We have been keeping busy here in the desert and thought we would update you with all that’s been accomplished. 

Ryan completed his helicopter flight instructor training!

He is now able to teach others how to fly the helicopter. This will be a benefit in the future to be able to do currency checks for other pilots in the Philippines.

Sydney & Lydia have been having a blast growing up in the desert. Sydney is already exciting to me moving to the Philippines as we have started packing up boxes to ship.

(Note: Lydia will be traveling via airline and not shipped in a box.)

Ryan & Bruno (pilot headed to Brazil) were able to complete the Rolls Royce helicopter engine training course. This has equipped him to be able to maintain the helicopter we will be using in the Philippines.

We partnered with some dear friends of ours (the Leblanc’s) who are on home assignment from Papua New Guinea. We brought the helicopter to California and was able to give rides to a lot of their ministry partners. It was a phenomenal opportunity to give them a snapshot into our ministry as well as the Leblanc’s as this helicopter will be what brings them in and out of their ministry location.

Monthly Support Goal

We are 92% of our monthly support goal for being in the Philippines! We are so honored and humbled for the amazing team of ministry parters God has brought along side us!

We have 75% of our helicopter training paid for!!
We are so excited to have come this far and blown away by the generosity of people in giving towards this project.

How you can be praying:

Please pray for the covid situation and that the Philippines will re-open their borders. Our plan is to leave for the Philippines in August, a lot of our paperwork is complete, but Covid restrictions currently do not allow any new arrivals in country.

Us as parents as we teach and disciple Sydney & Lydia. 

Arkansas people! Stay tuned for more info on the helicopter coming to your area in early May!

We are here because of your generosity!
