Dear loving friends and family,
April 2024
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” Matthew 28:19.
In October of 2023 after much prayer, I felt strongly that God was calling me to YWAM (Youth With A Mission). I decided to listen and was lined up to go to Perth Australia’s four-wheel drive adventure Discipleship Training School (DTS) with everything set in motion to leave in January. A few weeks before I was set to leave, due to some family complications, I was not able to go to Perth, with the earliest time to go being in July. I thought everything I had heard was wrong, and that I would not be going to YWAM anytime soon……. but God.
In February of this year, I met an amazing couple that is very involved with YWAM. A few months later, they invited me to a summer adventure DTS they will be leading in July. It was a tough decision because I thought my mind was already made up, but I took a step of faith, signed up, and got accepted.
I will be leaving in July 2024 to Cascade, Idaho. It is a summer adventure school where we will spend two and a half months in the lecture phase and another two and a half months in the outreach phase. The lecture phase is where we will dive deep into God’s word, plant a firm foundation for the rest of our lives, and focus on growing our relationship with God on a very personal level. The outreach phase is where we will go international and apply everything we learned from the lecture phase. We will be doing things such as: ministering to orphans and widows, distributing Bibles to remote villages, helping church planters start new fellowship, preaching and teaching in churches, prayer walking, two-by-two evangelism, and praying for the sick, lame, and demon-possessed.
I would love support from you! Spiritual support is the most helpful. I would appreciate it if you could keep me in your prayers and tell anyone you feel led about this adventure I’m going on.
If you want to support me financially, the cost of the school is $4,300 for the lecture/classroom portion and $4,300 for the outreach portion. I would like to invite you to be a part of what God had called me to do, so prayerfully consider supporting me financially on this mission school. I would consider It a privilege to have you on my team in every way you feel led.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Have an amazing, blessed day.
