Back to Work

Well, after having 8 days off work with pretty severe pain from the kidney stones and surgery, I am back to work. I have been back for several days now. Work has been busy with all the hurricanes and tropical storms that have hit Haiti and other Caribbean Islands. One of our airplanes spend 2 1/2 weeks in the Turks and Caicos Islands which is just north of Haiti. They transported 81,000 lbs of relief supplies. The islands were devastated by hurricane Ike. In one week we made 7 other flights to Haiti with the other three airplanes. Donations from all over have been coming in to the hangar. Clothes, food, money for fuel and medical supplies. Walmart donated several pallets of food and approximately 15 tons of bottled water. Many churches have been getting involved. Medical Assistance Program (MAP) has donated over a half million dollars in medical supplies (www.map.org). Our problem now is keeping up with the maintenance so we can get all these supplies to relief workers and missionaries. Please pray for the safety of the flights and crew and especially those affected by these storms.
