Vuelo porque Vivo!

A short trip

I zipped up to Kalimantan for the week (which is where I will be serving soon) in order to get together with all the missionaries in the region for conference and fellowship. It was humbling again to meet missionaries who have given much of their lives on the front lines for the sake of the gospel; to catch glimpses of the realities of tribal missions. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in my own little world and minor problems that I forget what is really going on. So it is good to be reminded from time to time.

The second goal of the trip was to figure out what I needed to know about the house I will be living in. My future coworkers will be going on home assignment shortly so I will be living in their house for the next year. Actually I will be taking over both the house and the job!

The third goal was to unpack my crate and get my toolbox set up in the hangar. Praise the Lord everything arrived, was all there and its all now set up and ready to use! The day I was unpacking the crate I also got to go on a medical flight… bonus! We picked up a stroke patient at a village location and flew them to a hospital in the area before coming back home.

So now I am back on Java again to finish my last unit of language study. Did I mention it was my last unit? Pray for me that I would finish out the language study strong… sometimes its easy to see the end in sight and quit before you get there.
