RUSSIA

Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) has been working in Russia since the early 1990s. Due to inaccessible cities and villages across eleven time zones expansion has been difficult, despite the need. However, MAF is now expanding into Siberia. MAF’s Dave Bochman says, “Every time we’ve looked and every place we’ve looked it just seemed that God wasn’t opening the door, but then this past year God raised up a national pilot with a burden for missionary aviation. And the area that the Lord has placed on all of our hearts is Krasnoyarsk in central Siberia.” Bochman says the new program is completely Russian. (Mission Network News)
