Support Mission Support Network

There are many ways you can support Mission Support Network.

1. Prayer Support

This is obviously the one we need the most.  As well as your personal prayer time, one suggestion would be to bring Mission Support Network to your prayer group or church study group for prayer.  By being on our email newsletter list, you will be kept up to date as to what our current needs are.

Continual needs for prayer:

  1. Pilots- always need lots of prayer cover as they are constantly putting themselves at risk flying over jungle terrain where there are no landing places if equipment fails.  Also the weather and flying conditions in equatorial mountainous country is some of the most challenging flying in the world.
  2. Volunteer staff - From the ground staff at base to the national volunteer missionary nurses and teachers, they all need your prayers as often they are on the front lines where the Devil works the hardest to resist God's work.
  3. Government working relations - always a challenge with required licenses and paperwork.

2. Financial Support

Mission work is a never ending black hole when it comes to finances.  While Mission Support Network is able to cover much of its operating expenses through charter services, there is so much that is needed beyond that.  Here is a short list of where your donations may go.

  1. Airplane costs - There is much need for more planes and bases in Papua New Guinea and neighboring island countries.  The need is staggering and we hope to march forward as God supplies the resources.
  2. Base costs - Hangars, tooling, housing and more
  3. Communication costs - In a country where communications are about 50 years behind in many ways but right up to date in others, the cost of establishing a communications network that allows us to stay in contact with supporters and with the remote projects is huge.
  4. Volunteer stipends and travel costs - Moving the national volunteers around to their projects as well as the housing needed for volunteers at the base can be a considerable expense
  5. Medical Evacuations when the person in need has no funds to pay for their travel.
  6. Necessary travel to carry on business for the organization.  It will be necessary at times to bring in maintenance personnel for the aircraft as well as travel to government headquarters to handle business and travel costs in PNG are high.

 

One Time Donations:

When God impresses and enables you to send a gift for a one time donation, there are several ways this can be done. For those in the U.S. who would like to receive credit for tax purposes, Hope On Wings Foundation has agreed to handle donations for Mission Support Network.

  • Send your check made payable to
    Hope On Wings Foundation
    104 N College Avenue
    College Place, WA  99324
  • Give online using credit or debit card (Click on button)
  •  Other methods will be added here in the future

Monthly Donations:

For many of you, the easiest way to make a BIG difference is to send a small amount each month.  The power of $15 or $25 multiplied by hundreds and thousands reminds me of the huge ant hills I have seen.  For most this would only mean giving up one night out each month. It wouldn't even be missed.

Again, this can be done by check but it is much easier for all if it is set up to be automatic.  Currently you can set up a subscription through Paypal which is very simple to set up and does not cost you anything to have an account.  By just clicking on one of the options below and following through the process, you will automatically have a Paypal account that can be associated with either a credit card or bank account.  I have used Paypal for 10 years and found it to be very safe and easy.

$15.00 per month

 

$25.00 per month

 

$50.00 per month

 
Until we have our base set up in Vanimo, it is best to use Hope On Wings Foundation for donations.  Mission Support Network is being set up as a non-profit association in Papua New Guinea and donations can be sent directly there once we have our mailing address posted here.  However, if you need tax credit in U.S., you will want to send through Hope On Wings Foundation.
