Testimonials
- "I believe strongly in MAF's ministry. If I knew at 18 what I know now, I would have been a missionary pilot!"
Clyde Ericson
Retired Captain, United Airlines
"I am happy to serve with so many heroes of the faith - those in missions. They are making a bold impact on the progress of the gospel. This ministry impresses me and I want to support the cause in any way I can. I truly connect with the MAF ministry and feel passionate about seeing God’s work done through it."
Dan Reid
Instructor Pilot, United States Air Force
Trussville, AL 
"One of the best emails I ever sent was to inquire about the MAF-Advocate Wing. It began the first step to becoming an official part of MAF. I've felt a part of MAF for decades as MAF flew my dad in Brazil and I have supported MAF through prayer and finances through the years. But now is even more special as I am officially a member of the MAF team. A team making a difference ... an eternal difference."
Lew Cass
Longview, TX 
"Being an advocate is the best thing that has ever happened in my life. I feel that God is using me in ways I never would have dreamed of. For me it is a great thrill to serve Him this way. God has taken my passion for missions and airplanes, and has used it for His glory."
Earl Beasley
Pleasant Prairie, WI 
"As an MAF alumni I see this as a great way to remain involved with missions in general and MAF specifically. It is a good way to live out my heart for foreign missions in the US and in a secular role."
Paul Slaughter
Estherville, IA 
"I love being a part of MAF and being able to support all that it does. I would have probably been working overseas for MAF if I had come to know the Lord earlier. Even now though, I am able to play a significant part in the Lord's work through MAF by being an Advocate. Very gratifying!"
Bruce Earley
United Airlines Captain 
"Being on the MAF-Advocate Wing team is an opportunity to show my support and deep appreciation for its ministry. It gives me a platform to promote the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ. It's a blessing and an honor to be associated with an organization like MAF with a long history of integrity."
Steve Chapman
Musician/Author 
"Being a Ministry Advocate with MAF means that I can be a part of a specialized ministry to the often forgotten, most remote, lost people of the world for whom God "gave His only begotten Son". Although I have no expertise or technical abilities in the realm of aviation, my heart for missions commands me to be involved. I can't believe just how exciting and FUN it has been to see God working."

Retired, US Postal Service
