I will keep this thread updated when more reports come in. The shaking continued, as I wrote, for around a minute. It was one of the longer earthquakes I've experienced. However, our windows didn't rattle, nothing fell off shelves.

The dog was a mite concerned.

I just saw on the map where it was; it appears to be in the middle of the Baliem Valley, on the northern edge of “the highlands”. From that, I’m not expecting any or no damage.

I’m on the coast, in Sentani where the airport is. Specifically, if you can find the Hillcrest International School on Google earth, I’m in the apartment on campus closest to the pine trees. LOL!

I’m hoping the water stayed in the swimming pool. Probably did.

AHhhhhhhhhh just found your website. AWESOME!!!
My brother was a missionary with Sudan Interior Missions in French West Africa for many years. His children were sent to a Missions School.
Do you teach?

Jemian,

New Tribes missionaries Bud and Bonnie Morton came and presented at our church - interesting part of the world if a bit shakey sometimes.

FRegards,

The epicenter is actually about 100 miles away. Not surprising.

It sure is caww. I’ve been looking at Hillcrest International School and wow...a great place and ministry.
I grew up in my younger years ( 72 years now) in the Christian Missionary Alliance Church. I notice one of their sponsoring churches is CMA. Brother was a CMA missionary before he became involved in Sudan Interior Missions.

Here is the Hillcrest link.

I teach students of NTM workers. I go diving with the adults when they’re out of the interior. Fantastic group of people and very, very committed to the Lord. I love ‘em!
