We would like to dedicate this letter in memory of our little Elisha Quinton Blair, 7 year old son of KIAM station manager, Brian Blair.

After two heart surgeries within one month to repair an aortic aneurysm, he went home to be with the Lord Jesus on December 13, 2007.The funeral was in Nenana on December 20 and although it was minus 45 degrees, there were more than 100 in attendance, showing their love and concern for Elisha’s family and friends.We are very thankful for each of you.

Elisha Quinton Blair March 14, 2000 - December 13, 2007

Elisha’s favorite song is: "Trust and obey for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey." Elisha loved the Lord and has no more pain. Please pray for his family.Elisha memorized a lot of Scripture. The morning of his home going, his mom heard him say, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."Philippians 4:13

P.S. - A memorial gift honoring James & Gertrude Lozier was misspelled in our Christmas letter.

All because of Christ,
Robert C. Eldridge
General Director
