A Chaplain's Prayer Request

Chaplain Martin Booth

by MARTIN R. BOOTH, Ch, Capt, USAF

This was a big week. I flew on a Medical Evacuation mission. Everything went very smoothly. There were ample opportunities for ministry. Once again, all of you should be proud of our aircrews and the medical folks that fly these missions. It truly was an honor and privilege to be there. The pilot is a regular attendee at one of the services that I lead, so that was a bonus.

We also had Wingman Week, which meant I had to give extra briefs and attend BBQs. That’s not exactly hardship duty, now is it?

We also had fog and dust storms all in one week. Sounds pretty apocalyptic, but it is bearable. Actually, at this time of year, the weather here is usually beautiful.

Continue to pray for the people that I counsel. God knows their names and that is the most important thing. Also, pray for the injured that were on the Med Evac.

Time is going quickly. I'm in a routine and that helps the effectiveness.

I have to scoot, as usual. Thanks again for all of your prayer support and being the cool people that
you are.

Blessings,
