Pastor Blair Lemke, Young Adults Director for NNSW, shares with #RecordLive his experience at PNG for Christ. More than 70 years ago, Blair’s grandfather accepted a call to take the gospel to a remote village in Papua New Guinea. Blair returned to this same village to see the impact his grandfathers legacy had. He shares with us how it has shaped his own life and how we can take this pioneer missionary spirit into our spheres of influence.
