Good News from Christian Flights International (CFI)

Late this afternoon Scott Mandl of CFI sent in the following:

First I wanted to let you know we have had a great response to our Hurricane Relief initiative. We have sent $4,000 for emergency food down this week and already have over $7,000 more pledged that will be sent down next week. The second amount also includes money for seeds to help families replenish their family gardens wiped out by the storms. As more comes in, we will continue to send it down to provide critically needed help. If you know of a church or individual that wants to help, let them know about us.

I should note that 100% of the Hurricane Relief donations will go just to that -- not to any other CFI programs.

Second, I would like to ask your help in an unusual way. Next week is our CFI Board meeting. During this time, our nine board members assemble for a couple of days to meet, pray, review and plan the ministry of CFI. We do this twice each year. These folks not only are regular donors, they give generously of their time and expertise to help this ministry in a vital way. To attend our meetings, they drive, at their own cost, from as far away as Florida and North Carolina. Most are Team Leaders who have taken numerous teams to Haiti, while paying their own way in the process, and accepting a lot of work and responsibility. They are leaders, and they are selfless servants.

CFI would like to show our appreciation to this group by taking them to the UK-WKU game Saturday, Sept. 27. We currently have 4 tickets but need 8 more for this game (or even entry into a box -- whatever works!). If you have tickets you aren't using or have connections to anyone who could help us get these folks in to the game, it would be much appreciated.

Just drop me an email and I'll get back to you as quickly as possible.

Thanks & God Bless,

Scott
