EBC Missionaries Of The Week: Ron & Nita Berglund

The Berglunds have been pursuing administration and leadership in Pontianak, Indonesia, the capital of the province of West Kalimantan, a city of over a million people.  Though continuing with leadership responsibilities, in 1998 they moved into the Semandang tribal area where they are still helping with Bible translation and discipleship of local church leaders.

After the martyrdom of the field chairman in 2004, Ron was volunteered to assume that responsibility on a temporary basis that has now lasted for seven years.  This has meant greatly increased travel around the field and more time away from mininstry to the Semandangies.  But it has kept him alive.
