This Christmas, gift someone a MAF Alumni Book Pack:
1. Aero Grace by Ron Watts
Since the earliest days of aviation, Australians have been pace-setters in the use of aircraft to reduce the time required to travel from place to place. One of the earliest groups to use planes to speed up travel times were the pioneering missionaries and pastors seeking to reach isolated communities.
Former Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) pilot and author, Ron Watts, who has flown in several MAF programs, is launching a new book “Aero Grace”. Aero Grace unveils the rich history of mission aviation in Australia from the 1920s to the present day.
2. Many Adventures Followed by Roger Young
Tropical jungle, joys, trials, fears, frustrations, humour, horror, forced landings, happy landings, sickness, health, blessings, sadness.
Live through them all in the pioneering experiences of Roger Young recorded in Many Adventures Followed. The missionary pilot vividly portrays what it was really like in the early years of MAF’s service amid the mountaintops and deep valleys of Papua New Guinea.
With two major cancer operations by the age of 35, and given a 5% chance of surviving for two years, it could have been the end for Roger. But he later returned to serve as Acting Chief Pilot.
Rejoice at the many difficult challenges overcome. Praise God for answered prayer.
3, Eyes Turned Skyward by Max Meyers
Max Meyers shares exciting glimpses of his thirty seven years with MAF in Eyes Turned Skyward. This is storytelling at its best. Join an impossible rescue on the wind-lashed ocean, airlift a snakebite victim out of the equatorial wilderness, float a crash-landed plane down the rapids of a jungle river.
These remarkable true stories will grip your imagination, stir your heart and strengthen your faith in the God who fills the whole earth with His power and love.
Cost: AUD50 (this includes postage within Australia only).
