Its a Boy!
Last summer in Lesotho, I was working in the hangar when
we received a call about a young lady with labor
complications. She needed immediate transport from
Mokhotlong to the local hospital. I quickly got my airplane
ready and along with an intern (who is also an EMT), we
departed to pick her up.

After loading her into the airplane, it became clear that the
contractions were increasing, and there was the possibility
we would have a baby born in the airplane. Thankfully the
baby held off until we landed in Maseru, but as we were
taxiing in, I noticed the ambulance was not waiting for us as
we had requested. We shut the airplane down and moved
her to the front corner of the hanger where we helped to
deliver a baby boy. But the baby was quiet and was not
wanting to breathe. Josh (the intern) and I quickly took the
baby boy to the radio room where I began to do some chest
compressions and he worked the air bag. In the hangar our
MAF staff and some outside visitors gathered together to
pray over the baby boy while we continued to work. After
about 10 minutes, he began to breathe on his own and his heartbeat began to stabilize.

Though we no longer serve in Lesotho, my new role at MAF headquarters in Idaho is just as vital
to enabling MAF to function around the world. Just as our missionaries on the field depend on
the work we do here at headquarters, we also still need the support of many like yourselves as
we work in this new more global capacity. We look forward to sharing with you as we
transition to this new phase of worldwide ministry.

with the Clarks & Thiemanns. We served with
both families for many years in Lesotho.

For my last flight in Lesotho, I got to take some dear friends on a


short trip to see the beauty of Lesotho from the sky. The Vander-
lindes live on a farm in South Africa and have housed our Lesotho
team in times of evacuation. Our whole family has grown to love
them dearly and appreciate their friendship. They also adopted
our dog Sunshine who is loving living on the farm and has be-
come a loved and useful member of their family.
