COINCIDENCE OR GOD's PLANNING

Here the first part of the story:

I was planning a flight to support Pathway Camp Ministry’s effort working together with their associates Phil Hood and Greg Meeres (Greg has filmed documentaries all over the world) and approximately 15 students from Grades 8 & 9 producing a video for the Community of Bloodvein MB, a community, only accessible by plane, boat or winter-road.

My part was to fly the students and the filmmakers over the community, so they could have some air shootings and to deliver a box with bibles for the students involved.

Now the "Coincidence or God's Planning" part:

Marge from Lifelight http://www.lifelightministries.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=2 called and asked for a story how we as Northern Eagle Ministries deliver bibles into the Fly-In Communities of Northern Manitoba, referring to plans Wayne Herrod (volunteering for Lifelight) and I had weeks ago, flying into these Northern Communities and handing out Bibles.

Because we haven’t gone, I didn’t had a story, but I told her about my planning, the empty space in my plane and the time I have to go to two other communities before I am expected to fly the students with their film crew, and she was wondering, why she had an e-mail on her computer, saying that Bloodvein Nursing Station requested bibles – coincidence – I don’t believe that.

It took Marge and Wayne only 4 hours to organize bibles, talking to principles and nurses in charge of 3 northern communities, and I received 19 boxes with 755 lbs bibles (about 750 books) and was on my way to load the plane up to the ceiling and max. load incl. fuel and two guys.

With me came the Director of “Youth for Christ” Selkirk and we visited the nursing stations and schools of Poplar River First Nation, Berens River First Nation and Bloodvein First Nation, handing out easy-to-read bibles and had some good chats with the nurses in charge, health director’s and principles.

We had a longer talk with Jackie Everett, Health Director Berens River, about the problems people facing in the remote Northern Communities: the effects of loss of family through foster care, suicide, addictions and violence.
