Dear friends,
Hello!
When I was 8 years old, part of my homeschooling curriculum was a book titled "God Speaks Numanggang." This is a story about a missionary family in Papua New Guinea who created the written Numanggang language, as there wasn't one. Then, they translated the bible into Numanggang. As my mom was reading this story to my siblings and I, the Lord spoke to me and said; "This is my plan for you." So, at 8 years old, God called me to missions.
Now, many years and many missionary books later I'm pursuing that calling.
If you've been following along, you know I began my missionary training with YWAM Tyler, in the fall of 2022. At the time, YWAM Tyler was part of YWAM International/University of the Nations, but they are now an independent ministry.
You can read more about my extended training in previous posts and on my About page.

Now, it's time to go!
In January, or as soon as financially possible, I will be going into full-time missions with YWAM Tyler for the next two years. I will be based in Texas, living and serving at YWAM Tyler.
Mercy Works
During missionary training, I chose to take my elective with Mercy Works, YWAM Tyler's rescue and relief department. This is the specific area of missions I feel led to serve in.
Mercy Works' current missionary focus is on Africa, where they are involved in digging water wells in Tanzania and holding free medical clinics in Tanzania and Mali. After joining Mercy Works, I'll be partnering with them in their mission to bring hope and help to hurting people all over the globe.
"And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, 'Whom will I send, and who will go for us?' Then I said, Here I am! Send Me." Isaiah 6:8
Get involved!
So here's where you come in! Although I will be a missionary affiliated with YWAM Tyler, I am responsible for all of my personal expenses. I would like to invite you to become a missions partner. Your financial support will help fund further missionary training, mission outreaches and assignments I'm participating in, as well as cover my day-to-day expenses as a missionary.
I know you have been praying for me. Will you also consider partnering with me financially?
