What A Fall

What A Fall

No, none of us suffered from a fall, but we can’t believe how fast the last half of 2021 was.  Here is a brief recap: Paul has been busy in the hangar despite the ever changing restrictions and lack of trained pilots resulting in a significant decrease in flight hours. Maintenance used time to get […]

Quick Prayer Request

Much has happened in the past week and we felt the need to send out a brief update to dispel rumors and off load our regular future newsletter.  Regions of Papua New Guinea (PNG) have been hit again with a wave of COVID cases and this time it has affected us here in the highlands. […]

A Busy Summer!

By the time this hits your inboxes we will be halfway through our first (of 4) terms of school.  (Our mission’s school starts in early August).  Paul has been busy in the hangar helping keep our 3 Kodiak airplanes and one Bell Long Ranger helicopter running.  He also has been able to help a fellow […]

Are We Royalty or Prisoners?

Are We Royalty or Prisoners?

We landed in Singapore and worked our way clumsily up the jetway.  Our almost empty Airbus 350 was a welcome break from our previous domestic flights, but we were fighting jetlag and needed showers and sleep.  Airport employees, in full PPE, welcomed us by name and provided special bracelets identifying us as “transitioning” passengers.  We […]

We’re Heading Back to PNG

This has been a long unpredictable year of change, but we finally received word late Monday night that our Papua New Guinea entry request was approved. YEAH!

Praises & Prayer Requests

Greetings (again) from southeastern Arizona.  We can hardly believe that we have almost been here at the Ethnos360 Aviation home office/training center for 2 months.  But things are moving forward and we wanted to keep you informed and ask for your prayers for the next several weeks. Praises: Paul was able to finish his first […]

It Takes A Team

It Takes A Team

Have you ever thought about how important teamwork is?  I Corinthians 12 tells us how important the Body of Believers is.  How about in terms of missionary work?  We hope you see yourself as part of the team.  Those who pray, give and encourage are a vital part of seeing Christ preached to the unreached.  […]

Road Trip – Check

Road Trip – Check

Praise the Lord we had a great trouble-free road trip. We were able to spend almost two weeks with Paul’s parents in South-Eastern Kansas and get some much-needed grandparent time in. We enjoyed getting some “honey do” items done for them and lots of visiting. Speaking of visiting, we were able to see two of […]
