We have recently decided to operate under the name of NELEN YUBU PRODUCTIONS. The official name remains "Nelen Yubu Missiological Unit" for banking purposes etc.

Peter Malone wants us to do a reprint of his Mary in Films. The eventual price will be disclosed in due time. [Earlier note: We recently prepared a booklet for printing from Peter Malone's presentation of Mary in Films (website of MSC General House). The PDF files of the cover and text can be accessed by clicking on one of these two words: cover:   text   We are selling them for AUD$3, plus postage. (Note that the files are in booklet printing format.)]

• At the moment I am working on a much belated task: writing up my account of life in the ealy years of a homeland movement, i.e. Peppimenarti in the NT, halfway between Daly River and Wadeye (Port Keats). Also implementing a special genealogical program with the slides I took at Peppimenarti in 1976. The program was developed for Pitjantjatjara Council who have allowed the Northern Territory Library to use 40 copies of the program. The Library has allowed me to use one copy for the Peppimenarti project under the aegis of Wadeye Community Museum (Mark Crocombe).
