M. B. Missionaries On Lost Plane
JOHN A. DYCKS & MARLENE ON PLANE WHICH CRASHED IN COLOMBIA
Hillsboro, Kan. — Since Saturday evening, March 9, the Mennonite Brethren Church Board of Foreign Missions Office here has received several communications from Colombia regarding a plane crash involving their missionaries, Brother and Sister John A. Dyck and little daughter Marlene.
The Dycks were traveling by plane from the Choco (province of Colombia in which they are stationed) to the city of Cali. According to last word received on Monday, March 11, the wrecked plane was spotted about 20 minutes flying distance from Cali.
Observations were that there were no signs of life. It will take several days, however, for a party to reach the scene of wreckage by foot to determine what happened to the 15 occupants of the two-motored plane. The stretch over which the plane was flying was jungle territory and some terrain.
The earnest intercession and prayerful remembrance of the churches is invited anew in behalf of the missionaries in view of this accident.
