Karl - Remembering Dibagat



My family have served with Wycliffe for eight years in Papua New Guinea and have many colleagues who served in the Philippines.  This was my first trip to visit the Philippines and Dibagat village.  I first learned about the trip in February when Nard mentioned he needed a Satellite phone and then asked if I would like to go.  It didn’t take much arm twisting to convince me, but the finances were in the Lord’s hands.  God did supply the funds needed for me to go on the trip from many very generous and committed Christians.



Karl finally arrived in Dibagat and relaxing with a cup of coffee at Rudy’s house along with Brian and Vernon!

It was a privilege for me to serve the Isnag people in Dibagat village with the construction of the church walls.   I specifically enjoyed meeting and getting to know the team members and Rudy.  The work was hard, but very rewarding to see the completed photos of the new church building.
