Dear friends and family,

We have two great pieces of news!

First, what we thought might be cancer for Sheea is NOT!  This is clearly a huge relief to us.  The doctor said that she will still need surgery (a hysterectomy) but he described the procedures they use these days as the equivalent of a “minor” surgery. It is obviously not minor in consequences, and mentally but it is good to know that the physical recovery should be relatively easy.

The surgery is scheduled for July 15th.

Second, after studying 8 hours a day for 3 days, Tony took the FAA Instrument Written Test and passed with flying colors!  (You have to take the written before you can take the practical test.)  Now, the remainder of the training schedule (listed here) will continue as planned.

Prayer Requests:

Flight training: That God would meet our training finances through lesson sponsors or other means.

Flight training: That Tony would be able to absorb, retain, and perfect what he learns.

Surgery:  That all would go well and that Sheea with God’s help is able to “stand up under” the major change.

As always, we are ready and willing to talk on the phone with you if you’d like more details about any of this!
