Merry Christmas

December 2013

In the midst of all the gift buying, cookie baking, mince pie making, and decorating, we would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas! Thank you for your love and generosity to us over the past year. We sincerely appreciate your prayers and encouragement! 



 

What a Year!

2013 turned out much differently than we ever expected.

On Valentine's Day we adopted our son Isaiah...




March we accepted Helimission's invitation for Ben to serve as a pilot and mechanic in Papua, Indonesia...



April we enjoyed a South American cruise with Ben's family...



June and July we left our much loved jobs at the helicopter school...



July we spent a week helping Friend's of Refugees with at the annual Summer Spectacular Camp and Ben flew to Arizona for a check flight with the Chief Pilot at New Tribes...




September we started a semester at Elim Bible Institute in New York and enjoyed the changing seasons as well as our classes...



December we flew back to Titusville to say farewell. Ben preached his first sermon and we had a lot of fun at our goodbye party and church small group Christmas party...




2014 will bring many more changes for us as we move to Indonesia for language and culture school and then to our base assignment in Papua. We are learning to enjoy each day as it comes. Thank you for your encouragement, prayers, and support. We couldn't do this without you!

Merry Christmas,

Ben, Anisha and Isaiah
