Hello, I am Emma Ferguson. I am a 20 year old from Quincy, IL and I am a full-time missionary. I joined YWAM September 2023 to obey God's call on my life. I finished my discipleship training school (DTS) in March 2024. Those six months were the most transformative time of my life. I got to spend 3 months in Burundi and Kenya with my team where we evangelized and shared God's love with the people there. It was truly an amazing experience to see God's love touch these people and I want everyone to get that chance! 

I'm so excited to continue my life in missions. I have committed 2 years to staff the pioneering YWAM base in Nashville, TN! The Lord has called me to this, and I am so expected for how He is going to move in Nashville and in the nations! We will begin the first DTS in October. I'm so excited to pour into the students and see the Lord touch their hearts! 

YWAM’s primary focus is on knowing God and making Him known. YWAM stands for Youth with a Mission. During the Lecture phase of DTS, we spend 8-10 hours a day building and honing our skills, developing character, and growing in knowledge and deeper in Worship - all to help bring revival and reformation to the nations. YWAM is working to get the Gospel to the hardest and darkest places of the world by fulfilling the Great Commission of Jesus.  I am honored to be a small part of that.  

To fulfill this calling in my life right now, I am raising awareness and trusting God to meet my needs and expenses.  I will have expenses for everything like housing, travel, food, supplies, and other personal expenses. I need around $1500 a month to meet all my needs while I serve in Nashville. While financial support is important and needed, so is prayer! God is faithful and has already gotten me this far and I know He will continue to provide. Please prayerfully consider joining me. Your help with prayer and/or finances is greatly appreciated! Thank you to everyone who has given to help me go forward in this calling. 

Emma
