A Christmas Delivery to Yuma

A Christmas Delivery to Yuma

Load of supplies donated to Yuma

We were thrilled to deliver a massive load of food, clothes and other supplies to Yuma, Ariz.

as part of our 2016 Christmas Airlift. There was so much to take that Wings of Faith volunteer pilot Jason Ramirez drove the supplies from our hangar in Corona, Calif. Jason took some photos and wrote this note after the trip:

“I wanted to share a couple pictures with you from the Yuma trip. The load we took on the flatbed truck filled two of the missionaries’ pickup trucks and three pallets were hauled away in Alex Montoya's box truck. They were so blessed to receive the toys from the Christmas Airlift along with the food and clothing. Bud Eaton was very grateful to see boxes of the Gospels of John. One of the missionaries, Mike Clausen, was praying for oatmeal, and we had several huge boxes of oatmeal in the truck.”
