Hi there!
My name is Emily, and for the past 3+ years, I’ve had the privilege of serving with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) Grimerud in Norway. YWAM’s mission is simple: to know God and make Him known.
I first came to YWAM in 2022 for Discipleship Training School (DTS), with a desire to learn how to follow Jesus more deeply. I finished the school with a transformed heart and an invitation to keep saying “yes” to God in the form of a life in missions. Since then, I’ve had the joy of serving as YWAM staff—discipling others, participating in outreach and missions around the world, and more recently helping strengthen training and practical systems on the base.
My time in YWAM has given me a deeper love for Jesus, missions, and the lost. It has also helped me discover more of how God has uniquely created me and how He is calling me to serve in specific ways. Now, I feel God leading me to Albania.
This fall, I’ll be joining Fire & Fragrance Albania for a 3.5-month internship. I’ll be serving alongside their long-term team through evangelism, discipleship, intercession, and serving local communities, while continuing to learn and grow as a missionary. I’m excited to invest this time in building relationships, sharing the Gospel, partnering with God through prayer, and joining the work He is already doing in the Nation.
After the internship, I’m still discerning what comes next and where God may lead me in missions. For now, I’m grateful to simply say “yes” to the opportunity He has placed in front of me and trust Him with the steps that follow.
As I step into this new season, I’m inviting others to partner with me through prayer, encouragement, and financial support. If you feel led to support what God is doing in Albania, I would be incredibly grateful to have you join my team of supporters.
Your partnership makes a difference. Whether through a one-time gift or monthly support, your generosity helps make it possible for me to participate in full-time ministry in Albania. Your support goes towards the practical costs of serving and living in the nation—including housing, food, travel, and ministry expenses.
I’d love for you to be part of this journey and to see what God does through this opportunity!
“...Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” — Matthew 28:18–20
Thank you for praying, encouraging, and partnering with me!
Many blessings,
Emily
