Life Flights
Our Life Flight operations in Papua New Guinea began in March of 2010. Since then close to 90 lives have been saved in the East Sepik Region of the nation. Mothers in distress, snake bites, infections, and broken bones are just a few of the emergency situations we deal with on a regular basis. What was a journey of three to five days over rough jungle terrain and through long waterways has been forever changed. Now that trip is a forty-five minute flight straight to the team in Wewak and access to the Wewak Boram hospital.
Our Life Flights partner with medical centers across the region and connect patients with hospital support throughout their stay. We have a full-time pilot, a full-time staff pastor and a group of caring volunteers who team up to follow a patient from a moment of crisis through to returning to their village.
Explore our stories of life and hope!
