SEARCHING FOR THE "ROAD" IN...
Yesterday, Sam and I drove to 2 critical locations (Camp K & Camp A) seeking the best places to deploy the Air Mobile Rescuers.
Here's our video while "On the Road" -
Sam and I PRAYED for our Lord to direct our steps! After arriving at Camp A (Adiyaman) we saw "World Central Kitchen".
There we met Beriven, the contact we were seeking (USAID)!
Beriven had the exact phone numbers we needed!
PRAISE GOD!
Here's how this incredible story unfolded.
Folks, getting to the Turkey - Syrian Border is a long and complicated road. We are finding our way there!
Today, we'll be reaching out to USAID to gain the critical information we need to proceed further.
PLEASE PRAY with us that we reach our destination!!
And...THANK YOUR precious prayer, love and support!!

BACK TO "ZERO"... STILL SHAKING & HAPPY BIRTHDAY CINDY!
Wish I could be there with you.
LOVE YOU SWEETHEART!
Doug has traveled around the world numerous times with Air Mobile. Doug is a great pilot, photo journalist & amazing Water Mule.
Operation Blessing is setting up another Base near another Ground Zero and we discussed the local water situation.
We also discussed the planning and strategy to place Air Mobile Rescuers where most needed.
Today, Sam and I will be traveling to Adi-Yaman & Kahramanmaras where we will be meeting with USAID & other Relief Organizations.
WATER BORNE DISEASE, such as Cholera & Typhoid is beginning to show it's ugly head. We are in a race against time!
Here's more - CLAIM OF "CHOLERA EPIDEMIC IN EARTHQUAKE "ZONE
Traveling into these zones is very dangerous, as nearly 5000 AFTER-SHOCKS have occurred and still SHAKING. This whole area is EXTREMELY VOLATILE!
Tragically, the DEATH TOLL has passed 50,000 and still climbing!
PLEASE PRAY that we are directed very precisely in placing all of these Air Mobile Rescuers!
THANK YOU, as always, for your precious prayer, love and support!!

RECHARGE....
After 9 straight days, running at nearly 100mph every day...it was time for a "Day of Rest".
While resting at our Base Camp in Adana (on the edge of the earthquake disaster zone), I did a quick Zoom interview with WBIR in Knoxville.
Here it is: WBIR INTERVIEWS JOE HURSTON
With our "batteries" recharged (both literally and figuratively), it's time to head back into another Ground Zero (there are many) and strategically place some Air Mobile Rescuers.

MORE SHAKING!!
Several hours ago, a 5.2 Earthquake shook southern Turkey near the Syrian Border.
This quake has been followed by several smaller quakes. There have been over 4300 After-Shocks since the 2-6-23 Quake!!
This situation is dramatically effecting the SAFETY DURING RECOVERY!
As we drove by building after building, we saw so many almost ready to collapse (killing more in the path). I can't begin to tell you just DANGEROUS this situation is!!
Yesterday, our Team delivered critical supplies along with small cooking stoves to 5 different locations in the hardest hit areas of this monstrous disaster.
Today, 2 of our Team Members (Dr, Aaron & Faruch) will be heading home. We PRAY they have a safe journey and we're so THANKFUL for their help!!
We'll be in meetings today with other Relief Organizations planning the best ways to deploy our Rescuers!!
As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

REACHING IN DEEP.....DEPLOYED
Based on some good info, our team headed back to Hatay.
Along the way, we stopped at several small stores that were still in operation and secured essentials as cooking oil, flour, bread, medicines, diapers, etc.
We worked our way up winding roads to a small community in desperate need of food and clean water, located very near the Syrian Border.
The folks were kind and sweet. Sam (who flew in from India) pulled a couple of used tennis balls (secured for Air Mobile by Gary & Kathy) and had the kids going. It was a surreal moment.
As we assessed the community we noted that they had no electricity and they explained to us it was very sporadic. As we were talking, suddenly, the electricity came on.
After gathering more info, we decided to donate a Rescuer to this community.
Dr. Aaron did the training on the Rescuer. PRAISE GOD for our amazing team!
The little community, known for it's lemons and oranges expressed deep, deep gratitude for the Rescuer. They now, can offer CLEAN WATER to their neighbors.
Folks, I could so feel the presence of Jesus in our midst and hearing Him say...
"I was thirsty and you gave me to drink....when you've done it unto the least of these you've done it unto Me"
The folks in the "Lemon Village" bid us a sweet farewell.
We were not through. Faruch, a long-time friend of Dr. Aaron was busy securing our next location.
He had arranged from another friend, Taylan, an electrical engineer who was managing a relief center nearby, to be trained on the Rescuer.
We showed up in the dark of night and went right into the training.
Then, came the "magic moment" where I took the first drink and that always leads the way for confidence in the amazing Rescuer.
PRAISE GOD FOR THIS PRIVILEGE!
Our team then loaded up into our Toyota Mini-van for the 3 hour drive back to our base camp. It was a very, very good day!!
Meanwhile, the death toll continues to rise passing 41,000! PLEASE PRAY for the all who have been so devastated by these terrible earthquakes!
Today, we're heading back out to "Ground Zero" to bring CLEAN WATER to the thirsty and desperate.
As always, THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer love and support!!

SEARCH...& RECOVERY
Our Team returned to Hatay yesterday. Our goal was to explore going to the Turkey / Syrian Border where the report that Cholera had broken out.
The SEARCH for living survivors officially ended yesterday. The heavy machinery has moved in and is clearing debris.
Many bodies are still in the rubble. It is a long and slow and painful process.
We got separated from one of our team members for a few minutes. We were THANKFUL to find him.
Hatay is a tragic disaster. Our hearts are broken as we drove through this extremely dangerous & volatile zone.
We departed Hatay for the Turkey / Syrian Border, knowing that we would return to Hatay many times in the days ahead.
The road was surprisingly good with limited destruction and we arrived at the Turkey / Syrian Border in just over an hour
The Border at this location is currently closed and we hope it opens soon.
In the meantime, we'll be seeking authorization to cross into Syria and bring CLEAN WATER into the cholera zone.
We are reaching out to other Relief organizations and will be pursuing key locations for the Air Mobile rescuer water purifiers.
PLEASE PRAY THAT WE ARE GUIDED IN THIS PURSUIT!
As I say every single day, and truly mean with all of my heart, THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer, love and direction.

GOING TO "GROUND ZERO"
As we departed Adana, where there was very little impact from the earthquake, we braced for what was to lie ahead.
As we drew closer and closer to Hatay, the devastation unfolded before us in staggering proportions.
As we entered into Hatay, pretty much every building had damage and most were completely destroyed.
Take a look at this gripping video - AIR MOBILE DRAWING INTO GROUND ZERO
Our destination was the Operation Blessing (OB) Camp located in Hatay.
Once arriving there, and it took a long time of driving through the staggering winding paths through rubble, we met the Gabby, the OB Camp Director.
We demonstrated the Air Mobile Rescuer and the whole team rejoiced.
They pulled water out of close-by stream and the Rescuer did it's wonderful thing....cleaning up that filthy water.
After I drink some, the whole team followed and had a good drink of some very dirty, now clean, water! PRAISE GOD!
We then loaded up and headed back to our base camp Adana. What a day!!
THANK YOU for your precious and vital prayer, love and support!!

ON THE GROUND IN ADANA, TURKEY
After a full day and night of flying, our team landed in Adana, the hardest hit area of Turkey.
Once on the ground, we secured our vehicle and awaited ALL of the Air Mobile Rescuers to come off the plane and into our hands.
When in the terminal we waited for our 9 tubs and 14 Rescuers to arrive. There was a somber atmosphere as the conveyer made the rounds.
While waiting for the Rescuers, I was glad to find my good friend, Diego, from Operation Blessing!
We've worked together in Ukraine and now, we'll see how we can help with CLEAN WATER!!
It was a tremendous relief to see those 9 tubs come through Customs. So far, so good! PRAISE GOD!!
Today, we'll be traveling to GROUND ZERO. The death toll has topped 34,000 & climbing.
May our Lord Jesus direct us each step of the way!!

GATHERING THE TROOPS & PACKING "RESCUERS" - DEATH TOLL TOPS 24,000!
Yesterday, I drove from Tennessee to Florida with 14 Air Mobile Rescuers aboard our little Ford Escape. The 720 mile leg went smooth.
This morning, our team will meet at Space Coast Regional Airport. There we'll prepare the Rescuers in their containers, along with our others supplies.
I'll be meeting Dr. Aaron Webb ( a great Doctor who has traveled the world with Air Mobile bringing CLEAN WATER following disasters.
I'll also be joined by Doug Rodante, a great pilot and Documentary film maker. Doug, also has traveled around the world numerous times with Air Mobile.
I know I've said this many times before, but a wise pastor once told me, "remember, God knows how to deploy His troops.
I'm THANKFUL that Dr. Aaron and Doug literally dropped everything to join me on this "Mission" to Turkey.

AIR MOBILE HEADING TO TURKEY!!
I just could not sit this one out. After a sleepless night and a lot of research into just what was happening in Turkey / Syria following DEADLY EARTHQUAKES....AIR MOBILE HAS TO GO!
The death-toll is steadily climbing and has passed 20,000! We're going into RAPID drive to get to Turkey with life-saving water purifiers.
We're extremely grateful to our local media for broadcasting our plans to go to Turkey.
Here is ABC WBIR CHANNEL 10 in Knoxville - AIR MOBILE GOING TO TURKEY
Then, CBS WVLT CHANNEL 8 in Knoxville aired this story - SNEEDVILLE PILOT / MISSIONARY HEADING TO TURKEY WITH WATER PURIFIERS
Normally, we bring in 10 Air Mobile Rescuers on our first mission to a disaster.
This time, I felt led by our Lord to bring in 14 units. PRAISE GOD, we had them built and ready to GO!
However, we're launching this "Mission" without a single unit funded.
We know that our Lord will provide. And...we're so THANKFUL to have you on-board with us with your faithful PRAYER, LOVE & SUPPORT!!
Well, it's time to hit the road for the 1000 mile journey to Miami where we'll catch a direct flight to Istanbul and then a domestic flight to Adana, Turkey, ground zero of this terrible earthquake!

A VERY LONG DAY &....A "GOD WINK*"
- An event or personal experience, often identified as coincidence, so astonishing that it is seen as a sign of divine intervention, especially when perceived as the answer to a prayer.
Cindy and I planned our trip to Nashville with a solid 2 hour buffer....just in case.
I was scheduled to have an MRI at Vanderbilt Medical. We left on time and worked our way over to I-40 and all was on schedule for this 250 mile leg.
About 130 miles into the trip, the old red Escape suddenly lost power. Cindy was driving this leg and pulled off the road. I noted that the temperature gauge was "pegged".
I quickly opened the hood and saw that the water / coolant reservoir was just a little bit low. I found three small partially drunk water bottles and filled the reservoir.
Mmmm, the reservoir did not spew out steaming hot water, yet every indication was an overheat.
Well, I stayed on the shoulder and could only get 10-15 mph. Fortunately, we were just over a mile from an exit.
In risk of damaging the head gasket, I chose to creep on the shoulder and try to get to a station and some help. We still had just under a 2 hour buffer. WE PRAYED all they way to the exit.
Upon reaching it, I asked Cindy which way should we turn to the nearest gas station. She said, turn left.
I carefully checked for traffic, as the old Escape was barely moving when....right in front of me was an old-fashioned auto repair shop.
I jumped over a short median and crept up to the middle bay door. The owner / head mechanic, Stan, was talking to a customer. I explained our situation and asked if I should shut it down.
He quickly nodded yes, "don't want to warp the head." After his customer left, Stan came over and began assessing the situation.
He carefully opened the reservoir, expecting a hot geyser to shoot out. No hot spew. He felt the engine compartment for excessive heat. All seemed normal.
Go ahead and crank it up. It had been about 5 minutes. It started right up and the temperature gauge was normal! This didn't make any sense. This was just plain weird. It should not cool down in just minutes.
Furthermore, I raced the engine and that too was normal. Earlier, I could barely get 1500 rpm.
What was going on??
I asked Stan to get his engine analyzer and check out the overheat code.
All was normal. Then....I began to know why we ended up in Stan's shop. When he plugged in the analyzer, he looked like he was going to pass out.
I quickly asked if I could PRAY. He weakly nodded, yes. Cindy and I prayed for Stan and after a few minutes, he regained a bit of strength.
He just looked at me and whispered "Black Lung Disease". I asked if he got it in the mines (this is coal country). He explained it was from Black mold in his home.
Back to the Escape. All was normal. I asked Stan if this was his car, would he drive it to Nashville (120 miles away). He said, "absolutely".
Well, Cindy and I drove on to Nashville and the temperature gauge was perfectly normal. We still had an hour to spare.
After my MRI, we headed back to our "Retreat Cabin". The temperature gauge never moved from "Perfectly Normal".
We rolled up to our cabin around midnight. What a day. Cindy and I PRAYED for Stan and then went to sleep.
Now, Folks, all I can say is...."THAT WAS A GOD WINK!!"
PLEASE join us in PRAYER for Stan!!
As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

PS - Next time we go to Nashville, we'll stop in and check on Stan. In the meantime, we'll PRAY for him.
BTW, there was NO CHARGE for the service.

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF...."THE CHINESE SPY BALLOON" EPISODE...
We will see just how much of the answers will be shared with plain old regular citizens such as us.
In the meantime, Mainstream News Agencies are searching for the next story or stories that will drive the ratings.
It may be a dramatic murder trial or Hunter's Laptop or another "spy" story. You never know.
We gather up the bits and pieces that we are fed and try to figure out our next move.
Folks, that's why we PRAY! We need our Lord's Direction in where to go and when to go.
Remember, going over a Prepper List, is a good thing to do from time to time. Never hurts.
Well, this morning, I'll be taking a drive to Nashville for some more medical tests at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC).

WHAT TO DO.....
There is no doubt, that this event was a Chinese provocation, and a deep "probe" to see just what the U.S. would do.
Folks, the fact is, there so so much that we DO NOT KNOW! However, there are things that we can do to protect ourselves during these PERILOUS TIMES.
Now, the first thing to do is....A.S.A.P. ( "ALWAYS - SAY - A - PRAYER")!!
Cindy and I would encourage you to look over your food supply, your medical supply, your water supply and a means to stay warm, etc. etc. if...."something happens".
Here's a simple PREPPING CHECK LIST to just get you thinking about "WHAT TO DO".
Believe me, this is not a bad exercise. It's always good to sharpen your survival skills.
Now, Cindy and I are not "Prophets of Doom". It's just a good idea to go over your situation and see what you can do to strengthen it.
We PRAY you have a BLESSED DAY and....just think about it.
As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

MAKING SOMEONE ELSES HAY....
After checking the radar, looked like the rain had passed. We'd been waiting for that.
So, Yahn and I hooked up our little red trailer to our old Dodge Ram and headed to a neighboring farm and loaded up 25 bales of some fine hay for our critters.
Good hay is a gift and helps us through the winter. Our critters sure appreciate it.
Got a question for you. Have you ever considered moving up to the Mountains of East TN?
Happen to know of a great one and....I'm married to her. Here's her info:
BTW, Creek Country Real Estate is owned by our dear friend Teresa Suarez.
We're BLESSED to have this great connection. Here's the phone number.
Now, here's an example of some of the "Treasures" you'll find up here.
Cindy and I first bought our "Retreat Cabin" up here 12 years ago and have not regretted it for a single Nano-second. BTW, I call it "God's Country".

And here we are, in between "Missions" and getting ready for...the Next Mission.

On this cold rainy day, the most important thing is to keep the coffee flowing and wood stove burning.
Yesterday, I spoke with several of our very dear friends who are currently in Haiti. They are "laying low" and staying off the streets.
Together, we're working on "evacuation plans".....should it become necessary.
I first went to Haiti in 1978 and must say, have never seen this desperate, poor, violent country in such bad shape.
Again, the gangs have almost completely taken over Haiti. It is just a terrible situation.

It wasn't that long ago that Christians all around the world were "restricted" from attending church.
Oh, it wasn't only Christians, but literally the whole world was on COVID LOCK DOWN.

We PRAY that it doesn't come to that.
As you read this rambling blog, take a few moments and enjoy the freedom that we have.
There are so many around the world that do not have this wonderful freedom. We PRAY for them!

SNUG.....
It's the simple things in life for which we're THANKFUL.
Sometimes it's good to just take inventory, look around and let THANKSGIVING flow through our hearts.
As you may know by now, I get up every morning, pour a cup of coffee and spend a few minutes pondering my life, the goodness of our Lord, and what this day may hold.
I often look back on what has transpired to get me to this "juncture of the journey" and then type a few words about it.
We've been together through earthquakes, typhoons, floods, hurricanes, war, brutal gangs, amazing rescues, cancer, cholera & other dread diseases and so much more.
We've prayed about so many things and looking back, we see the Hand of God in our lives in such wonderful ways.
Well, on this chilly Saturday morning, Cindy and I will take a ride together through these lovely Smokey Mountains, and look for some property for some of our friends....and just enjoying this precious time together.

Folks, we are teetering on the edge here and we certainly should PRAY as Russia threatens to "NUKE BERLIN!!"
Here at the "Retreat Cabin", we continue to prepare for our "next mission" and we monitor these late developments.
There is so much here, that I don't understand but....I know Who does!
We lean on Jesus and seek His direction for us.
THANK YOU, as always, for your precious prayer, love and support!!

A REMARKABLE REPORT....
Just moments ago, I spoke with Dr. Sherlyne's husband, Dr. Vital. His report was very encouraging. Dr. Sherlyne's condition is STABLE.
As you may know, Dr. Sherlyne had sepsis, a deadly infection that was ravaging her body. Well, the treatment and...THE PRAYERS are sustaining this lovely Doctor who has served so many with her skill and love.
Here's an excerpt from the "Go Fund Me" Page -
So, for now, the best thing for Dr. Sherlyne is to remain in Haiti and regain her strength.
Our personal friend and doctor, Dr. Steve Badolato is in touch with Dr. Vital and will be able to arrange a hospital to treat her in the U.S. ...if necessary.
We urge you to continue to PRAY for Dr. Sherlyne and again, THANK YOU for your faithful prayers!!!
Well, here at the "Retreat Cabin", we're staying warm thanks to our old wood stove and I'm catching up on a lot of paperwork for Air Mobile.
As always, THANK YOU for your faithful prayer, love and support!!

JOE.....SNOW
It's a cold rainy / snowy morning here at the "Retreat Cabin".
Went out to start our old 2000 Dodge Ram and the batteries are dead.

Yahn and I will be bringing it down to town for a fresh set of batteries.
So....we'll be ready to rock and roll....if necessary.
Just another day here in the mountains of East TN.
On another note, we're awaiting an update on Dr. Sherlyne's conditions. Last report was....she was stable. We continue to PRAY for this precious lady of God!!
As always, THANK YOU for your invaluable prayer, love and support!!!

JUST LIKE THAT....
Well, for the last 3 days, our internet has been down. We did have a very, very tiny signal with our I-phone, but it was barely functional.
Yahn, our trusty Water Mule and general chief technician worked and worked on it until....finally, we found the weak link.
Now, being without full functioning internet helped Cindy and I to catch up on reading and just have more sweet fellowship.
Of course, we've enjoyed the old wood stove immensely. So, we've taken this frustration and turned it into a blessing.
It's just so nice to be able to type freely and upload with ease and speed.
I know there are multiple lessons here. May we just draw closer to Jesus!!
Well, it's time for Church and maybe....we'll just throttle back a bit with all that good, strong internet.
As I say every single day and mean with all of my heart....THANK YOU for your faithful prayer, love and support!!

IN THE MOUNTAINS.....
Being tucked away in the lovely mountains of East TN has many advantages.
But....those lovely mountains sometimes, block internet signals.
I've connected to that tiny "hot spot" in my I-Phone and am able to get just enough signal to write my "rambling blog".
So, that's my challenge this morning. In the meantime, I can look out over our lovely valley with the mountains in the back-ground and savor a delicious cup of coffee and enjoy the silence.
As always, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

PS - We're awaiting a current update on our dear sister, Dr. Sherlyne. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY for her.
UPDATE ON DR. SHERLYNE 1-21-23 at 9:15 am.
I just spoke with Dr. Sherlyne's husband and he said that this morning, she is stable.
We are THANKFUL for that. Our hope and prayer is that she will continue to improve! THANK YOU for your vital prayers for this precious lady of God!!

SILENCE.....
We've been attempting to get a line through to check on the status of Dr. Sherlyene and have been unable to make contact. We will continue to reach out.
Note: In Haiti, it is not unusual for lines to be tied up like this.
In the meantime, we're PRAYING FOR A MIRACLE! Please continue to PRAY with us for this precious soul.
On another note, we're working hard to prepare as many Air Mobile Rescuers as we can for future deployments.

At this point, in this battle of life and death for this precious Doctor in Haiti, the best thing is for her to remain where she is and build up her strength.
Our PRAYERS are so vital and Dr. Sherlyne is fighting with all of her strength. PLEASE keep up the PRAYERS & LOVE!
We hope to get a report this morning. I'm so THANKFUL that our Dr. Steve Badolato and Dr. Sherlyne's husband, who is also a Doctor are working very closely together.
Haiti is in such terrible condition and they desperately need good Doctors.

AN URGENT CALL FROM HAITI!
Yesterday, received a prayer request for a Doctor (Pediatrician) in Haiti who needs IMMEDIATE EMERGENCY CARE to save her life.
First, we have been PRAYING for a MIRACLE!
Then, through a series of calls and tapping into some old and dear friends, we're lining up a Medi-Vac Jet to fly her to the U.S.
Then, we've secured a "Receiving Doctor" to meet the plane. THANK YOU DR. STEVE!!!
A GO FUND ME page has been set up and I urge you to give whatever you feel led to save this precious Doctors life in Haiti.

I'VE GOT A SECRET....
Well, with all of this TOP SECRET stuff going on, I was pondering what to write this morning.
Then, I recalled, as a kid, sitting around the Black & White TV, eating TV Dinners, and watching the panelist guess...THE SECRET.
BTW, Biden would have been a teenager at the time and likely watched the show and gotten a few tips & probably forgotten a few.
Enough about all of this. No telling where all of this will end.
Today, working on our taxes and planning our next "Mission(s)".
But....I'd like to believe we're getting a little older and wiser.
In the meantime, we PRAY FOR AMERICA to maneuver through all of this.
And....as I say every single day, THANK YOU for your precious prayer, love and support!!

On this crisp, beautiful morning, here at the "Retreat Cabin", we're PLANNING our next Missions.
2023 is definitely shaping up to be a challenging year.
As we follow the developments of the War in Ukraine, we're building more Air Mobile Rescuers for deployments into "HOT" regions where war is raging & CLEAN WATER is desperately needed.
Likewise, we're developing PLANS for Emergency Rescue flights to Haiti and getting in position to move those in extreme danger OUT of Haiti.
More to come on these Missions, as they develop.
In the meantime, here at the "Retreat Cabin", we're just enjoying the peace and beauty that we have here.

72 YEARS AGO TODAY.....
I recall my mother telling me the story of the birth. It was a very difficult delivery, long hours in labor....and at birth her baby boy contracted Viral Pneumonia and fought between life and death.
Apparently, our Lord Jesus had plans for that little boy.
Well, I'm glad he survived....enough to write this rambling blog today.
PRAISE GOD....it's good to be alive!!

HACKED???
It is rather strange that Canada had a similar problem. Again, we may never know.
Our hope and prayer is that this event will cause a solid review of our ATC Systems and proper redundancies will be put into place.
And, on another note, the latest revelation regarding the 2nd batch of MISSING Classified Docs found in Biden's private office is quite revealing.
All I can say is....I hope and pray that EQUAL JUSTICE WILL BE DONE! We'll see....

20,000 OPERATIONS!!
Yesterday, meeting my surgeon Dr. Smith, of Vanderbilt University Medical Center, was a true blessing.
I understand why my Urologist told me to see Dr. Smith. He is a Legend in this type of surgery....having performed over 20,000 such operations!
His quiet confidence and vast knowledge is very comforting.
We've already scheduled a series of scans and another biopsy to see just what is going on in me.
I'd like to add that Dr. Smith goes to Africa 4 times a year and does amazing work with those less fortunate.
We also discussed the desperate need for CLEAN WATER. I'm sending him info on the Air Mobile Rescuer water purifier.
THANK YOU JESUS!!
So, Cindy and I headed back home from Nashville, which is, an amazing and beautiful city.
All I can say is PRAISE GOD for His AMAZING GRACE!!

A DAY AT THE "OFFICE"....
Yes, it's good to be home at our sweet "Retreat Cabin".
Today, I'll be working in the Air Mobile office answering correspondence and sending out "Receipt" letters.
As always, we're planning our "Next Mission(s)". It's good to know, if need be, that we can now increase our aviation outreach with the addition of Captain John A.'s Skymaster.
As we launch into 2023, we see so many areas of extreme need. Yesterday, I spoke with my dear friend and Brother in Christ, Bobby Burnette of Love-A-Child Mission.
Bobby gave me the harrowing details of a recent kidnapping of 17 "Love-A-Child" employees. After 13 days, they were released..... MIRACULOUSLY!!
Unfortunately, one lady died in this brutal attack. Please pray for her family.
PLEASE - PLEASE REMEMBER TO PRAY FOR HAITI & THOSE WHO ARE RISKING THEIR LIVES TO HELP OTHERS!
The suffering due to the terrible Gang activity is staggering. None of this is getting into the news.

ENLARGING AIR MOBILE.....
Yesterday morning, I had the pleasure to meet John A, a UPS 767 Captain.
Well, our meeting yesterday went just great! John has agreed to make himself and his Skymaster available to Air Mobile as needed.
He'll even be moving his Skymaster from Melbourne, FL to the hangar right next door to the Little Donkey!
In essence, Air Mobile's "Fleet", just DOUBLED in size and capability!
As we look ahead to 2023, we know that there are great challenges ahead. Along with those CHALLENGES, we have great OPPORTUNITIES before us.
John A is a solid believer in our Lord Jesus and as we concluded our great meeting yesterday, our PRAYER was simply.....Dear Lord, have Your way with us and above all, THY WILL BE DONE!!
PRAISE GOD!!!
Well, after our great 4 hour meeting, I hit the road for our beloved "Retreat Cabin". Got about half there and pulled into a comfortable hotel somewhere in South Carolina.

AN EXCITING FOOTBALL GAME - A TRAGIC BLOW TO THE HEART & MEETING WITH A VERY DEAR OLD FRIEND...
Yesterday was filled with "Roller Coaster Emotions"!
After the game, I headed over to my best friend's home, Joe Polozola who lives in near-by Longwood, FL.
Joe introduced me to Jesus over 50 years ago, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
Joe and I meet fairly regularly and the fellowship is rich, as we recall the AMAZING GRACE that brought me to Jesus.
It was early in the first quarter when we saw Damar Hamlin go down.
We like so many waited for him to get up. He did not. It appears that he suffered a massive heart attack right before our eyes. WE IMMEDIATELY PRAYED & continue to do so for Damar to recover.
Here's more on this tragic blow to the heart - BUFFALO BILL'S HAMLIN IN CRITICAL CONDITION
So, we ask you to join us in PRAYER for Damar and his family.
It's time for me to bid farewell to my dear friends, Joe and Diane Polozola.
I have another meeting in Titusville this morning with a UPS Captain who has a sweet little Cessna 337 Skymaster and wants to put it to work for our Lord Jesus.

A FOGGY MORNING.....WHERE'S RUDOLPH?
Departed the "Retreat Cabin" early yesterday morning. A lot of heavy fog as I worked my way out of the Mountains of East TN.
The rest of the 12 journey went smooth with no major delays along the way.
Pulled into my son, Christian's lovely home around 9:30 pm. Had a lovely meal and called it a day.
Where's Rudolph??
Christian and Ann Marie have a lovely home and I'm so proud of them for their deep dedication to our Lord Jesus.
Yes, I'm pulling for my LSU Tigers, who had a remarkably good season with their new Coach Brian Kelly. He's doing a good job and the team had some incredible victories this year.

Looking back on 2022, we find some sad and tragic events. Russia invaded Ukraine and now, the world is teetering on the precipice of Nuclear War!
In Haiti, in the midst of a terrible Cholera outbreak, renegade Gangs are ruling the streets and stopping relief agencies from bringing life-giving help to the suffering and dying.
Covid -19, and it's variants are breaking out in China and other parts of the world.
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!!
We PRAY for God's Peace to sweep over the Earth this New Year!
Cindy prepared an amazing Feast here at the "Retreat Cabin" yesterday. What a lovely and delicious way to bring in the New Year!
Well, Cindy and I are up early this morning. I'm doing a final pack and filling my coffee thermos and about to "Hit the Road" for Florida.
While in Florida, I'll be in exciting meetings discussing the expansion of Air Mobile. Will write more on that later.
For now, it's time to head out the door for the 12 hour drive down to Florida.
