Ana and Aaron served in full-time ministry with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, for over 20 years specializing in developing leaders, teaching, discipling the nations, and helping people all over the world step into their God-given identity and purpose.  During their time in YWAM, they pioneered a family ministry that reached families and children in crisis. Passionate about adoption, Ana and Aaron have adopted two beautiful children. Because of their love for adoption, they also led a ministry in Romania for adoptive families, significantly changing the adoption system in their city and nation.  

Ana is a gifted teacher and skilled pastoral counselor with a tremendous heart of compassion for seeing people healed emotionally and spiritually. Her vision is to equip and empower people to live in wholeness. She has years of experience discipling people to become free and reach their full potential in Christ. Aaron is passionate about worship, evangelism and leading people into the healing presence of Jesus and seeing them step into their full identity in Christ. He is also passionate about equipping and mobilizing the Body of Christ to know their true identity in Jesus, carry revival, and walk out the Great Commission in America and to the ends of the earth.  

In 2023 they felt God leading them to the US. Ana joined Arise Global while Aaron is in the process of joining 1Hope4America.

Arise Global’s focus is on equipping and strengthening the global body of Christ and on raising up a new wave of missionaries to bring the Kingdom of God around the world. We do this in part through a hybrid - online and in person, 7-month school we began in 2021, called Kingdom Culture and Personal Revival. Our heart is to see believers awakened to their true identity as sons and daughters who are equipped to live an empowered, transformed life in Christ and learn how to bring the kingdom of God to those around them.

We currently have two schools - one in Romania and one in a closed country in East Asia. We travel to Eastern Europe and Asia about 5 times a year, hosting our in-person weekends for our schools, ministering to leaders and churches, and equipping the body of Christ to arise and shine in this region of the world!  It's truly an honor and privilege to serve the Lord with Arise Global to see the nations encounter and be transformed by Jesus!

1Hope4America is partnering with churches across the United States to host revival meetings and crusades in order to mobilize and equip the Body of Christ to know their true identity in Jesus, carry revival, and walk out the Great Commission to go and reach America with the Gospel of the Kingdom! Aaron is helping to organize these evangelistic crusades and He is traveling to churches all across the US,  motivating and calling the body of Christ to missions and taking people on short term mission trips to Romania, Ukraine and other Eastern European countries.

We are both passionate about seeing people come to the fullness of their identity in Christ stepping into personal revival in such a way that families, communities and cultures are transformed and the Kingdom of God is fully manifested on earth as it is in heaven.

As missionaries, we are responsible to build a team of financial supporters to partner with us in this ministry. I'm inviting people to partner with me monthly as I continue in this exciting adventure with the Lord!

Thank you for partnering with me and seeing the nations encounter Jesus!
