Welcome to the first Stockley family blog.
It's the end of October 2009 and we have been staying with Mission Aviation Fellowship (www.maf.org.au) in Nhulunbuy, Arnhem Land, a mining town in one of the most beautiful and remote parts of Australia's Northern Territory.
Mission Aviation Fellowship is a world wide Christian charity that we will be working with in this area, serving Aboriginal people by providing a vital link between Nhulunbuy facilities and their Homeland outstations. This means that the indigenous people of Arnhem Land are able to remain out in the "bush" and live in their small family clans which is so important to them and part of their culture.

The process of gaining a work permit is taking it's time but it's going to be well worth it. As a family it is such an honour for us to be part of this programme within MAF International.
Our Internet time is about to expire so please view our blog again soon as we will update regularly!
God bless from us all.
