Bad Weather

The last two days has been really challenging for our pilots. We only have two at the moment in the programme due to delayed furloughs and holidays etc. Laura couldn't get back from Sudan yesterday due to bad weather so had to divert and stop overnight in the north of Uganda. She was planning to get out early this morning as she had another flight but that wasn't possible either. Simon is in a similar situation today in that he had to divert to Gulu (northern Uganda) due to bad weather. I just got a phone call about 10 minutes ago from him saying that he was going to try again but there was the likelihood of him having to turn around and do an overnight. Laura is also trying to get back tonight. Please pray for Simon and Laura at this time as they battle the weather and also for their passengers. Some folks are now travelling by road so that they can make their international connection. Pray for safety for them as they travel on treachourous roads.
