At MMS we begin each day in prayer. It's an opportunity to pray for the projects in the hangar, personal needs, requests that come our way, safety and wisdom in the hangar (or administrative offices as the case may be). Once prayer time is over, the teams gather at their respective projects to begin the day. One of the current projects in Hangar C is a Phase Inspection on Gospel Carrier's (GCI) King Air (seen in the background). A question arose about a "stop bolt" - what is it, what is it's purpose in the structure of the landing gear? To help the apprentices visualize the bolt, Dennis brought out the Parts Manual and the Service Manual for the King Air and a valuable discussion and learning session began. What a privilege to be working on "live" missionary aircraft, returning them to service in the process. This King Air 200 is used by a Chinese evangelist (and evanglism team) who brings the gospel (through crusades, home meetings, etc) to Chinese living in the United States. Doing the routine maintenance and inspections on this plane (at no charge for our labor) is one of the ways we can be part of GCI's ministry.
