Fwd: Nina's Grandmother's death

Dear Friends and Family:

Well it has been a rough week. Early on Sunday morning when we were gearing up for teaching the weeks lesson we received and e-mail letting us know that Nina's grandmother (who Nina spent a lot of time with growing up with and is named after ) had died.

We got on the radio with our base and our pilot/support team did a great job of getting us out of the bush the next day. We debated sending Nina and Beau back but being at least 19 hours of flying away and with a long list of issues that pop up with moving across so many countries so fast it didn't seem to be the right choice.

We have been out at our base for 4 days now and have caught up on all the details and issues with the funeral and memorial and have been able to talk with family through this tough one. Pray for Nina as we get ready to head back in the bush and not being able to be home for this.

 

Thanks for your prayers,

Brooks
