We are pleased to announce our 2010 speaker: Russ Stendal

Russ is a micro-aviator in Colombia, South America who was taken hostage by terrorists for 142 days in the 1980's.  He has since returned to bring the Good News to those who were his captors.  He has formed a mission agency called Colombia Para Cristo and also belongs to a group of missions leaders and indigenous pastors who serve in remote areas of Colombia.

Russ will be speaking about his personal testimony and the mission of his ministry throughout the Aviation Fair.  You won't want to miss his amazing story!

MICRO-AVIATORS:  Who are they?

This year’s Aviation Fair theme is focused on micro-aviators. These men and women are missionaries who are part-time pilots or small operators who fly themselves and others to their places of ministry. They are not a part of a larger network of pilots and may only have one plane to their name. They are often the hidden pilots of missions.

Join us in recognizing these pilots who are working behind the scenes to further the Gospel of Christ. During the weekend, you’ll be able to hear from micro-aviators and watch videos about their ministry.
