Our family is so honored to be chosen for this task. This helicopter training is not something we pursued at all and there have been many times that Zach and I have looked at each other and said, "how did this happen?" This wasn't in our original plan but it must be in God's because he has swung the door wide open on this one and made it effortless for us to walk through.
Having a helicopter, complete with pilot, will be such a blessing to the tribal evangelism effort.
There are locations in the Philippines that are extremely difficult to reach, and having a helicopter available will save enormous amounts of time and make it possible for missionaries to live in these remote locations, with their families, and still have a link to the outside world.
We are so excited to be a part of this new plan for the Philippines. Zach is doing really well with the training and enjoying every moment. He took his solo flight a few weeks ago and has completed all his solo night flight hours. His check ride is scheduled for April 14th.
We are all so proud of him!
