. . . Now is the time.


Our

Heritage 1945

MAF was founded by World War ll pilots who had a vision for how aviation could be used to overcome barriers of terrain and take the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

1946

Pilot Betty Greene flew the first MAF plane, a 1933 red Waco biplane, on its inaugural flight, transporting 2 Wycliffe Bible translators to a remote jungle location in Mexico.

1956

MAF came to worldwide attention when MAF pilot Nate Saint and four other missionaries were martyred in Ecuador by Auca Indians. Since those days, MAF has grown and evolved to meet the changing needs of the isolated and impoverished people it serves.


Our

Mission

Sharing the love of Christ through aviation and technology so that isolated people may be physically and spiritually transformed. MAF-US serves more than 600 Christian and humanitarian organizations through: AVIATION

A fleet of 60+ aircraft flying 2.7 million miles each year in the remote regions of the world.

COMMUNICATIONS

Communication services to isolated areas worldwide, including email, HF/VHF radios, VSAT broadband Internet access, and networking solutions.

LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES

Strategic distance learning tools and support to meet the critical need for trained Christian leadership in developing countries.


For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. Mark 10:45


PRAY

Now is the time.

“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” Ephesians 6:18

PRAYER

is a ministry to which every Christian is called. The rewards are as great for those who pray and send as for those who go to the front lines of missions.

Some of us are called to GO Some of us are called to SEND All of us are called to PRAY

Prayer Connection, a weekly prayer bulletin, is available through the MAF website at www.maf.org/connect/prayer.
