Friends and family,

This January, I will be doing a 6-month Discipleship Training School with Circuit Riders, based in Huntington Beach, California!!

Circuit Riders is a branch of YWAM (Youth With A Mission) that focuses on reaching Gen Z with the Gospel. For the first three months, I will live in community and be trained, equipped, and empowered in the Word, evangelism, worship leading, and more. For the second 3 months, I will serve as a missionary with an outreach team, leading worship and preaching the Gospel to high schoolers and college students in a specific nation (I do not know where yet!). 

I have gotten multiple confirmations from the Lord that this is what He has prepared next for me after I graduate. I am so expectant and excited for this concentrated time where I will be able to devote myself fully to loving God and His people. 

I cannot do this without your support! Whether it’s through prayer or by giving financially, I would love for you to partner with me in any way or capacity you can. I am deeply grateful for you and for sewing into what, I believe, will be such a fruitful season.

Here’s the cost breakdown:

$700: housing deposit due November 1st

$3,500: lecture fee and housing due December 6th

$3,500-4,500: missions tour fee (depending on what nation I go to) due December 6th

$2,000: food and living expenses

Total: $10,700

I am trusting God to provide everything I need. In this time of waiting, here is my prayer:

“Two things I ask of you, LORD; do not refuse me before I die: Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread.” (Proverbs 30:7-8)
