Hi everyone! My name is Helen Jerrolds and I am currently a full time missionary with YWAM (Youth With a Mission) in Kona Hawaii!

If someone were to tell me in my first years of high school that I was to be called to a life of missions, I would have never believed it. During my senior year in high school however I felt the Lord place the calling of missions on my life and in September of 2023, I participated in a DTS (Discipleship Training School) through YWAM Kona. During my time there, I walked in discipleship, learned about Christian values and beliefs, and about the heart of prayer and worship before being sent to the Philippines on a short term missions trip where the Lord opened my eyes to His love for the people in the nations.

During my time in DTS I could for the first time, feel the tangible presence and love of the Lord and it changed my perspective about missions and giving me a heart and desire to pursue it. This all coming from a place of brokenness and struggling with receiving the love of the Lord. The burden and desire the Lord has placed on my heart is that He would encounter people in unreached nations who do not know Jesus’ name and show them that He is The Way The Truth and The Life (John 14:6).

I returned to YWAM Kona to continue on

staff where I am receiving further training and discipleship to help train and raise young people up as leaders who love the Lord! My heart during my time serving as a missionary through YWAM is to be able to continue grow in my love in worship and prayer for the Lord while going to unreached nations to make disciples and spread the good news of Jesus based on Christ’s command in Matthew 28:19 and Mark 16:15

As missionaries through YWAM, it is a full time volunteer position and I want to ask you to partner with me in this journey as I seek to look and lead more like Christ each day and bring His truth into the nations. Any support given financially will go into housing, transportation, groceries, and tithes during my time in Kona and in the nations.

Would you consider prayerfully giving prayerfully or financially to help see the lost saved and transformed by God’s love and grace?

Thank you,

Helen
