Our Passion

We desire to serve Christ wherever He wants us to be.  We feel that God is calling us to join Him in His good work over seas through missionary aviation. 

There are so many people who live in extreme poverty with very little medical attention or schooling available.  Many of these people groups live deep in jungles or far from any infrastructure at all and the only way to reach them or for them to reach medical attention is to travel for days by foot and/or canoe.

It has been said that missionary aviation is like the cardiovascular system of remote missions, which is a pretty good analogy.  Much as your vessels carry red blood cells necessary for sustaining and giving life and white blood cells necessary for fighting off infection and repairing our bodies, missionary aviation brings essential supplies and personnel for sustaining life and repairing bodies as well as God's eternal life to dead souls.

We can show God's mercy and healing to people by flying in much needed medical supplies and doctors or transporting the injured or severely ill to medical attention.

We can show God's compassion and kindness to people by flying in relief workers, supplies and food to areas torn by natural disaster.

We can help bring God's voice to lost people by transporting Bible translators into remote areas with peoples who do not have a written language that would otherwise be unreachable or take weeks by foot or canoe. 



 
  Our Family

Tony and Sheea have been married for six years and have two great children, Rebecca (5) and Shane(4). 

Shane is an athletic, gregarious and energetic boy.  If it can be thrown, kicked or swung at, he wants to do it. 

Rebecca is our princess; she enjoys all things girly and beautiful and is our resident artist.  She enjoys drawing, painting, gluing and any other art or craft she can get her hands on.

  Our Background

I (Tony) grew up in Central America from the age of three to sixteen as his parents were missionaries.  I have always had a passion for flying and specifically missionary aviation. 

It became clear that God intended me to wait in that service while He worked in my life, so after two years of Bible college I began a career in information technology at Texas Instrument's and after that took a position at Nortel Networks as a "Web and Infrastructure Architect" where I have been working for eight years (aka "high end computer stuff" for the non-nerds).

Sheea grew up in New England and lived there most of her life.  Despite a very hard childhood and subsequent life God reached out to her and saved her from a myriad of otherwise breaking and even deadly situations.

Sheea cares deeply for people and has a servant's heart, making every effort to think of details that will make people feel comfortable and cared for.

In 2007 Sheea surprised Tony with a flight in an AT-6 "Texan" (a WWII era fighter trainer).  God used that experience as a catalyst for Tony to begin thinking about, and being open to, the possibility of pursuing missionary aviation again.

Sheea and I have learned that we are never safer than when we are where God wants us to be, when He wants you to be there, doing what He wants us to do.
