Seth and Kaitlyn Sanford minister among the Konomala people group of Papua New Guinea. Recently a young man in the Konomala church named Totirip died in a tragic accident, and his parents Anita and Keti faced pressure from their community to act in anger and demand “justice.”

“In the end, Satan’s focused attempts to paralyze the church were a brilliant failure. Keti and Anita are stronger than ever in their weakness. The church is closer together and more confident than ever in Jesus and the good life available in Him.

“It’s certainly not because of anyone’s great strength or ability … but because of Jesus. In the midst of pain and tragedy, He is better.

“Pray that we keep growing together as a church. ... Pray for Keti and Anita as they are still grieving the loss of Totirip. Pray that the church would continue loving them well.”
