From the Hangar - Episode 22 with Ryan and Annabel Koher

On this episode of From the Hangar, Ryan and Annabel Koher sit down with host Lem Malabuyo and talk about their lives as MAF missionaries. Ryan serves an MAF pilot in the Mozambique program, but experienced a very difficult situation two and a half years ago. Ryan was arrested and imprisoned under accusations of supporting insurgent activity, spending four months in prison before being released and eventually exonerated.

Ryan and Annabel and their children have been in the U.S. since September 2023, waiting for the day they can re-enter Mozambique and joyfully serve people in need. We hope that their story of faith, hope, and forgiveness inspires you in your own walk with Jesus.
