Please pray with us about these needs for the work of tribal church planting in Papua New Guinea.

DATE	NEED	DETAILS	DATE ANSWERED
14 FEB 2004	2nd PILOT IN WEWAK	The Sepik region is a busy flight program and typically requires two pilots to effectively meet the needs of our missionaries. Please pray for the provision of three qualified pilots for ministry here in Papua New Guinea. Pray for laborers.
14 Feb 2004	Aviation Maintenance	We greatly need at least three full time aircraft maintenance technicians to join us. Please pray for qualified laborers.	Mark Menne & family arrived in April 2005 to assist.
23 May 2003	Aircraft Refurbishment P2-NTJ	In 2002 NTMA purchased two old Beech King Air C90 aircraft from the Australian Royal Flying Doctor Service. One of those has been modified and refurbished to meet our needs. The other sits without engines waiting for new engines, propeller, baggage and speed modifications totaling nearly half a million dollars. Please pray for the finances and personnel to make this aircraft operational.
May 2004	Hangar Repair	The NTMA hangar in Wewak is in need of much repair due to salt water corrosion. Pray for laborers to come help remove the corrosion, weld new roof support structures, replace tin on the roof, repair and replace lights, and repair the electrical system. We have tried to hire local companies to do some of this work without success. Funds are available for the work. Laborers are needed.	Nov 2004 We were able to hire a local business to do most of the work. Other repairs pending.
June 2004	Supply Buyer	The missionaries in remote locations order their groceries and supplies by email or radio. Many of the items needed are purchased by a Supply Buyer who will drive into town and work with local merchants to obtain the items needed. In addition the Supply Buyer helps load aircraft and transports passengers and cargo between the Supply base and the airport. Please pray for laborers.	May 2005 Joachim Staat & Family arrived to fill this role.
June 2004	New Aircraft	Fuel for our piston engine aircraft is becoming increasingly more difficult and expensive to obtain. We expect to move toward turbine aircraft in the future. We can accomplish more work per pilot with a larger aircraft. Please pray for the provisions needed to purchase these aircraft in the near future. We have a specific aircraft in mind which should cost about USD$1.2 million each. (Delivery 2006 or 2007.) With matching funds and discounts we can purchase Kodiak aircraft through the end of 2005 for the price of $375,000 each. (First delivery to PNG after 2009.) See http://questaircraft.com/mission.htm http://www.ntm.org/give/give_project_details.php?project_id=29
June 2004	Workers	Send a blank email to png-needs-list-on@ntm.org.pg to view our other needs for personnel. Pray for laborers.
June 2004	Scaffolding	Scaffolding needed for maintenance of NTMA hangar in Wewak.	Hired local company.
June 2004	Auto Hoist	We have seven or more ministry vehicles in Wewak. Without competent vehicle mechanics available in Wewak, the vehicle maintenance falls on us. Without proper equipment vehicle maintenance is much more difficult and time consuming. Parts are often ordered from Australia. A vehicle lift or hoist would greatly assist our various ministries in Wewak.
June 2004	House construction	Goroka: Work team needed for housing construction. Two small teams from the USA and Australia came to Goroka for several weeks to begin construction. By the end of June 2004 the framing should be up and the tin roof on. They expect to wrap the house in plastic and leave it for the next team whenever there is one. Work to be done: Siding, windows, interior walls, cabinets, wiring, plumbing, plywood finish work, drainage ditches, cement work, painting and a 8x40' structure for the back. Pray for laborers. Goroka has a wonderful climate with temperatures in the 90's (F) during the day and 60's at night.	July 2005. A team of men from Australia came to Goroka to assist with construction. More assistance needed.
June 2004	Key Cutting machine	Unfortunately locks and keys are very much a part of our lives here in PNG. With constantly changing personnel, facilities and equipment, keys play a major role in enabling each person to function. Often we need to send a key to a distant city or out of the country to get a duplicate. No locksmiths here.
June 2004	Security Fence	Due to increased criminal activity we need to install more secure fencing on part of the Wewak property. Pray for laborers to help with installation.	May 2005. Half of the fence has been installed. It dramatically reduced our number of burglary incidents.
