Hello and welcome to our giving page! We are the Rodriguez family, full-time missionaries with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). In 2019 right after my wife and I got married, we went into full-time missions with The Circuit Riders, which is a ministry of YWAM. Here we completed our Discipleship Training School and brought the Gospel to college campuses equipping people to become catalysts for their local communities and saw thousands of young men and woman encounter the love of Jesus. The 2020 pandemic sent us back home where we welcomed our three girls, Nova Reign (4), Zia Wonder (2), and Ava Glory (9 months). The Lord has been so clear that this season of being home has come to an end and it's time to live out the calling he has so clearly placed over our lives, missions. The Lord has specifically called our family to bring the Gospel to the 10/40 Window. 

What is the 10/40 window?

The 10/40 window is the rectangular area of North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia approximately between 10 degrees North and 40 degrees North latitude. The 10/40 window is often called "The Resistant Belt" and is home to the largest unreached people groups in the world. It also includes the majority of the world's Muslims, Hindus, Buddhist, and is home to the majority of the world's unevangelized countries. The "unevangelized" are people who not only have a minimal knowledge of the Gospel, but also have no opportunity to respond to it. That fact alone underscores the need for prioritizing The Great Commission efforts in the 10/40 window!

Our heart for the 10/40 window is simply that the name of Jesus would be made known, even in the darkest, and most unreachable of places! That ALL would know of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and have an opportunity to encounter the love, redemption and healing power of our Lord Jesus. We wish to equip souls with the Gospel, to be a catalyst in their region for the sake of Jesus Christ. To deny themselves that others would know of the love of our savior King Jesus, and will do anything to see His will fulfilled in the nations!

Our family can't live out this calling without The Church, the full body of Christ. We are looking to build a team of investors who will give $10,000 a month, which will allow our family of 5 to become equipped in the language, dialects, and culture before we move to live in the 10/40 window and serve out what God is doing there being His hands and feet in that region. Would you prayerfully consider joining this team of monthly investors, partnering with our family, or contribute a one-time gift? 

The Great Comission

When He saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to The Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest." Matthew 9:36-38

Over two billion people in the world have yet to hear the Gospel because no one has gone to tell them. We believe the resounding response in this generation is "Here am I. Send ME!" YWAM exists to equip and launch laborers who burn with passion for His presence, are committed in community, and long to see the nations encounter Him.
