Back to work...

I welcomed a three week break from flying, but during that time I missed out on some beautiful flying weather…no rain and good visibility.  Now the harmattan dust is here with poor visibility.  Praise the Lord for his safety during the unpredictable weather of rainy season, but now we pray for safety during the challenges of dry season dust, smoke, and haze.  We were able to catch up on some ministry in Ndop and spend a little more time together as a family the last few weeks as well. 

We watched with interest on TV the visit of the President of Cameroon to our regional capital of Bamenda the last few days.  His visit to this region was very important to the country, and we praise the Lord for a safe and successful trip for him.  The skies were busier with military and transport planes, which was one reason why I was grounded from flying for at least the last week. 

Today on my first dry season mission, I was able to finally fly in to Akwaya to bring out Pastor Felix.  He has been waiting for me for a week due to illness.  Praise the Lord he is doing better and is looking forward to some time out of Akwaya.  He mentioned the Lord’s hand in the village of Matene, which is one of the hardest places for him to reach on foot.  Pray for Felix’s knee, which is really hindering him lately, and another reason why he needed to fly out.
