Flight Update! The Good And The Bad

We have an emergency medical flight secured!! This is the good news. The bad news is the cost is $140,000. Unfortunately the other flight situation we were pursuing for much less is not going to work out. So get the word out! We need to raise much, much more than we had anticipated. If you are able to donate even $5 it will make a difference.

Alvin's adoptive dad, along with Patty (and possibly some other AOH staff) will be flying home with him on the emergency medical flight.

Paperwork is being processed and we are hoping to have Alvin out of here on Saturday. Alvin is hanging in there but as I mentioned before; he could take a turn for the worse at any moment. But we are trusting that God will spare Alvin and that he will be able to make it to his new family and the care he needs in the US. We are trusting that the staggering amount of $140,000 raised will be a great testimony of the Body of Christ coming together to save one of God's precious children. We are trusting that Alvin will grow to be a great testimony of God's goodness to the least of these, the seemingly forgotten. Don't loose your opportunity to become a part of this amazing story! Click here to donate now (specify "Alvin's Flight").

ALVIN IS WORTH IT!!!
