Road in Southern  Sudan
The "best road" in Southern
Sudan seen from the air

Roads are almost non-existent in the remote areas of southern Sudan where we serve, and even the roads that are there become impassable during the long rainy season.

We rely heavily on air service provided by our partner AIMAIR. As the need for transportation increases, their fleet is unable to meet the demand. So the SIM team purchased a Cessna 206G in the U.S., then boxed it in pieces and sent it to Kenya by ship, where it will be reassembled and added to the fleet. Soon an SIM pilot, Nate Killoren, will join the flight staff.

Owning our own plane and leasing it to AIMAIR will give the SIM workers guaranteed access to flights when and where they need them. This will be a tremendous blessing because the ability to fly missionaries and supplies into remote regions in Southern Sudan is critical to our missionaries' safety and the progress of the Rebuilding Southern Sudan: Church and Nation program.
