Thank you for having to discuss the K...Malum Nalu. <br />Thank you for having to discuss the Koki Lutheran project in your blog. Koki is historical, it has a place for Lutherans especially on POM. Even for visitors out of town or overseas, Koki has a special place. <br />One thing that always concerns me when I travel into worship is: The location is very awkward, especially when there is the interchanging time of the Services on Sunday Morning. Feel like walking in the market place in Lae on Saturday morning, pushing, shoving in the rush hour to find a seat in the pews. There is also the problem with parking. The location of the Church is hidden away, in a back alley. It is hidden from any new comer wanting to visit or come for service. <br />The membership of Koki has some prominent Papua New Guineans, lawyers, Accountants, Dept Secretaries, Business men/women and Politicians and diplomats. I am sure they can contribute to face-lifting or even moving to a more ideal location. <br />Lutheran Church has contributed to a lot to development in PNG. There are many Lutherans in places of Authority who can give of their time, resources and knowledge to meaningfully contribute. <br />Secondly, out of all the Lutheran Congregations in Port Moresby, Koki would be ranked as affluent congregation. The membership can, I am sure afford to build up the Church, rather than be like a beggar or having Namba Wan Trophy become their offering boy. <br />I am sure if the members faithfully paid their 1/10 Tithes, this project will be nothing. This should be a challenge. Do we continue to be beggars and borrowers in our rich country? Do we have to send a donor-funding request? We can do it. We have the people, the resources, and the money. We have it all! It is at the finger tips of the congrgants…<br /><br />Bapa BomotengBapahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12068018315942551582noreply@blogger.com
