Mission

To develop, train, and equip pilots for missionary service in remote parts of the world; to encourage and serve missionaries and Bible camps.

990 for the year ended December 31, 2024

Program accomplishments

  • Flight training developed, trained and equipped 15 students who are preparing for serving in Christian ministry-- often in remote areas around the world. Summer Camp served 18 campers to introduce them to missionary aviation. MATA's advanced Alaska summer and winter training served 6 students, 2 camps, 8 villages and 120 campers where there are no roads between villages and limited access to remote areas. Without aviation transportation, local Alaskan camp attendees would not be able to attend camp. The Alaska trips also allowed MATA staff to serve several other mission agencies with aircraft maintenance help, speaking, and encouragement. We also sent 2 staff members to a mission in Papua New Guinea to assist with aircraft maintenance. We were the county collection site for the Operation Christmas Child ministry. We helped position equipment to remote ministries. We hosted about 100 kids to introduce them to STEM programs. We also introduced over 200 people to mission aviation at our tri-annual Mission Aviation Awareness Day
