Bringing Comfort to the Skies: LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs Visit United Airlines Staff

LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs Jael (Trinity - Hobart, Indiana), Michael  (LCC Staff) and LCC Comfort Dogs in Training Gethsemane, Glory, and Honey attended the United Airlines Flight Attendant Safety Fair at Chicago O’Hare International Airport. 

The handlers and Comfort Dogs had the opportunity to connect with flight attendants, pilots, and administrative staff. Many pilots and flight attendants expressed their gratitude, sharing that their jobs prevent them from having dogs, making the chance to cuddle with the Comfort Dogs especially meaningful. Others who do have pets but were away from them cherished the time spent with the dogs. One pilot, preparing for a long and challenging flight, said that spending time with the comfort dogs truly made his day.
 
The importance of being present with the flight attendants, pilots, and staff of United Airlines was clear to the teams. These dedicated individuals bear significant responsibility each day, ensuring the safety and security of passengers aboard their flights. Witnessing their faces light up with smiles and their shoulders relax, finding comfort and peace in the moment, highlighted the value of these visits and the care and compassion provided by the handlers and ministry partners.
 
We lift up in prayer the flight attendants and pilots for God’s strength, wisdom, and patience as they navigate the challenges of their job. We ask for God’s protection, both in the air and on the ground. We pray they find joy in their work and a sense of purpose in serving others.
 
"Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life." (Psalm 143:8)
