join the mission
Samaritan Aviation exists to bridge this gap in Papua New Guinea—turning three-day canoe trips to the hospital into one-hour lifesaving flights, delivering medical supplies, medication, and disaster relief, all while sharing the love of Jesus. Whether responding to machete wounds, malaria, or childbirth emergencies, we bring hope to the hopeless, ensuring no one is too far to receive help.

WHAT CHURCH PARTNERS
ARE SAYING
Why Partner with
Samaritan Aviation?
As a church, you are called to make a difference in the world and to share the good news of Jesus. Samaritan Aviation offers your church a unique opportunity to do both in a powerful and tangible way.
We are the only Christian mission aviation organization of our kind in Papua New Guinea, serving hundreds of thousands of people who are otherwise cut off from access to critical medical care. Through a partnership with Samaritan Aviation, your church can have a direct and lasting impact on the unreached.
FREE FLIGHTS, FREE GRACE
Every emergency flight we provide is completely free. No cost. No catch. In a moment of crisis, that kind of mercy gets people’s attention. It shows them the heart of the gospel: we cannot earn salvation, and we do not have to. Just as these patients receive a free flight they could never afford, they also hear about the free grace offered through Jesus Christ they could never earn. Your church can help deliver both.
MEETING PHYSICAL NEEDS
We do not just fly patients to medical care. We meet them in their greatest time of need with practical help that matters right now. We pick them up when they are sick, injured, in labor, or fighting for life. We also deliver critical medical supplies—malaria treatment, antibiotics, birthing kits—to remote clinics where these resources are often out of reach. Then we care for each patient with the basic items they need most: a blanket, shoes, food, and whatever else is needed along the way. Your partnership helps us bring real relief to real people when every minute matters.
MEETING SPIRITUAL NEEDS
Every patient we fly in is someone we care for spiritually, not just medically. We pray for them, visit them in the hospital, share the gospel, and teach the Bible story from Creation to Christ using the King of Glory curriculum in their own language. Before they return home, we give them an audio Bible loaded with the curriculum and Scripture in their language so they can keep hearing God’s Word in their village. Your church is not just helping save lives. You are helping make disciples.
AVIATION AND THE CHURCH
We also serve the Church and strengthen its reach in some of the most remote places on earth. We fly missionaries, Bible translators, and church planters into isolated villages where the Gospel is still going out for the first time. We also deliver the supplies they need to stay—food, ministry resources, and equipment for long-term work. In moments of crisis, we provide emergency flights for both missionaries and villagers, caring for the body while pointing to Christ. Through ongoing relationships with local churches, pastor training, and tools like audio Bibles, we are helping build a strong, lasting Gospel presence. Your church becomes part of that mission—reaching places that would otherwise remain out of reach.
