Hello Friends!

We are Brady and Heather Fehr! We have been serving as full-time missionaries for the last 5+ years with Youth with a Mission in Pittsburgh, PA. Last year, after much prayer and consideration, I (Brady) decided to pursue the long term call I believe has been put on my life to be a missionary pilot! Flying has been an interest and a passion I’ve wanted to pursue for years, but reluctantly put on the back burner as I served around the world with YWAM missions teams! It got brought back up last year, and with the support of my beautiful wife, I successfully completed Phase 1 of my flight training, the Private Pilots License. This was a huge accomplishment and step towards the long term mission field, but is just the beginning! Phase 2 is next, my Instrument Rating. This entails learning the ins and outs of flying in bad weather, or cloudy days, one of the most vital portions of training!

By God’s grace, We were fully funded for phase 1 and carry no debt into phase 2! I will likely be training for another 2-3 years, however that is strictly dependent on time and available funds! You may be wondering what the missionary aviation world is all about, so allow me to share some of my vision! Missionary pilots are often the only lifeline to a village or an overseas missionary. Whether medical evacuations, delivering supplies or transporting people, the missionary pilot is a vital role that needs to be filled in many countries around the world! I’m excited to serve other missionaries, meet the needs of remote villages and transport goods and services to otherwise unreachable places!

Heather, my wife, continues to serve full time as a missionary to refugee families and children in and around the city of Pittsburgh! She desires to use her gifting to serve in whatever capacity the Lord opens up for her, but as for right now she is the best kids ministry leader I know! Every Saturday she leads a kids program that reaches out to immigrant families from around the world. This program, that usually has 50 regular attendees, also opens the door for relationships with their families and opportunities to meet otherwise unknown needs in the community. She has nearly completed an English teaching course called TESOL and intends on using it locally and in the future, wherever the journey takes us! She is not only a supporter to me, but an active participant in many different ministries and intends to continue to use her gifting for ministry alongside me, wherever we end up! As for right now, we are in Pittsburgh where Heather is full time with YWAM Pittsburgh and I lead a weekly youth group and continue my flight training process!

We have 3 options on this site, a general fund , travel fund and a flight training fund. The general fund is for our daily, weekly and monthly needs as well as bigger needs such as a second car, which is one that we are in need of right now! The flight training fund is just that, a fund that goes towards the costs involved in pursuing missionary aviation! This would also include expenses that come with Heathers current and future training! Finally, the travel fund is for outreach opportunities, and travel expenses incorporated with our ministries and training. We will need much more the $10,000 over the next few years, but that is our starting point for this year end fundraiser!

Thank you for taking the time to support not only what I am pursuing, but the wonderful ministry my wife is doing as well!
