Hi! My name is Anna Lise Reiner.

I love God and believe that everyone was made for a relationship with Him. I see now how God had been pursuing my heart all my life, and eventually I gave in and surrendered my life to Christ in college. God has since taken me on a wild journey. He called me into full time ministry and I made my home with a church in Truckee California where I was a resident in their leadership program for a year and a half. There I was discipled, grew in leadership, and served the local church. Then, God directed me to international missions and I now am based out of Kona Hawaii. My calling is to be loved by God, and from that place love God, and then share that love with others as God directs my footsteps.

Currently, I am a missionary on staff with Youth With A Mission Kona. We believe that God is doubling the international missions force and He's doing it with Gen Z. I staff a discipleship training school here called a DTS. It's a six month program where youth come and get discipled and grow in their relationship with God for three months in Kona, and then go on a three month mission trip! I help disciple students in the school and also lead outreach teams! I love Gen Z, discipleship, and leading youth into their missional callings as I pursue mine! We train, equip, and go spread the gospel to people who have never heard it before. We want to - and believe - we can see the Great Commission fulfilled in our lifetime. 

As a missionary, I need the help and support of others. I can not do this alone.  Being on the mission field full time is hard - I need the encouragement and covering of your prayers. I need a community of people praying for me and with me on this journey. God has called us all to the Great Commission. The Great Commission is the last command Jesus gave before He ascended into heaven. We, as people living on the other side of Jesus’s victory, and having been given the luxury to hear and know the gospel, now have the invitation to partner with Him to spread the gospel to all peoples so that all the Earth may have been given the chance to choose Jesus. Just like God chooses us to partner with Him, God desires the body of Christ be in unity and partner with each other. Since I’m a full time missionary, I have to fundraise for support. However you feel led to, I invite you to partner with me!
