Our Mission

Sharing the love of Jesus Christ through aviation and technology so that isolated people may be physically and spiritually transformed.

“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?” —Luke 15:4 (NIV)

Bring Home the Lost Sheep ... Dear Friends,

Managing Editor: Tracey Werre Production Manager: Kelly Hewes

Art Director: Colby Dees

Design: Clayton Borah Writers/Resourcing: Chris Burgess Jennifer Wolf

EVERY GIFT YOU SEND, every prayer you offer for MAF, helps change lives through aviation and technology.

When asked why He was spending his time with sinners, tax collectors, and society’s other outcasts, Jesus responded with a parable about a determined shepherd who stopped at nothing to bring one lost sheep back to his flock.

We enjoy hearing from you! Please send comments and questions to MAF-US@maf.org.

It has always been the mission of MAF to reach the dear ones the world has forgotten—taking incredible measures to ensure even the most remote people have a chance to hear the Gospel message. I feel a holy pride knowing MAF empowers our partner organizations and churches to work toward the same goal.
