It is our day of fun today on the Island of Papau New Guinea. No surgery today so we took a trip to a beautiful waterfall on the island.

Next Mission YWAM Liberty Ship in Papau New Guinea! ( 5/3-5/20,2019)
The rate of blindness and low-vision in Papua New Guinea is the highest in the Pacific. A national survey carried out in 2017 found an estimated 5.6 per cent of adults aged over 50 were blind, and two out of every three people with refractive error did not have the right glasses.
Since many of the islands in Papau New Guinea are remote without roads we will be on the Liberty Ship transporting patients by dingy for eye surgical care
