Spud





It seems that Harold has been working along side a real celebrity. Spud and his wife Myrtle are a MAPS couple here from Missouri.

Spud was part of a team from MAPS that traveled to New Guinea to build a new construction bridge over a dangerous ravine with a river at the bottom. Picture on left is Nathan Deck (Spud), Avon & Debra Fowler, Tom Trumbo, and Gerald Jackson standing on the newly built bridge. This was the first time MAPS had been in New Guinea.

After a seven year old boy was killed trying to rebuild the old bridge (see photo on right) and a seventeen year girl drown, the AG missionaries teamed with Wycliff to earn the money for a new bridge.

Spud says "Hi" and to tell you that you're missing all the fun.
