You’re Invited to the 2025 President’s Gathering!

We would be honored to have you join us for a meaningful and unforgettable experience at the 2025 President’s Gathering.
 
This special event is designed to give friends and ministry partners of MAF an inside look at how your partnership is making a global impact.
 
Together, we’ll hear powerful stories from the field, meet the people behind the ministry, and gain a deeper understanding of how MAF is serving together to bring help, hope, and healing through aviation. I believe you will find encouragement and renewed vision in the shared stories of transformation and impact. 
 
This is a unique opportunity to experience MAF’s global operations firsthand, connect with like-minded believers, and celebrate the incredible things God is doing through this ministry—thanks to your faithful support.
 
Thank you for prayerfully considering this invitation. We would be honored to have you join us for the 2025 MAF President’s Gathering. May God bless you abundantly as you reflect on this opportunity to connect, be inspired, and help shape the future of our shared mission.
