the area ranges from steaming lowland rain forest to alpine tundra; classical volcanic cones, alluvial fans, gorges, glacial land forms and magnificent lakes.
One such lake is Kutubu, the unspoiled location of the major on-stream oil and gas fields operated by Chevron Niugini. Much of Mendi's development has been as a result of the comparatively recent mineral activity in the area, but in fact the first patrol station was set up in 1937 on Lake Kutubu, serviced by seaplanes, and it was the base from which almost all
exploration of the Southern Highlands took place before World War II.
However, economic development of the area only became possible in the 1970's when the Highlands Highway was extended into the province, reaching Mendi in 1974 and Tari not until 1977. Until this time the entire area was cut-off from the outside world so it is one of the least developed and culturally rich areas in the country.
As a tourist destination it offers jaded 'westerners' the unique opportunity to step back in time and develop an understanding of the culture which is attuned to the land and its fauna. Mendi, the Provincial administration centre, is little more than a small town surrounding a large airstrip, where, if an uninitiated tourist had been a fellow passenger on board the 19 seater aircraft when we landed, it would not have been a surprise if he suggested an immediate return flight. Even before the plane came to a standstill we were surrounded by thousands of people, many men waving bows and arrows and covered in mud, shouting and screaming;

Papua New Guinea : Land of adventure! As most of my friends out there know
I believe this is the #1 dive and adventure destination in the world. Based on this
self-inflicted state of mind, I have again brought to my many loyal followers another avenue to quench your thirst for something extraordinary, something to make you forget the westernized world exists.
Papua New Guinea Expeditions! Forget technology, fax machines, telephones, or laptop computers. Come experience the world of barefoot elegance, bamboo huts, beetle nut and fantastic boat diving! I have personally spent six months in the country researching the dive locations and cultural tours that are offered. PNG has been long regarded as one of the world’s best dive destinations by photographers, journalists and people like you and I, who want to experience that unique, unforgettable dive adventure. You will observe a true wilderness existence, a rarity left to be seen in only a few remote corners of today’s world.
Diving in PNG offers everything, from Pygmy Seahorses, sharks, and occasional Orca’s. The rest of the country offers dense virgin rain forests along with exotic birds and plant life. Experience rich tribal culture as seen in the everyday lives of the Huli wigman at Tari or take a cruise along the Sepik River, and the list goes on.

Papua New Guinea

General Information

Many phrases have been used to describe Papua New Guinea: Land of the unexpected; Land of a Thousand Cultures; the Last Unknown, but none of these can quite prepare visitors for the stunning diversity of this breath-taking country. Papua New Guinea is a land of amazing variety; nowhere else will you find lush tropical rainforest, pure white sandy beaches, cool misty highlands, balmy desert islands, traditional culture unchanged for thousands of years and modern recreational facilities in such close proximity and all so easily accessible from Australia, the South Pacific, Asia and the rest of the world.
Located just south of the Equator, mainland Papua New Guinea is divided by the rugged Owen Stanley Mountain Range, with peaks over 4000 m high. These mountains provide the source for mighty rivers - among them the Fly and the Sepik which wind their way through spectacular fertile landscapes on their journey to the sea, where the coastline is scattered with islands, atolls and coral reefs. With every different landscape you will discover many different cultures, which in many cases have remained unchanged for thousands of years. It is quite surprising how the artefacts, traditional dress, styles of living, music and dance are so specific to particular areas, with very little overlap from one region to another. And for the budding linguist, Papua New Guinea has over 700 distinct languages to choose from.
The underwater world of Papua New Guinea is certainly no less spectacular; the warm, clear waters all around the coast offering some of the best dive locations in the world. Stunning reefs, sunken wrecks, and brilliantly coloured coral and marine life leave even the most experienced diver in awe.

Papua New Guinea
William J. Gilmore-Lehne
Many different cultures originated in the islands of Papua New Guinea. Today people go to the islands to find a sense of a world of long ago and a feel for the place of their ancestors. A chief reason is that Papua New Guinea has been inhabited for perhaps 50,000 years by various Asian settler societies. Europeans arrived in the 1520sthe Portuguese explorer Jorge de Menezes. Later (1645), a Spanish explorer, Ynigo Oritz de Rexes, named it New Guinea because of similarities he perceived with people of the Guinea Coast of Africa.

Military or Mardi Gras?
Ready for Rio Once a year, since 1961, the Highlanders of PNG congregate and flaunt the amazing diversity that makes up this fascinating country. The Singsing was started as a nation building exercise to get the numerous tribes of the highlands to interact peacefully for the first time ever. Previously the only connection they made with each other was with a lethal weapon.
Huli Warriors
Bird of Paradise plumes The first contact the Highlanders made with the outside world was only in the 1930's. They had no concept of the Napoleonic ideal of the nation state. Even today, in many parts of PNG, loyalties are rarely extended beyond a tribe's wontoks or community.
