I spent two weeks teaching cultural anthropology at Talua for students in the B.Min. program. It was rewarding to see the lights come on as they realized the ways in which their own animistic background affects their Christian worldview. After that I went deep into the jungle. I passed the quonset huts Mitchner described, and could not miss the eerie "mile a minute" vine that was introduced by the military and has now taken over Espiritu Santo Island. We went through four language groups in 20 miles, to Angor village where I'm checking the Merei translation of Luke 19-24. Here's a picture of Angor village and the consultant check.
