I'm Destany Armani George, born and raised in East Orange, New Jersey. In college, I received a divine invitation from the Lord to experience the depths of the Father's love. Growing up in a low-income Caribbean household with a single mother battling schizophrenia and other health challenges, I initially questioned the call to leave my hometown and embark on a missionary journey across the country. Raised in church, I struggled with the misconception that I had to earn God's love through my actions.
Can you imagine the countless children, like myself, growing up without a father figure, desperately seeking love in all the wrong places? Globally, over 20 million children are fatherless, with 1 in 4 children in the US experiencing a similar reality. My own journey of searching for identity, worth, and faith led me to encounter God amidst the chaos of college parties and fleeting relationships.
Over the past three years, I've surrendered my life to Christ, dedicating the last two years to missionary work. God has beautifully rewritten my story, calling me to minister to youth who fear dreaming, college students seeking their purpose, and families grappling with lost hope. Every penny contributed towards my mission work aligns with the Great Commission of Matthew 28:19-20: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations..."
Partnering with Circuit Riders, a YWAM mission and training community, has been a dream I never knew God had for me. We embark on circuits to college campuses, high schools, prisons, and even global destinations, launching movements to reach the next generation.
Joining Circuit Riders has shown me the power of impacting the world and my generation in ways I never imagined possible. Thank you for supporting the calling over my life as we strive to bring the transformative message of the gospel to every tribe and tongue. Together, we can witness lives transformed, suicide rates diminished, and freedom embraced like never before. The gospel indeed has the power to change lives, and your partnership ensures its reach to the ends of the earth.
