MAF – Mission Aviation Fellowship

MAF Quilt- Kindly donated by the Quilting GroupMAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship)is an international Christian aviation organisation serving around 26 developing countries to reach people living in some of the world’s most isolated communities.

Operating 135 light aircraft, MAF flies into 1,700 remote destinations, transporting essential medical care, food and water supplies, relief teams and church workers enabling physical and spiritual care to reach countless thousands of people cut off due to formidable geographical barriers, natural disasters and political unrest.

Each flight carries help and hope to men, women and children for whom flying is not a luxury but a lifeline. Transforming lives through enabling access, MAF is flying for life.

In support of this charity the Sunday Club  Group are still collecting postcards, used and unused.  MAF collects these and they are resold to collectors.

Updated News…. July 2019

The Summer Edition of MAF magazine 2019 highlights the work being done in Papua New Guinea and the aircrafts continuing to serve the refugees in places like Uganda.  In 2018 MAF carried out more than 157,000 passengers and 6,000 tonnes of freight delivered.  Please remember this organisation in your prayers.

We continue to have MAF Postcard Collection boxes in both Strathtay and Logierait Church should anyone wish to donate their postcards.

It does not matter how old or modern the cards are, it is the picture on them that makes them collectable.  They are interested in all types.  If you would rather not have your address shared on the cards then draw through each line with a black pen.  We hope this will be a simple on going activity that the Church can support.
