Hurricane Irma

Hi All:
Just a quick request for prayer for God’s wisdom as to how, if at all, to proceed with the possibility of Hurricane Irma gearing up to cause havoc also. The poor people of Texas et al are still recovering from the aftermath of Harvey and Irma peeks around the corner with the possibility of even more force and destruction. American Airlines states that they suggest alternative paths if that is possible as both Haiti and Florida are threatened by the upcoming storm. However, they do underline that we are responsible to be there unless they cancel the flights. Yikes.

Since we are 9 on this team and that includes Ed Bos with a bunch of lab equipment to replace our “outdated” lab tools, it is harder to flip around and try to find new flights, plus there is so much up in the air. So, we are asking that you join us in prayer for God’s wisdom and direction for us all, so that we are neither foolish and take unneeded risks or waste a good opportunity to serve Him there in Haiti next week. As I have to fly straight through with my TPN (so that it doesn’t warm up and become worthless) this complicates the decision somewhat as getting stuck somewhere means that the expensive “lunch” that keeps me going and is such a lifesaver will be wasted.

As always, we trust that our Lord who knows the end from the beginning has a perfect plan for the situation, just pray that we, his imperfect servants, will ascertain His will and follow it for His glory.

Will keep you apprised of changes as they develop.

In His Service,

Aaron, Bill, Caleb, Duane, Ed, Jake, Joshua, Mike and Nick
