Things have probably quietened down enough for us to post this one now, this happened back in May 2013 with a great and precious brother called Jetter. We worked together for a while, here is a serious of texts I received from him while he was away leading a team of young volunteer missionaries, mostly in there teens to an island group in the mid Philippines.
Late we will post more of Jetters experiences and my guess is you will probably never have heard anything like them, this one is mild.
