"Expected and Unexpected" Trips

Kent's brother, Doug, is expected to enter the joys of heaven in just a matter of days (or even possibly hours). Bless his dear heart, he is so sick, unable to eat, and waiting upon God's call to come Home.

Unexpectedly, the executive boss man of Kent's sister, graciously donated 90,000 "frequent flyer miles" to secure a round trip ticket for Kent to fly from Fiji to North Carolina and back. Kent is in hopes of seeing Doug before He leaves for heaven, but that is up to the Lord and His perfect Will and timing.

Please pray for Becky and the children (Jeremy & Katelyn) as they'll once again be left behind in Fiji while Kent is away. Ask God to comfort the hearts of Doug's family and especially, our Mom, who already feels the loss. Should God choose to grant him one more day of life, Doug will be 53 years old on November 12th.

Trust God will give your safety in such a long flight and opportunity to see your brother one more time. Praying for your trip.
