Dear Family and Friends,

Thank you to each of you as you stand with us here in

Indonesia. We are so grateful for the family of God!

In Hosea God says, “For I desire mercy not sacrifice, and

acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.” May we

show mercy and acknowledge God to those around us each day.

We continue to

serve the people

of Kalimantan and

Papua. There is

no end to the

challenges in

keeping up with

the ever-changing

regulations. We

are grateful we

still can show mercy and point people to God here in this place.

One way of showing mercy is helping with the sick. We

often evacuate people to better medical care or transport

medical workers and their supplies into the villages to minister

to the whole village.

Investing in and training our

national MAF staff is part of our

purpose as well. Arleon just returned

from the States with an FAA

avionics Repairman Certificate in

hand. This will further allow him to

work on our MAF planes and sign off

maintenance completed. What a huge

blessing and another step forward.

Supporting health workers

Helping a lady that had a stroke by get-

ting her to better medical care.

Caring, encouraging, and supporting our four

new MAF staff families as they learn the

Indonesian language and culture is a joy for us.

This is a stretching time for each family as they

adjust to living away from what is familiar and

embracing the changes and differences that

another culture brings. We’re privileged to come

alongside them during this transition. Pray that

we may truly be a blessing to them.

We are grateful for friends here in Jakarta

amidst the busyness of the city. We have known

these friends prior to coming to Jakarta as they

have graciously helped MAF with electrical

supplies from their store for many years, whether

just routine items needed or a huge order of wire

and lighting for an MAF building project. They are

always willing to help.

We really appreciate your prayers!

Many Blessings, Jonathan and Cindee

Hanging out with the Salatiga Language School Gang

Jonathan was able to visit the Tarakan and

Palangkaraya bases located in Kalimantan

and connect with them as we work through

some operational challenges. These teams

are filled with faithful coworkers diligent in

doing the work the Lord has given them to

be a blessing to the people of Kalimantan!

Grateful for friendships!

Palangkaraya team trusting and serving the Lord each day!
