An Unexpected Move

Although Frank has mostly been instructing some of our coworkers as they transition from an airplane to a helicopter, he’s also been in the student’s seat for an advanced gross weight/mountain flying course. One scenario they train for is flying down in a canyon with clouds covering the ridgetops, and then coming up to a […]

What is the month of June looking like for you? We’ll be spending the whole month in Peru, a country that has a special place in our hearts. Back when Joyce was in first grade, she watched a film at school about the country of Peru. (Yes, it was a reel-to-reel film back then). It […]

But for this big treasure to be shared with the many on our worldwide literacy team who don’t speak English, it has been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, French, etc. […]

…But the Workers are Few

January 4, 2019

A Waiting Tribe “It’s just sad; heartbreaking. They live out in the middle of nowhere, and they’ll probably never get the Gospel.” Brent, one of our missionary pilots in Papua New Guinea, was telling me about his first few years on the field. One of his initial jobs was to be the Flight Coordinator. Anyone in […]

Multiplying Missionaries

August 30, 2018

We made it! For the last 3 months, Frank has been instructing a fellow missionary pilot, Nathan, in the helicopter. With the increasing need our church planters are having for helicopter pilots, Nathan (just like Frank) was asked to add on helicopter training before moving overseas. After he agreed, Frank was asked to train him. […]
