Fun Facts about Serving in Vanuatu:    


We are leaving shortly to begin our fifth Mission Corps/Global Missions assignment where we will serve in the Asia-Pacific Region on the South Pacific island of Vanuatu, which has a population of 264,652.  So, we will not be alone.  We have been invited to teach English courses at the South Pacific Nazarene Theological College and begin Conversational English Groups as an outreach for the church.

Vanuatu What Who?

Vanuatu is East of Australia, written in red

Vanuatu is an island nation located in the middle of the South Pacific; it is an archipelago consisting of close to 82 small sized islands, 65 of which are inhabited. It lies 600 miles to the west of Fiji and 250 miles to the northeast of New Caledonia and is about three quarters of the way from Hawaii to Australia. (Islands.com) It's way out there, folks!
Actually, you might be more familiar with Vanuatu because "Outwit, Outplay, Outlast: Survivor, South Pacific" Season 2004 was shot there. (...but you probably don't watch that...)
We are traveling to Vanuatu for our next mission assignment where we will live for 2 months and teach at a college on the island.

This assignment began with a conversation on a bench last June in Indianapolis when Linda sat down to post some photos on Facebook.
