We are deeply saddened to share that Chris Coffee, one of our pilots, tragically passed away in a road accident in Arnhem Land on Wednesday morning. Chris, 36, was travelling to Gove Airport when his vehicle was involved in a head-on collision.

Chris joined our Arnhem Land team in May 2023 and served as Deputy Director as well as flying. He leaves behind his wife, Alison, and their three young children.

Chris had a deep passion to serve the people in Arnhem Land and to share Jesus’ love with them. This loss is deeply felt by the Arnhem Land team and the global MAF family. We find comfort in knowing that Chris lived a life of service and faith. May God bring peace and strength to all who are mourning.

Please pray for Chris’s family, our team, and all affected by this tragedy. 

All donations will be passed on to the Coffee family.
