Inspiring Story
The most compassionate time of the year

​
Nothing will stop Missionary Flights International from bringing Christmas magic to children in Haiti. Despite recent violence in the country, pilot Joe Karabensh and a small group of volunteers from Florida are getting ready to hand-deliver toys to local kiddos. “Many people on the brink of starvation ... children that need some joy at this time of the year,” Karabensh said, adding: “I definitely think it’s worth the risk.”

I am one happy Dad!! Ivan called us this morning. I am very disappointed that I was out running at that time, but he told his Mom, to tell me that he is doing his best and that he misses running with me. He has a cold from the change of weather, and it also gave him a nose bleed. He got 2 days light duty. He gave us his "ship" and "division" that he is assigned to. He said that he will be able to call again in 2 weeks. My goodness! It feels so good to hear from him.

Well, Ivan made it safely to Hawaii. He is now flying to Denver, and then on to Chicago. When he gets to boot camp, he will not get much sleep the first night, maybe 1-2 hours, so I feel for him after having almost 18 hours of flight time, and a few layovers. Please keep praying for him. Thank you all so much.
