WHAT LIES AHEAD?


Meanwhile, the War goes on between Ukraine and Russia, and the uncertainty of what lies ahead plagues us.  


We PRAY for our Lord to lead us and guide us each step of the way.


Yet, we move forward to help as we can.  Soon, Cindy and I will be heading back to Ukraine with at least 11 Air Mobile Rescuers!  PRAISE GOD!!




In the meantime, between "Missions", having a lovely time here at the "Retreat Cabin".  


We've already begun putting in our Summer Garden, and again, it so surreal being here at this spectacular place of refuge and strengthening.  


GOD IS GOOD!!


THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer, love and support!!

OOOPS!!


Well, I got up at my usual time, around 6:00 a.m., fixed that first cup of "Joe" and sat down at my laptop and launched another "Rambling Blog".


Scanned the news and was just beginning to type when I got called away for a quick, little project.  


Then...came another one and another one and then next thing I knew, it was 2:30 p.m. when Yahn called and asked in a rather anxious voice..."Are you alright?"


"Sure, I'm fine...what up?" I asked.  "Where's your Blog??" he asked.


Then, it hit me like a sack of cement.  After doing thing, after thing after thing...I never got back to the 'blog'.



Well, here it is..."better late than never" so they say.


At any rate, we've had a very productive day knocking out thing after thing in preparation  for our "Next Mission to Ukraine".


Sorry about being late.  You know, I've been rambling down this road of life and sharing the journey with you for over 12 years...and not missed a day.  


Although, every now and then, I get a little forgetful and post later than usual.


Over the years, our Lord has done so many miracles and I'm THANKFUL to be able to share them with you.


So, as I say every single day, and mean with all of my heart...THANK YOU for your faithful prayer, love and support!!

GETTING CLOSER....


Critical components for the Air Mobile Rescuer water purifier are arriving and we are getting closer and closer to departing for our 3rd Mission to Ukraine.


I must admit that the time here at the "Retreat Cabin" is quite glorious and very restful.


I've quoted this saying many times here and it bears repeating this morning..."GOD KNOWS HOW TO DEPLOY HIS TROOPS"  


In this case, He knows how to pull his troop (me) back for a much needed RETREAT.  THANK YOU JESUS!



In our Mother's Day Celebration at our home church here in TN, Little Mulberry Baptist Church, here's a clip of our singing "When the Roll is Called Up Yonder".  Love our little church.


Well, it's time to get on with this beautiful day...getting ready for Ukraine.


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love ands support!!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

We fell in love on the "Mission Field" many years ago.

I love you Cindy!!!

VIEWING THE WAR FROM AFAR....



Being here, at the "Retreat Cabin" in the peaceful & beautiful mountains of East TN, (with a happy donkey) the "War" between Ukraine & Russia is presented differently in the media.


Oh, we see little bits & pieces of what is happening in Ukraine, but the story is slowly diminishing and will soon be forgotten.  


But...the War does go on and the people of Ukraine are fighting an INCREDIBLE BATTLE with a CLEAR DETERMINATION TO WIN!!


We are making strides toward getting our next 10+ Air Mobile Rescuer water purifiers ready to head back to Ukraine and help bring CLEAN WATER to those who are cut-off from CLEAN WATER!


Never, in my life, have I seen such COURAGE & WILL TO WIN this terrible War between Ukraine & Russia.


We PRAY for all of the INNOCENT VICTIMS who are in the path of this terrible WAR!   


WE PRAY for "GOD'S WILL TO BE DONE...HERE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN!" These precious Words given to us by our Lord Jesus!


So, on this lovely Saturday morning, here at the "Retreat Cabin", we go forth preparing for our Next Mission!


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

SIMPLY SWEET REST...


In between chores around the "Retreat Cabin", there are times of sweet rest.


Our plans are being laid to return to Ukraine with at least 10 Air Mobile Rescuers.  


We're nearing completion of  building the units (we have been waiting for certain components to arrive) and soon enough, Cindy and I will be leaving for the 3rd Mission there.


Just got word moments ago, that my laptop upgrade is complete.  Time to go pick it up.

So, in between chores and stuff, I rest and restore my strength for what lies ahead.

Received an encouraging call from Ukraine yesterday from Jay on the latest "Rescuer" deployments.  


9 of the 11 units that we delivered on our 2nd Mission are all in operation and the other 2 units will be delivered soon.  PRAISE GOD!


We will likely be returning to Ukraine next week.  Nearly all of the necessary components have been delivered and soon, we'll have 10-12 "Rescuers" ready to GO!!


Today, I'll be upgrading and strengthening my laptop.  Found a true local computer genius who will be helping me.  THANK GOD for those computer geniuses!!


Time to go...get upgraded.  As always, THANK YOU for your precioius prayer, love and support!!

A SWEET LITTLE "GET AWAY"....


Yesterday, Cindy and I picked up Ariana from school and drove straight to Bristol TN, an hour away.


Had a lovely dinner and then went to the Barter Theatre (Built in 1830) in Abingdon, VA.


An absolutely beautiful theatre restored to past glory and so rich in history.



We enjoyed the Kentucky Spring Play, a wonderful story of love and grace.


The cast of this Play did an incredible job.  So much talent.


While driving through the beautiful Smokey / Blue Ridge mountains, I saw such lovely pictures of true "Americana".


There was a Baseball game going on and folks taking a nice stroll through a Park and clean streets and just such peaceful & beautiful images.


My mind went back to Russian Troops storming the steel mill in Ukraine with bullets flying and bombs falling and my heart broke again.


Here's more - RUSSIAN TROOPS STORM STEEL MILL IN MARIUPOL


While watching the Play, at times I would just cry....We'll be back there (Ukraine) soon enough.


For now, we'll just enjoy the moment and build up our strength and PRAY!


Well, back to reality.  We're up early (5:00AM) and getting ready to head back to Sneedville TN (another picture of Americana) to get Ariana back in time for the 8:00 AM Bell for the start of the school day.


Life goes on and I ask our Lord to guide us each step of the way.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE "GHOST OF KYIV"? & U.S. MARINE VET DIES IN UKRAINE


This mysterious pilot who reportedly shot down 40 Russian aircraft, has died in battle for his country.


This amazing story, though still draped in secrecy, has brought tears to my eyes.  


We may never know the truth but...the COURAGE of the Ukranian people in the face of overwhelming odds, is exemplified by this mysterious, legendary pilot.

We PRAY for his young wife and family who are grieving this terrible loss.

A GENTLE RAIN....





Awoke to a lovely, gentle rain falling on our tin roof.  Sure love the "Retreat Cabin".


It's like being in 2 worlds.  Having just left the WAR between Russia and Ukraine and returning to the sweet, gentle "Retreat Cabin"....what a contrast.


We're making good progress on the next 10 Air Mobile Rescuer water purifiers.  We're awaiting several critical components to arrive and then....we'll be heading back to the War Zone in Ukraine.


The plan is for Cindy to join us on this next mission.  Cindy's life-long experience as a Psychiatric Nurse (RN), specialing in adolescent patients will be of great benefit to this next mission.


In the meantime, been catching up on chores around the cabin and ministry paperwork while awaiting our "marching orders".

It's so good to be home....even for a little while.  So good seeing Cindy and Ari!


Well, you may have heard, as soon as I rest up a bit and get 10 more Air Mobile Rescuers READY... Cindy and I will head back to Ukrain!


I'm so glad that Cindy will be joining me!  She is an amazing missionary...that's one of the many reasons I married her!!


But for now, it's a matter of catching up and resting before we hit the road again for Miami and then the direct flight back to Poland / Ukrain.


Yesterday, got a call from Fox 35 in Orlando and they wanted an update on our "Mission".

WORKING MY WAY HOME.....


Driving from Miami to Tennessee takes over 15 hours.  Well, I got within 4 hours of our dear little "Retreat Cabin", and just couldn't make the remaining miles.  I was TIRED & DRIFTING badly.


After checking hotel after hotel, I finally found a single room at a Holiday Inn somewhere in South Carolina.  PRAISE GOD for a comfortable bed.


Earlier, while driving, WKMG Channel 6 in Orlando called and wanted an update on our latest mission.  


Here it is:  WKMG (CBS) CHANNEL 6 ORLANDO INTERVIEWS JOE HURSTON

LAST LEG HOME.....


Boarded a beautiful LOT Airline Boeing 787 Dream Liner in Warsaw headed to Miami.


Had a lovely, but sad 10 hour flight to Miami.  Several times, on the flight I would just start crying, hoping no one would see me.  


Can't get over the faces of the fleeing Ukranians who are being forced out of their home and life by Russia and specifically Putin.  It is hard to grasp this cruelty...it is absolutely evil.



After landing in Miami, right on schedule, I found the trusy Ford Escape and began the last leg home.


Was really tired when I rolled into Titusville, where I slept last night.


Going to have breakfast with our son, Peter this morning.


Folks, there is so much that I want to say right now, but....first, I'm heading to the "Retreat Cabin" and looking so forward to seeing my Cindy and Ariana.



On these first 2  missions to Ukraine, we entered 8 times and brought in 19 Air Mobile Rescuers right to front lines of battle.



Each one of these Passport stamps represents a story of God's Amazing Grace & Protection.


I'll tell more in the days ahead.


We are blessed to have been able to do these 2 Missions with your faithful prayer, love and support.


Yes, we plan to return with more life-saving Rescuers in the near future....after I've had some good rest and rcovery.


So, after breakfast, I have a 11-12 hour drive to Tennessee.  Can hardly wait to get home!!


THANK YOU again, for your faithful prayer, love and support!!!!

ON THE WAY HOME....


All 11 of the Air Mobile Rescuers have been deployed into strategic locations.  It's time to head home and put together our "Next Mission".


Yesterday, I had the privilege to meet Captain David Kaiser, a highly decorated Viet Nam Veteran and long time Warsaw resident.


David knows what's going on with this insane War and had some excellent insights.  


The time we spent together has give me  good information for our "Next Mission" here.


I'm ever reminded of the wise and sage words from my first Pastor, Roy Stockstill.  Many years ago, I was facing some large challenges and needed help.  


Brother Roy just looked at me and smiled and said...."Remember, son, God knows how to deploy His troops".  After spending time with David, I remembered those words.


BTW, David loved our "Rescuer" and will be a big help when we return to Ukraine.


In just a few hours, I'll be boarding a Direct flight from Warsaw to Miami.  Then, will have a 15 hour drive up to our sweet "Retreat Cabin" and my Cindy and Ari.


It's time to go home and rest.


Well, time to pack up and go catch that 11 hour flight to Miami.


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

REMEMBER....



Aaron and I drove from the Border of Ukraine to Krakow for the sole purpose of going to Auschwitz / Birkenau to see and experience pure "evil".


Yesterday, we walked through those buildings.  I hardly know what to say...



May we ever "REMEMBER" the horror and pure insane evil that took place in those buildings.


I find it ironic, that Vladamir Putin is calling Ukraine "Nazi" when...it appears that he is the Nazi.  


The cruel and senseless bombing and killing and torturing of innocent citizens is beyond comprehension.


Well, I am left with the "mission" to bring help and healing and life and clean water to those who are suffering....at the hands of Russia.


This is, I believe the meaning of the Words of Jesus, when He said.....I WAS THIRSTY, I WAS HUNGRY, I WAS SICK, I WAS IN PRISON...."WHEN YOU'VE DONE IT UNTO THE LEAST OF THESE, MY BRETHERN, YOU'VE DONE IT UNTO ME". (Matthew 25:35-45)



Just to demonstrate just what this War is doing to 6 MILLION .... THIRSTY ONES!


Well Folks, it's getting time to wrap up this "Mission to Ukraine".  We've successfully delivered a total of 19 Air Mobile Rescuers to strategic locations bringing CLEAN WATER where folks are "cut-off".


Tomorrow, I'll fly back to the U.S. to work on bringing in more Air Mobile Rescuers.  This War is far from over and there are dark days head.


Intense bombing is taking place as I write this blog.  Karkhiv, a town where we have placed "Rescuers", is under bombing right now.  


We're THANKFUL to our brave team that literally risked their lives to get those units into place in Karkhiv.



Here's more of what is happening in Karkhiv - MAYOR OF UKRAINE'S CITY OF KARKHIV IS UNDER INTENSE BOMBARDMENT


As I prepare to fly back the U.S., my mind and heart are with the people of Ukraine.  We PRAY FOR MIRACLES to PROTECT all in the path of this cruel war!

THERE &.....ALMOST BACK AGAIN


I am so happy to say that Dr. Aaron & Jay made it back SAFELY from the "Front Lines" of War in Ukraine.  


Their journey there was filled with God's Amazing Grace & Protection in the midst of a lot of DANGER in this brutal War.


PRAISE GOD!!!


They delivered the 4 Air Mobile Rescuers into strategic locations that are "cut-off" from food and water.


At this time, I can't post any pictures of their deployments for Security Reasons.


We're still not out of the woods, so I can't give any more details but, suffice it to say....MISSION ACCOMPLISHED of delivering 4 Rescuers into strategic locations!


Meanwhile, on the Poland side of the of the Poland / Ukraine Border, I met with Ken Brewester who has funded 5 more Air Mobile Rescuers.


Ken & his Team will be deploying these Air Mobile Rescuers into strategic locations where THOUSANDS are cut-off from food and water.


BTW, Ken is a Business Man from East Tennessee.  So glad that our Lord caused our paths to cross in this brutal War.  Ken is a good man and I look forward to working with him!!


After Aaron crossed from Ukraine into Poland last night, we hit the road for Krakow, Poland.

Today, we will be visiting the Auschwitz Concentration Camp...a grim reminder of...

"MAN'S INHUMANITY & BRUTALITY & CRUELTY TO MAN"!

Oh, Folks, we need GOD'S AMAZING GRACE in our lives.



I am also reminded that Jesus has told us that HE IS COMING BACK AGAIN!!  COME QUICKLY LORD JESUS!!  


May we ever serve Him and reach out those in need to bring His Love in the midst of War.

I've added to my travel package an EMF Tester (reads radiation).  It's a good thing to VERIFY just how much Radiation is being released.


There are SERIOUS THREATS of Russia using nuclear weapons in this latest offensive. 


I even have a gas mask in the event of a chemical attack.


Russia has repeatedly bombed chemical depots in apparant attempts to release deadly chemicals into the atmosphere.  



We don't know what Russia might do, but it's best to be as prepared as we can be.


Russia has launched it's latest OFFENSIVE in East Ukraine and has even bombed locations in the west.

Again, THESE ARE SERIOUS THREATS & WE PRAY for sanity to prevail.


We lean heavily upon our Lord Jesus for GRACE & GUIDANCE.


As always, THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer, love and support!!

HE IS ALIVE!!


Here in Poland / Ukraine on this Resurrection morning, I PRAISE GOD for His great love to us.  


THANK YOU JESUS!!


Though the War rages on between Ukraine & Russia, still, JESUS IS LORD!


We PRAY for those innocent victims in the path of this terrible war.


While our team is going into "hard to reach areas" of Ukraine, we PRAY for their safety. I cannot disclose their location for Security Reasons.  


Here in Poland, I've been on the phone with our parts suppliers ordering more components to make more Air Mobile Rescuers.


We're getting report after report of thousands who are cut-off with little or no clean drinking water.


It's time to get to work on this Resurrection morning.  As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

A RAINY DAY IN POLAND & UKRAINE & A WALK DOWN "LOVE ROW"


On this Saturday, between Good Friday and Easter, it's a rainy cold day Poland / Ukraine.



Thousands are standing in long lines to flee Ukraine and come into Poland.


Many, not knowing where they are going or what they will do.  They simply want to get out of the way of in-coming missiles and the possibility of starvation or dying from thirst.  


I'm amazed at how well the Poles are handling this 4+ million influx of Refugees.


Folks, there is a lot of LOVE & COMPASSION being shown these desparate refugees.


I took a walk down "Love Row" recently and just described what I saw in an unedited fashion.  Take a walk with me....

A WALK DOWN "LOVE ROW"


I heard from Dr. Webb and Jay this morning and they're safe where they are.  They managed to find another vehicle as well as an armed escort.


Today, they'll be placing Air Mobile Rescuers in strategic locations for if or when the bombs begin to fall.


PLEASE PRAY for them as they continue on this dangerous, but extremely needful deployment.


And, as I say every single day and truly mean with all of my heart, THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer, love and support!!!

4-15-22 Friday 7:37 AM (PolandTime) - "Air Mobile On the Move" to UKRAINE!  Report submitted by Air Mobile Joe


MORE RESCUERS DEPLOYED....IN HARD TO REACH PLACES!


Yesterday began with a run to another Border Crossing.  


This time, Jay and Dr. Webb would be heading into strategic locations to deliver 4 Air Mobile Rescuers.


Along the way, their vehicle blew a head gasket.  Fortunately, they have been able to secure another vehicle and they're back on the road today.  THANK GOD!!



As Aaron and Jay were dealing with the break-down, I crossed  by foot into Ukraine and headed for Lviv to deploy another unit.



Along the road to Lviv, were numerous armed check points.


My driver, Paul, told me to be "discreet" with the phone / camera, as we might be mistaken as Russian spies.



All along the road to Lviv, we saw armed "Sand Piles" showing the readiness to defend Ukranian land.


Upon arrival into Lviv, I met a retired Special Ops Army Ranger.


He is helping teams get into the most isolated, desperate areas in Ukraine.  


When I demonstrated the Air Mobile Rescuer, he saw the extreme benefit of being able to make CLEAN WATER in "CUT-OFF" areas.


It was a joy to present he and his team with a Rescuer.




After returning to the Poland side of the Border Crossing, I saw the multi-mile line of trucks in line to cross into Ukraine.


Most of the trucks would be heading to Kiev, as that great city is coming back to life after the valiant battle with the Russians and the Ukranian Army drove Russia out.


The battle is far from over and we must continue to PRAY and do all we can to help these brave people.


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!!

TANKS...ON THE MOVE



Yesterday, while coming from the Poland / Ukraine Border, we saw this line of tanks "on the move".


There is certainly tension in the area as we prepare for Putin's next move.



We're very THANKFUL for Poland's stand with their neighbor, Ukraine.


We have witnessed, first hand, such love and care.  THANK YOU POLAND!!


Today, we're sending out "scouts" to find the areas that will be hard hit by Putin's next offensive.  Our goal is to position Air Mobile Rescuers that will provide CLEAN WATER after bombing attacks.


We pray for Guidance and direction for these teams.  


As always, THANK YOU, for your precious and vital prayer, love and support!!!

A NEW "WATER MULE".....


I had the privilege to meet Ken Brewer from Tennessee yesterday.  Ken has been in Ukraine from the earliest stage of the War.


Recently, he heard about Air Mobile and remarkable "Rescuer" water purifier and we met in the Operation Blessing tent near the Poland / Ukraine border.  


Ken will adding the "Rescuer" to his outreach to help the Ukranian people during this brutal war.  Welcome aboard, Ken!!


Today, we'll be back on the Ukraine side to assist a field hospital that needs clean water.  


We're also following up on other "Rescuer" deployments from our last mission.


Folks, this War with Russia is far from over.  We feel it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to place Air Mobile Rescuers in locations where the next Russian Offensive will take place.


Here's more - PUTIN SAYS PEACE TALKS HIT DEAD END...VOWS TO CONTINUE THE FIGHT  


Literally millions of Ukranians are VULNERABLE and when the attacks come, CLEAN WATER will be essential.


PLEASE CONTINUE to PRAY that we are led by the Holy Spirit regarding the strategic deployments of the Rescuers.


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

4-12-22 Tuesday 7:24 AM (PolandTime) - "Air Mobile On the Move" to UKRAINE!  Report submitted by Air Mobile Joe 


BACK INTO UKRAINE....

Yesterday, Aaron and I arrived at the Border Crossing into Ukraine from Poland.


We had arranged to meet with Jay (who has deployed Rescuers deep into the Eastern zone of Ukraine).  Jay's insight and knowledge is extremely valuable.


We also met with Mark of Operation Blessing (OB) and shared our information.  

Things are "ever-changing", but current info is very important.


We needed to cross over into Ukraine and gather more information before launching our next mission.



We're very THANKFUL for the open door we have and the means to cross into and out of Ukraine from Poland.



On the other side (Ukraine) we met with Wortek of CPH, an NGO doing great work.


Wortek is extremely knowledgeable of the HUMANITARIAN CRISIS of this terrible WAR.



Comparing Wortek's knowledge along with Jay's recent journey into the Eastern Ukraine gives a better picture of what is happening. 


And also, how we can effectively, and as safely as possible get our Air Mobile Rescuers into the most effective position to save the lives of those who are "cut-off" from food and clean water.


Today, we'll be in more intelligence meetings with other NGO leaders to plan the best way to get CLEAN WATER to thirsty people trapped by this terrible War!


As always, THANK YOU for your precious and invaluable prayer, love and support!!

POSITIONING...


Yesterday, Aaron and I rented a car in Central Poland, loaded it up with our 11 water purifiers and headed to the Border 4 hours away.


Last night, we met with Jamie and Jay who had deployed 3 Air Mobile rescuers in regions of Ukraine facing fierce Russian attacks.


They told us stories of our Lord opening up doors and receiving travel authorizations to move about the country (very important).


To demonstrate the Air Mobile Rescuer, they took water from a local polluted river and then....they drank the water after being purified.  All were convinced of the Rescuers ability to purify water.


Today, we'll be meeting with several Relief Organizations near the Poland / Ukraine Border and discussing the best places to POSITION the Air Mobile Rescuers.


We're very encouraged by the reports we're getting and confident that our Lord will lead us each step of the way.


So, as we move into position for effective deployments, I must tell you how blessed I am to be here!  PRAISE GOD for his GOODNESS & GUIDANCE!


As I say every day and truly mean with all of my heart, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!!

PALM SUNDAY IN POLAND


Awoke this morning, in a bit of a "fog" with the 6 hour time difference.  


When the first cup of coffee was made & sipped , I realized it was Palm Sunday.


Have been so busy putting this "Rapid Turn-Around" mission together, didn't realize I'd be in Poland on Palm Sunday. 



On this day, we celebrate the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.


We know, according to the Word of God, this week between Palm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday, our Lord Jesus will suffer and die for our sins.  He died to set us free.  THANK YOU JESUS!!

BTW, Poland is 70%  Catholic, so this is a serious time of spiritual reflection here. 

So, as we go about accomplishing this "Mission" of bringing CLEAN WATER  In His Name, to the Thirsty, may we remember the events that led to the Crucifixtion and then to the Resurrection.


Time to get packed up and head through Poland to the Border Crossing town where the beginning of our outreach will be staged.


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

AIR MOBILE MIAMI TO POLAND....


After packing and strapping and labeling the 11 Air Mobile Rescuers at the Miami International Airport, we were ready to go.



As we were packing, a CBS Newsman (Alex) stopped by and asked what we were doing and what was all of this about.



We gladly told our Story of bringing in CLEAN WATER to Ukraine.  He was immediately very interested and soon was interviewing Dr. Webb.



Then, he turned the camera on me and I love to tell the story....of bringing CLEAN WATER to the thirsty!



LOT AIRLINES did a superb job of processing our 6 tubs and....DONATED  the OVER WEIGHT / EXCESS BAGGAGE FEES.


THANK YOU LOT AIRLINES!!



I said..."bye bye" as they rolled down the conveyor....headed to Ukraine!  



Well, once all 11 units were on their way to Poland, Aaron and I could relax for a few minutes before boarding the LOT Airlines 787 Dream Liner for a lovely flight to Poland.



BTW, remember that lost bag on our last mission to Poland / Ukraine?  Well, PRAISE GOD, we found it, packed it in our luggage and it is now...in Poland.


We had an absolutely lovely flight to Poland.  We're in a good comfortable room ready to head out tomorrow for our first Border Crossing.

Aaron has been all over the world deploying Rescuers with me. He's a great "Water Mule" and a great Doctor.  So glad he can join the "Mission".

Good job, Yahn, building those units so FAST!

A lot of driving and long days before...we arrive in Poland / Ukraine.  Please PRAY for my strength and health to hold up.  These are tough days filled with a lot of danger "on the other side".

A CALL AT 4:55 AM


Was awakened by a call early this morning from a water expert in Poland.  We'd met on my last mission to Poland / Ukraine.


He saw the extreme value in the Air Mobile Rescuer and wanted some IMMEDIATELY.  


Folks, I can't give details (for Security), except to say that there are extreme urgent needs for clean water in many locations.  People are dying from the lack of clean water!  


Well, I'd already laid out a plan to return to Poland / Ukraine next week.  


Long story short, I've been re-arranging everything, units being built, ground transportation / sleep accomodations, etc. etc. and now...everything has been fast forwarded to leaving in the next 48 hours.


I'm also pleased that we have several other teams who are pressing EAST-WARD into some of the heavy hot spots.  They are bringing HOPE & CLEAN WATER!!


That's why the Blog is late, certainly later than usual.


Will be loading up the little Ford Escape with 10 Air Mobile Rescuers tomorrow and then headed all the way down to Miami (1,000+ miles from TN) to catch a direct flight to Poland.

A QUIET SUNDAY.....


Still dealing with a bit of "Jet Lag".  The "Ukraine Mission" pushed up the clock by 6 hours.  


My biological clock is lagging a few hours behind...so I get up extra early.  In time, it will wear off.


Looking forward to Church this morning.  So glad to be home....for now.


Yes, looks like another "Mission" to Ukraine is in the works.... sooner than later.


Getting multiple requests for Air Mobile Rescuers to be deployed in the Eastern Region of Ukraine (very dangerous)....as I type this blog.  


Literally, hundreds of thousands are cut-off from food, water, medical care & medicine.  


These brutal, barberic, medeival war practices are being played out by Putin.  


I remember the Words of our Lord Jesus...."I WAS HUNGRY, THIRSTY, SICK"....When you've done it unto the least of these, you've done it unto Me.


We must do all we can to help those who are trapped in Ukraine.  May our Lord Jesus lead us each step of the way.


It's time for that 2nd cup of coffee in the peace and tranquility of our "Retreat Cabin".  I'm THANKFUL for this time of rest.

What a joy to pull up to our sweet "Retreat Cabin" in the mountains of East TN and be with my sweet Cindy and Ariana.


Folks, it's been a long journey filled with great sadness, tragedy, danger and at the same time, JOY at being able to bring CLEAN WATER and to share the LOVE OF JESUS with those in such great need and danger.



I  love this short clip of the Pianist sharing a bit of  joy in the midst of the suffering.


Just read on down to see a day by day account of this last mission to Ukraine.


You may have seen this Newscast on our Mission to Ukraine, but if not, here it is again AIR MOBILE TO UKRAINE  


My heart is broken by the tragic cruelty of Russia attacking Ukraine! Yet, at the same time, I am amazed at the COURAGE and STRENGTH of the Ukranian people.


Having made this journey to Poland / Ukraine and seeing our Lord pave the way to get in and out Ukraine effectiviely....I must return with more water purifiers.


We are building another 10 units now and hope to return soon.  The need is so great....we must go!

DRIFTING....


Yesterday, after checking on  that lost bag (yes, it's still lost!) with American Airlines, I hit the road for the 12 hour drive to Tennessee.


Driving up I-95 and seeing the images in my mind from having been in the "War Zone"....I began to drift off in just pure emotional and physical exhaustion.


Pulled off somewhere in Georgia and found the last room at a Holiday Inn Express.  


It's good to be in the U.S. and even though gas prices have soared, America is still a great place to be.  It's good to be heading home.


Slept well and having had my second cup of coffee, it's time to hit the road for the "Retreat Cabin".


As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!
