Home Run!!
Bulk Fuel Tank has been ordered
Home Run! The Bulk Fuel Tank is fully funded!
Thanks to all of you who generously donated to provide the fuel tank for our aviation program in Papua New Guinea. The project is now fully funded, and the first fuel order has been provided for. It is exciting to see the Lord supply as all of you prayed and gave toward this need. The momentum has been amazing!
Because of your faithful giving, we have already placed the order for the tank from a company in Australia. Our team in PNG is pouring the foundation so that the concrete will have cured and be ready for the tank as soon as it arrives. Please pray for the shipping process and arrival of the tank.
Additional contributions will go towards the PNG flight program for ongoing needs such as fuel and maintenance. If you would like to continue supporting the PNG flight program, simply donate to Ethnos360 Aviation General Giving Fund and designate it towards the PNG flight program needs.
Rolls-Royce helicopter engine
The challenge before us is constant and needs regularly arise in maintaining a flight program that is the lifeline to 43 different church planting works across PNG. For example, a recent event that surprised our team in PNG was an R66 helicopter engine flaw that caused a major oil leak. The failure requires the engine to be sent to Rolls-Royce in Australia for repair. We shipped our spare engine from Arizona by FedEx to get the helicopter back in the air serving the church planting missionaries. The spare engine has been installed, and the failed engine will be shipped out for repair. We have no idea what the total shipping and repair costs will come to, but that is a glimpse into some of the major ongoing needs of our PNG flight program.
Thank you for being a part of supporting this ministry.
