Hi! My name is Elijah, and I am currently a missionary with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). I just finished my Discipleship Training School in Aalesund, Norway, and am now serving through mission building in Europe/North Africa and Asia.

I will be beginning a secondary school called the Bible School of Nations (BSN), in July. This school is one of only two in the world, located in Mazatlan, Mexico. It focuses on studying the entire Bible thoroughly, with an emphasis on teaching and sharing the word. Not only will I be able to strengthen my own faith and hone my skills, but I will be able to bring the word to the indigenous peoples of Mexico, and share the Good News of Jesus with them. This is a beautiful opportunity.

My vision for this time is to build up my own faith and prepare myself for the future, whilst also actively serving the Lord and bringing the Word to His people. Come the end of this school I want to have grown in my ability to share the Word of God in whatever industry, line of work or setting I find myself in. I want to be someone who is able to make a difference for Jesus in difficult settings. I believe that the study of Scripture is imperative to the foundations of my faith.

I chose this school because it gives me the opportunity to grow my scriptural roots deep, whilst giving me the opportunity to physically further the Kingdom by going out and proclaiming the Word of God. I also want to spend any available moment I have serving, which is why I am dedicating myself to mission building in order to prepare myself for this school.

Elijah
