DanDeb Flying For MAF

Past, present and future....

past....

..is our beautiful wedding day..

..as well as our honeymoon in Sardinia.

Six months of Bible school at Capernwray Hall in England, where we were blessed with new friendships, a lot of knowledge and love, are as well behind us.

What remains is our love for Jesus and the desire to live a life for His glory, a life that is a blessing to others. Remained is also the plan to fly with MAF in a foreign country.

Therefore our present time is filled with packing, making vaccinations, calling a hundred and one offices to get every paper we need, raising our financial support and to say good bye to friends and family. Additional to that, Daniel is learning English grammar for the IELTS test, which he needs to pass, otherwise we can not apply for a working visa. He is also repeating all the aeronautical knowledge. So we do not get bored at the moment:-)

Till last week it was our plan to leave Switzerland on the 26^th of May, to spend three months in Cairns and Melbourne with cultural training and the conversion of Daniel's flying license. While waiting for the working visa we already would have flown to Arnhemland, part of the Northern Territory in Australia, where the Aboriginals are located. We would have moved in our house and got used to our new life there.

But during the last couple of weeks the Australian government decided to change the working visa regulations. Five years of working experience is now demanded. A capability, that Daniel and most of the other pilots applying for the Arnhemland program do not have.

So at the moment we are waiting and praying that God opens a door for us to an other country..   our future is in His hands!
