BETTY GREENE – Flying High

In nineteen forty-one, a tall
young woman, Betty Greene,
became a pilot – something that
had been her childhood dream.

She’d tried to study nursing –
a wonderful career –
but Betty longed instead to fly
high through the atmosphere.

Betty Greene (1920-1997) always dreamed of combining her love of flying with her love for Christ. After her heroic service during World War II, Betty joined other pilots to form Missionary Aviation Fellowship (MAF). When missionaries needed supplies or transportation, Betty’s strong faith and skillful flying through deserts and jungles helped them serve God all around the world.
