about us
Dear Friends of Mission Air Service...
Many of you have asked how we began our work. I believe the Lord has called me to be a Disaster Relief Consultant. I first felt God’s calling to this work when I was 12 years old during a missionary conference at my local church in Carbondale, Illinois. I had already experienced disaster in my own life. My family’s home burned to the ground when I was six years old, and my father was killed in a work-related accident when I was ten. Friends from our church surrounded us with both physical and spiritual help that allowed us to survive these disasters. I believe God allowed me to experience these heartaches so that I would be more sensitive to the tragedies in the lives of others here and around the world.
Aubrey R. Huskey
