My name is Carlona Brevard, and I am a follower of Jesus Christ committed to living a life fully laid down in obedience to Him. I believe that surrender is not a one time decision, but a daily posture, and my desire is to live in a way that reflects Christ in both word and action.
Over the years, the Lord has shaped my heart through service, leadership, and seasons of pruning, teaching me that true devotion is not found in comfort, but in faithfulness. What began as a quiet yes in prayer has grown into a clear call to go where I am sent.
I am a strong believer that the Gospel is not only meant to be spoken, but lived. People do not just need to hear about Jesus, they need to see the Christ in us. My heart is to embody the love, humility, and compassion of Christ in tangible ways, allowing His presence to be made known through service, sacrifice, and obedience. I believe that when we live the Gospel, it becomes an invitation for others to encounter Jesus for themselves.
In response to this calling, I have been accepted into a mission with Circuit Riders, where I will undergo four months of intensive training and discipleship, followed by two months of serving alongside local churches in South Africa. This season of preparation is designed to refine my character, deepen my faith, and equip me to serve with boldness and humility. The focus of this mission is not to build platforms or personalities, but to advance the Kingdom of God through evangelism, discipleship, and partnership with the local church.
My ministry is centered on what I call a Holy Revolution, not one fueled by force or self promotion, but by surrender, love, and obedience to Christ. At the core of it, my heart is simply for people. I want individuals and communities to not just hear the Gospel, but to experience it in real and tangible ways. I believe the love of Jesus should be felt just as much as it is spoken.
Whether that looks like praying with someone, showing up consistently, or walking alongside people in their everyday lives, my desire is to serve in ways that genuinely honor Christ and respect the communities we are called to. I do not believe ministry is about having all the answers, but about being present, faithful, and willing to say yes when God calls.
To step into this mission, I am raising $15,000 to cover training tuition, housing, food, transportation, and ministry related expenses. I am asking for partnership not only through financial support, but through prayer, for wisdom, endurance, humility, and protection as I go.
I know this assignment was never meant to be carried alone, and I am deeply grateful for every person who chooses to stand with me, believing that a life laid down for Christ truly produces eternal fruit.
