Missionary Flights International

The post below was taken off the Missionary Flights International Website: http://www.missionaryflights.org
This is such a worth while organization to support.

At Missionary Flights International most flights are very routine and that is the way we like it. However, sometimes the flights are not routine. On Sunday morning, October 18, we received an urgent call from a missionary in Haiti. The Timothy Reinhard family had been in a serious motorcycle accident. Would MFI fly to Port-au-Prince, Haiti to pick them up? Tim and two of the children were in serious condition. Our pilots were at church, but we always have our cell phones on vibrate because we are the emergency air link for the mission community and we must be available at all times. Before we took off from Fort Pierce, we received a call that little 5-year-old Gabriel Reinhard had departed this life and went home to be with the Lord. Now there were two seriously injured family members. We landed in Port-au-Prince at 7 p.m. and the family of 7 including little Gabriel were waiting for our arrival. We quickly loaded the family and a missionary doctor for the flight back to West Palm Beach and the stateside hospital. We landed in West Palm Beach at 11:40 p.m. Sunday evening. Customs quickly cleared the family and they were soon on their way to the emergency room. Gabriel was met by the funeral home. The family spent the night in the hospital in West Palm Beach. The next morning they were able to board an airline and fly home to Morton, IL. There will be surgeries later on father and daughter’s knees, but they will recover. Please join MFI in praying for the Reinhard family. Your gifts and your prayers make it possible for MFI to be available to the mission community for any emergencies.
