A Friend Drops In...

Literally...he just dropped in from the sky---in a helicopter that is! Our friend, Gavin Jones, whom we first met in PNG during our training at an SIL (Wycliffe) school, is home on furlough with his family in America. During this time he became a helicopter pilot and has been flying for Wycliffe in America. As he needed to fly from Vermont over to Michigan, he had a couple days to spare before his next job and so he crossed the border in the sky and landed at the Hamilton Airport!

Jonathan thought the helicopter was really cool!

The smile says it all!

After a few days of good fellowship, he was off again!

Gavin, his wife Carrie and their son, Isaac, are planning to return to PNG at the end of October. We pray for the Lord's blessings over them as they make their final preparations to go, say their goodbyes and take up their work in Ukarumpa again. Gavin will be flying Bible translators and others to villages not accessible by car or plane. Carrie will continue to work at the medical clinic.
May the Lord bless and keep them!
