Dear
friends and family, Dec,
14 2015
Merry
Christmas!
It
is so exciting to see how the Lord is leading our little family in service for
Him! We are more sure than ever that the choice to serve Him full-time is the
best thing we’ve ever done.
Your
prayers and support mean so much to us! Because of your generous giving, we exceeded
our training fund raising goal! Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.
Training
report: Training is going well. In September, Blaine Cyr, flew with us
to TN as safety pilot for Edwin on a trip to see family. At the conclusion of
that trip, he had added almost 12 hours of IFR experience, bringing the total
to 35 hours, toward the 40 hour minimum required by the FAA for the instrument
rating. The information is proving to be very challenging as he studies
for the written exam. As of this date, Edwin has just over 224 hours total
time, 75 hours cross country (only 50 hours required) and 44.5 hours
instrument/hood time (only 40 required). He still needs to take the written
exam, do a 250 nautical mile instrument cross country with the instructor and make
sure that he is ready to take the practical exam to become an instrument rated
pilot. Please keep Edwin in prayer as he studies for these exams.
We
will be going to serve in Guyana, soon! We have been talking with
James Ash from Guyana. He is chief pilot for Guyana Adventist Ministries and
Services (GAMAS) in Guyana. GAMAS has accepted our application to work with and
learn from them in Guyana. We will be working with the Ash and Anderson
families. We are planning to join them in Guyana in January or February, Lord
willing.
Please
continue to pray for us as we sort and pack the items we need to take with us
and store the things we don’t. We will be cleaning out and selling the travel
trailer that we have been living in. Pray that we can find a buyer this time of
year.
Thank
you again for your support through the Humanitarian Relief Foundation Inc.
If you are interested in continuing to support our family, please send your
donations to GMI (Gospel Ministries International). We are now raising our
launching budget of $3800, which includes airfare and what we need to get set
up in Guyana, and our budget of $1200 per month. Thank you again for your
generous support in helping us reach these goals. We appreciate you
helping us to make this a reality.
We
care about each one of you and pray that the Lord will bless you
and your families during this Holiday season and always. We will keep you
informed as the Lord continues to unfold His exciting plan for our lives.
Much
love,
Edwin,
Laura and Kathryn Davidson
