Great Commission Air

I had a great lunch today with Robert and Jennifer Rice. They have ministry, Great Commission Air, that provides air transportation for Christian missions and humanitarian relief, primarily in Guatemala. This involves anything from flying supplies to missionaries serving in remote locations to flying injured or sick children to Guatemala City for urgent medical care.

Right now they're back in the states trying to raise enough support to return to Guatemala for two years. They've raised enough to cover their basic expenses (which doesn't take much down there) but still need to raise about $40,000 to cover the operational costs of flying the plane 50 hours a month.

If you're feeling generous (and/or a prompting by the Holy Spirit), take a minute and donate to their cause. You'll be glad you did.
