Many people have been asking us, "What about Ebola?" Yes, it's definitely on our mind--but not in a worrisome way, and Lord-willing, it will not cross borders into Angola or it will be largely taken care of by May, our estimated departure month. However, Ebola has become a problem in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), where MAF staff currently serve. Thankfully, God has uniquely placed MAF in a role to help serve doctors and patients of Ebola through the transportation of medical supplies and personnel to the remote areas affected. For more information, see MAF UK's two news updates: September 4--MAF Delivers Ebola Relief in the DRC and the October 3rd update.
Let's keep praying for the doctors, patients, and MAF staff dealing with the Ebola outbreak! We feel honoured to be serving with an organization that can play a role in helping out our African brothers and sisters, and we look forward to how God will use MAF staff as they continue to help!
Marcel and Kelly
