JoeMo Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 That is sooo sad! AFM is my favorite SDA self-supporting ministry. Susan Payne was a guest in our home just last month. Please pray for the Lello family and for AFM. This will severely impact their work in New Guinea. Quote
Woody Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 This makes me very sad. Why bother to pray for missionaries when this happens? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Woody Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 CGMEDLEY thank you for posting this article---this is sad we need to pray for his wife and 2 daughters dgrimm60 As for me dgrimm - I will now withhold my prayers because if I pray for them - it might cause them to die. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Moderators Jeannieb43 Posted November 30, 2012 Moderators Posted November 30, 2012 The news article doesn't say specifically how he died. I worry some because the area of Papua New Guinea is known to be populated with cannibals. I hope my fears are unwarranted.

Woody Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 “He was killed while felling trees near his project site among the Ama people in the Sepik Province of Papua New Guinea, Monday, November 26, 2012.” Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Windsor Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Woody? What kind of remarks are those? Did God ever promise that the righteous would never encounter death? How many of the OT prophets and the NT apostles met an unnatural death? Quote Remember Adventists Online?
BobRyan Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 That is sooo sad! AFM is my favorite SDA self-supporting ministry. Now here we can agree on something. My family and I have been supporting AFM for more than 20 years. I am very sad to see this happen to the AFM family. These people are truly inspiring. in Christ, Bob Quote John 8:32 - The Truth will make you free“The righteousness of Christ will not cover one cherished sin." COL 316.

Yes, JoeMo this sad event will most likely put a cloud of sadness over the work in New Guinea, and certainly the Lello family. We should pray for their courage and well being. AMF is a good ministry.
