Prayer Request April 11

From our BFA Alumni about the search for their dad....

"Wanted to thank all of you for thinking of my family and keeping us in your prayers. For those of you who don’t know what’s going on, my dad, Jerry Krause’s plane went missing on Sunday on a flight between South Africa and Mali, around the island of Sao Tome, off the southern coast of Nigeria and the west coast of Gabon . 

The US Embassy has started a search, along with the French Coast Guard as well as a few missions. Tomorrow is an important day for the search. Here are some things I’d like you to be praying for…

Pray for the plane to be found whether he is alive or with Jesus.
Pray for good weather so that the two search planes can go out as planned.
Pray that Sao Tome gets investigated by CAA South Africa so that the recordings tell the truth.
Pray for my family, as well as my grandparents, and especially for my dad.
Pray for data retrieval on his iPhone, that the battery will send off a signal and we can try to track it tomorrow.
Pray for Dad to have hope and strength and ministering angels around him."

Madrid, planes trains buses !

Last weekend Rob Chaperoned the Spanish 3 class field trip to Madrid, Spain.   It was a fast trip and cut a day short for Rob and one student.  They arrived at the airport with all the students and they were ready to board and realized one students boarding pass was for the return not the first leg of the flight.  Rob went back to get  a new boarding pass with the student and missed the boarding time.  Thats where their adventure began!   They then had to take a bus from the airport in France to the train station  in Switzerland for a 3 hour train ride to Geneva then wait 4 hours until the next flight to Madrid!   With God's protection they made it safely !
