NTM Aviation Expo

New Tribes Mission had an aviation expo recently.  Our team as well as my parents had the privilege to see the new Kodiak plane that NTM purchased.  Although the team is not sure what tribe they will be living with there is the possibility that we will be riding in this plane!  The staff with NTM was more than helpful with answering questions as well as letting us and the kids get in the cockpit!  We had a blast! We are only 24 days from departure to PNG!

Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God.

Lorie and I are in the middle of a biography on William Carey written by S.
