Happy 60th Anniversary to MAF in Chad!💃💃💃

Today, we look back and praise God for what He has done in the lives of the Chadian people over the last 60 years, and we look forward to many more years of impact.
We are aware that challenges still lie ahead and the task remains great. But we raise a hallelujah for 60 years of bringing help, hope and healing to the isolated people of Chad.
“I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.” ~ Psalm 77:11 🙏

For Pastor Beasnael Sem Miantoloum and his team serving in Chad, reaching remote communities is not easy. Some journeys that take MAF less than an hour by air can take a week travelling by road.
Recently, through MAF flights, pastor Sem and his teams were able to travel to Adré where they train church leaders, provide Bibles and equip them to serve others, including Sudanese refugees who have fled the violence in Darfur.
The pastor told us about refugees who have responded to the message of Christ, been baptised and now meet together in prayer groups. For him, being able to reach these communities is an opportunity to show the love of Christ to people who have experienced unimaginable loss.
The need is enormous. Churches are asking for more training. People are asking for more Bibles. And there are still many communities that are difficult to reach.

When Osam Osman Idriss Sulieman developed serious heart problems, he urgently needed specialised medical care.

But there was a major problem: He was working in a troubled part of Sudan, and the nearest suitable care was in Nairobi, Kenya.

In seeking medical care, Osam had already travelled by car for ten hours into Chad.
Travelling another 13 hours by road from Adré to N’Djamena was deemed too risky for his condition. Instead, MAF was able to fly him to the Chadian capital in just three hours, helping him continue a medical evacuation that crossed international borders.

Working hand in hand with AMREF Flying Doctors, MAF provided an essential link in a medical evacuation that enabled a humanitarian worker to reach urgent treatment.

We're grateful to be a part of one small rescue mission and the team prays for the continuity of Osam’s work in Sudan.

Without maintenance, we can't keep our planes flying. ✈️
Since last week, our team has been doing maintenance on our caravan. Soon it'll be ready to bring help, hope and healing to the isolated communities of Chad.

After delivering Bibles for our partner, Églises Évangéliques au Tchad, to Abéché at the beginning of this week, pilot Joost Gerritsen arrived back in N'Djamena just on time before a powerful storm.

As we continue to celebrate 60 years of MAF Chad , we revisit a pivotal moment in 1985.
Following poor rainfall in the 1980s and failing rice crops, a famine was about to engulf the people of Chad.
Thousands of people had left their homes in search of food. Unless urgent action was taken, 30,000 villagers who MAF served would die of starvation: https://f.mtr.cool/drqofjsndx

MAF flies humanitarian workers to the Lake Chad region to provide essential assistance to host communities and internally displaced persons, including non-food items, hygiene kits, emergency shelters, latrines, and water boreholes.
This region is one of the most dangerous spots in Chad, ravaged by Boko Haram. Although the extremist group was started in northern Nigeria, Boko Haram has expanded into Lake Chad region, spanning northeastern Nigeria, northern Cameroon, Chad, and southeastern Niger leading to the displacement and deaths of many people.
Families have been forced to flee their homes, and access to schools, healthcare, and food has become more difficult.
Right now, MAF is the only air transportation to the Lake Chad region. The journey by road is very uncertain as it poses security threats. Travelling with MAF significantly facilitates their work by speeding up the deployment of staff to operational areas. This reduces exposure to security risks on the road and lightens the logistical burden of moving between locations.
