MAF is an international Christian organisation whose mission is to fly light aircraft, and to use other technologies to bring help, hope and healing to people in some of the world’s poorest communities. Every four minutes an MAF plane is taking off or landing somewhere in the world to assist missions, churches, aid and development agencies, and other local groups to transform lives and share the love of God.
FROM THE CEO
A new year brings new life as we reflect on the past year. Looking back at 2020, it is all too easy to focus on its negative aspects. Sadly, much of last year was dominated by the huge disruption the coronavirus has caused and the many lives that have been lost to it. But, at the start of the year, Jesus knew how 2020 would look for

each of us. He knew how we would struggle, what we needed during such a testing time, and what we need today. And He knew how He would provide.
clear hand of blessing. Finally, you will read an inspiring story of peace encouraging us to trust God, even when we might not understand how He is at work.
Without your faithful support over last year and your ongoing encouragement and generosity, we would not have been able to continue spreading the Gospel of Christ to the ends of the earth. Your generosity in prayers and giving enables us to make sure that no community, big or small, no matter how isolated, is forgotten.
With the new year finally here, we are encouraged by these stories to celebrate the new life that we hope to experience and to trust God in all things, despite difficulties and the unknown. We hope you too are encouraged in this way.
In this year’s first edition, we look forward to and celebrate the new life that comes with a new year. You will read about the lives of two babies who needed to be urgently taken to hospital, while celebrating the unity of different Christians to make this happen.
We wait in prayerful anticipation for what lies ahead as we live out an attitude of thankfulness for all that God has provided – especially you, our supportive MAF Family. Let us continue this year with a spirit of encouragement and courage, waiting with positive expectancy for what the future will bring. Maxine Holman CEO of MAF SA

LIVES IN THE BALANCE STORY BY JENNY DAVIE, PHOTOS BY EDDIE AND RACHEL ANDERSEN AND DANIEL LOEWEN-RUDGERS
On Friday 29 May, 2020, MAF pilot Daniel Loewen-Rudgers flew a medevac flight for two babies with heart conditions. The flight enabled the babies to reach the hospital in time, but it was the actions of many Christians working together that allowed God’s purposes to prevail. “You go to bed knowing you actually touched a life,” exclaims MAF Kenya’s Operations Manager Caleb Likhanga from his office in Nairobi. Hundreds of miles to the north in Dukana, Missionary Eddie Andersen agrees. “It was so beautiful. Just seeing all these Christians working together — everyone has given their love to these beautiful babies and their families. Thank you so much,” Eddie says warmly. “It was awesome to have the two missions working together seamlessly as we dealt with patients on the ground. They flew directly to Kijabe Hospital and the mission doctors met them on the airstrip and took them directly into care.”
THE ARID NORTH “Both children were in a critical condition,” continues Eddie. “One was the baby son of a church member — the other patient, a baby of a destitute woman from Dukana. Without that flight from Dukana to a major facility with a heart unit like Kijabe Hospital, they would certainly have died within days.” Eddie and his wife Rachel have been working in Dukana with Africa Inland Church for the past 11 years, ministering to first generation Christians from the Gabra people. In addition to the church, they run a radio station and a vehicle workshop. Their home there in the arid north is as far from advanced hospital care as you can get. It’s a three-day drive to the capital Nairobi

When she arrived at the hut, it was safe to land. “The approach Rachel saw that the baby looked paler was fine,” Daniel continues. “We than she had expected. Checking the were able to land safely, and I simply baby’s vital signs, she saw its oxygen taxied up to the airstrip where two levels were dropping quickly.

What a joy and privilege it is to live knowing that the Father has new things to speak to us each day. 2020 saw the increase in people watching the news or YouTube clips, listening to podcasts, sermons or radio stations. More people spent more time on social media or other online platforms than ever before. Old or young, numbers of people flocked to hear something that would make them feel in control. Information is a great gift to us. We have extensive access to new sermons, worship sessions, prayer meetings and Bible studies from Christian communities around the world. All these resources can be edifying in such wonderful ways. This “secondhand” knowledge from online resources is powerful; time spent alone in the secret place with the Lord is vital. Our Father has the perfect information, in the perfect quantity for each individual. He delivers it to us in such unique and specific ways. His gifts, His mercies, His wisdom, His knowledge, His words are new and perfectly packaged for each person, every single day. When He speaks, the fruit is good and abundant. We never leave His presence feeling fearful or hopeless. It would be such a terrible shame if during this precious time that we have, we are distracted from what God is saying and doing. His voice is the only voice that carries perfect truth and it’s the only voice that can lead us into hope. We cannot gain control that 2020 made us feel we lacked by researching and researching. The only steady foundation that will keep us stable is Jesus. We’ve never truly had the steering wheel. Only Jesus is in control. And the most incredible news, the news that should be playing through our minds and hearts in times when fear wants to take hold, is that He has given us all authority. Authority is different to control. I’m currently in my eighth month of pregnancy and my husband and I cannot stop talking about how grateful we are for this precious reward. The new life growing each minute is a great reminder of the hopeful future God has for each of us. There are many new gifts that the Father has for the body of Christ. In 2021, let us firmly fix our eyes and ears on our only truth, hope and peace, Jesus Christ, and let Him lead us to the new journeys He has ordained for us to walk through, for His glory and His purposes.

GOD IS IN IT: A NEW YEAR’S EVE MEDEVAC
STORY AND PHOTOS BY PHILIPP SUTTER
The last MAF aircraft in the air on New Year’s Eve, 31 December 2020, was P2-MAH with Philipp Sutter in the captain’s seat and Joseph Tua as a second pilot on the right-hand seat. Philipp shares some unexpected and unplanned events from this day: On the ground in Mougulu, just before taking off, we received a v2track message, asking if we had time and enough fuel to pick up a sick patient from Wawoi Falls to take him to Kiunga. Wawoi Falls is a remote village, located in the southern lowlands of Papua New Guinea (PNG) in the middle of the jungle, but next to the gigantic waterfall of the Wawoi River that originates at Mt. Bosavi (8 100 ft) and flows to the Gulf of Papua. The distance from Mougulu to Wawoi Falls is about 40 nautical miles, but the flight path was in the opposite direction we intended to fly. We discussed it and decided that we could, since we had taken an extra 60 minutes’ worth of fuel out of Mount Hagen due to weather, as we are in the rainy season currently. For this diversion, we would use 20 minutes’ worth of fuel each way, leaving us with 20 minutes over minimum fuel at our destination in Kiunga.
the harness system secured him for the flight. The father would hold his leg up as this caused the least amount of pain for Mark. In Wawoi Falls we decided to takeoff from runway 31, but as we lined up, there were lots of clouds and rain on our departure track. We taxied back for a departure from runway 13 instead and as we came to the line-up position, we saw our temperature gun, that we use for COVID-19 precaution procedures, lying on the ground. We had put it on the wing strut but had forgotten to take it with us. Joseph manned the breaks, and we feathered the prop, as I went out to grab it – I guess God just put the rain and clouds in our departure route, so that we had to come back and find the temperature gun. As we flew towards Suabi to pick up some other sick patients, the weather there was very bad with lots of rain and clouds all the way down to the trees. We were unable to land and had to fly straight to Kiunga.
Via HF radio we advised Lakis, our base manager in Kiunga, to call the ambulance. As we landed, a Toyota Landcruiser approached and with the base’s scoop stretcher, we lifted Mark off the airplane and straight into the Having received a report of good “ambulance.” weather from Kiunga, we decided to do the extra leg.
