Kevin & Gertrude are missionaries to Papua New Guinea. For the last three weeks Kevin and Gertrude have been working with VITAL. This project is similar to NITI which is a cluster language project to provide Papua New Guineans with the training needed to translate the Bible into their own language.

Here at VITAL they are working with nine different language groups. Gertrude is heading up the literacy portion of this course. Because AIDS/HIV has become more and more of a problem here in PNG the first few days we worked on translating a booklet to help to educate the people prevent the spread of the disease.
