Linnie is a pilot with AIM AIR and is also the Training Officer which keeps him plenty busy. The Weeks have 3 children and 2 grand children.  "We are so happy that God has called us to serve here in East Africa with AIM AIR." Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.  Matthew 9:38 NKJ
