MAF Ministries

Serving Worldwide

Day by day, throughout Africa, Asia, Eurasia, and Latin America, people are enjoying healthier, more spiritually complete lives due to the prayers and generosity of people like you.

Thousands worldwide are enjoying more fulfilling lives...... Local pastors are often just a 40-minute flight from ministering in neighboring villages... Third-world victims of natural disasters receive adequate medical supplies, treatment, and food relief within hours or days... And community water wells are being dug, providing safe drinking water for thousands.

If MAF were not uplifted by its supporters to be such a strong instrument of the Christian community... those same local pastors might walk for six days to reach their neighbors to minister to them... The disastrous results of floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes would be much more prolonged and magnified... And safe, clean drinking water might be miles away from people's homes.

Mission Aviation Fellowship focuses on five specific areas of activity in reaching out to help those in need:

  • Evangelism and Church Support: Connecting missionaries and local pastors with unreached people, transporting national church workers to isolated villages, and theological eduction by extension.
  • Community Development: Supplying and transporting Christian staff and supplies for health and community improvement projects, village enhancements such as water wells, and small MAF-built hydroelectric plants.
  • Medical Assistance: Providing medical emergency evacuations, transporting medicines and health workers to the sick and injured.
  • Crisis Relief: Transporting food for the hungry, and critical relief supplies and agency personnel to disaster areas.
  • National Training: Educating pilots, mechanics, avionics technicians, radio and electronics specialists, and administrative and support personnel.

Tools We Use

MAF Aviation services connect people where roads don't exist
  • Aviation: Flying supplies, food, people, livestock, and other cargo aids greatly in the development of communities.
  • Information Technology: Establishing and maintaining radio, email, and other communications tools in remote areas. These have become essential tools for thousands of local humanitarian and mission workers.
  • Learning Technologies: Responding to the needs of the emerging church by providing vision, leadership and the necessary technology for training leaders through Distance Education and digital Bible resources. MAF-LT provides training and consulting as well as leadership in collaborative LT projects.
  • Other Tools: Logistics services for managing materials and resources, estate planning for responsible Christian stewardship, and other valuable services.

Organizations Served

MAF services provide a working backbone for hundreds of humanitarian, missionary, and other organizations worldwide. In fact, without our daily support, many valuable international groups would simply cease to exist.

Here is just one example of how Mission Aviation Fellowship works in harmony with like-minded organizations to meet the overwhelming needs of people worldwide:

"I recall many times flying out of Addis Ababa to refugee camps that World Vision sponsored in Ethiopia. I recall drops of food over Laos. We are indebted to Mission Aviation Fellowship. You have been a supporting agency. Above everything else, you are a treasured servant of the Lord. You represent corporate servant leadership and for this I am very, very grateful."

- Dr. Ted Engstrom, President Emeritus, World Vision
