Providing Safe Passage Amid Instability

MAF transports passengers due to war
Democratic Republic of the Congo — November 2020 Update

As a Flight Crew Member, you are helping provide safe passage for local pastors and others who are trying to bypass unsafe areas.

While several of our overseas programs saw a decrease in flights due to COVID-19 restrictions, in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), flights continued uninterrupted. Our team here has had five times more passengers due to war and instability in the north, which is making passage by road too dangerous. That means that each flight is a potential lifesaver for those on board.

One of those flights was for a Congolese pastor who was moving from Bunia to Banda. Our staff managed to fit all the pastor’s belongings into a Cessna Caravan—huge bags of clothing, cooking equipment, mattresses, jugs of oil, a bike.

Our east DRC staff are excited to partner with the local church to help send these Congolese missionaries to reach their own people. They know the language and the nuances of the culture, making them better equipped for the task. MAF enables them to bridge the vast expanses of the forest, lakes, and rivers that impede normal outreach efforts here—while avoiding dangerous rebel groups on the road. That means, with your help, the gospel is reaching further with each flight.

This is just a sample of the potentially lifesaving and life-changing flights you are making possible as a member of the Flight Crew. Your generosity is making a difference in the DRC and around the world. Thank you!
