Hello, my name is Emily Desrochers, I am a full time missionary with an organization called Youth With A Mission (YWAM.)

Over the past seven years I  have been serving in Tijuana, Mexico where my main role has been discipleship.

In 2019, I did my Discipleship Training School (DTS,) where we learned about who God is and then we would go on short term outreaches to share about what we had learned. After my DTS, I did a couple of schools to deepen my relationship with Jesus, to better equip me to serve in ministry and discipleship, and to help me develop and maintain healthy relationships with those that I was serving in local ministries there in Mexico.

Over the years, I have had the privilege as well to staff the Discipleship Training Schools that have taken place in Tijuana. I have also been able to lead some other school’s outreaches that we have in Mexico in different countries such as Columbia, Peru, and Brazil. My heart behind discipleship is so that people can hear Gods voice and watch Him transform their lives. There is something so beautiful about walking alongside someone as they grow in their relationship with God and gain a heart for missions.

Over the past year I have been in Montana, where I just graduated a 9 month school called The School of Biblical Studies (SBS.) During these months I developed a passion for the Bible as a whole and I want others to understand it as well, my hope one day is to aid in ending Bible poverty by studying more of the Word and to be able to translate it for others.  

After my SBS, I felt God calling me to take a big step and move to Montana where I will be taking a season of rest after the many years of the busy schedules of schools and the discipleship that comes with staffing schools, to be able to reflect and process the last 7 years of ministry. I will still be serving in missions, I will just be serving the base in a different light (other jobs on base) until next year where I will be in a healthier place to jump back into discipleship with the Montana base.

Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about what I have been doing and what God is doing in my life, would you consider joining my financial team and partnering with me to make God and His Word known to others?

Emily
