Dear Brethren,
    Greetings once again from Port Moresby in the precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We pray that you are all doing well.
    This past month we were able to finish the final proofing on the Revelation commentary.  When I got out the digital copier that we have in order to start the printing process, I found several problems with the machine.  Many of the rubber and plastic parts and belts had disintegrated due to the heat and humidity that we have here in the tropics.  I am in the process of locating the necessary parts and will try to fix the machine myself.  It is my hope that we can proceed with the printing in the near future.  The book contains 110 full size pages and we hope to print around 200 copies or as many as we are able.  We will be using plastic binders to put the book together.  Several of the brethren said they would help with the collating and binding.
    The worship services at the church in Port Moresby are continuing to go well.  Brother Norman Malu and I have both been preaching on practical Christianity.  One of the security guards at our apartment complex has started attending services with us.  He’s also asked for materials to read.  His name is Jackson and he’s from a town along the coast called Kerema.
    After numerous phone calls and e-mails to different shipping companies here in Port Moresby, I am no closer to getting estimates or quotes on moving expenses than when I started.  I am having difficulty finding anyone who is willing or able to follow up on my request.  I plan to go talk to different people and see if they can get the ball rolling, so to speak.  Our target date to move is May, the Lord willing.
    Brother Norman and I are praying about taking a trip to the Highlands in early April.  We would like to deliver copies of the Revelation study, as well as have an opportunity to visit with and encourage the pastors and churches there before I leave the country.  If the Lord wills, we will fly to the town of Tari and then hire a vehicle to take us to the Pori area.
    Thank you once again for your continued love, prayers, encouragement, and support for the Lord’s work in PNG.
    Love in Christ,
    Frank R. James
