Leap a dozen timezones, cross an ocean or two, climb a few mountains and fly over a jungle and you'll find a Nagi village celebrating the life of a set of twins.





The celebration wasn't to commemorate their birth so much as it was to rejoice that both got to live.

For the missionaries endeavoring to share the Truth to these people, this birthday party held particular significance. Definitely one happy occasion! Even from the confines of my stuffy office thousands of miles away I was celebrating too, jumping for joy over the courage of one Nagi family taking in the unwanted newborn.

These two precious newborns are a testimony to the power of our Mighty God, and the prayers of faithful saints. "Its only space that separates us!" P. Bonhoeffer
