A: What do missionaries do when: 1. The country in which they serve has no postal service.
2. Their child is gravely ill and the nearest hospital is an 11-hour drive away. (Sometimes 2 or 3 weeks away by dugout canoe.)
3. The tribal people need a doctor, but the doctor has only a week to treat everyone and it's a 3 day walk, one-way, to their village.
4. Their car breaks down and it takes 6 months to get repair parts.
5. Their children who attend school in a neighboring country want to come home for the holidays.
6. The Missionaries would minister to many tribes in a week but it takes too long to get to the other tribes.
7. The flooded rivers have isolated their village again, cutting off and food or supply lines, as well as, any escape.
This is why missionary pilots go to the field!
