Hi friends!

My name is Elyse Skoumal, and I am currently serving with a missions organization called Youth With A Mission (YWAM)! A few years ago, the Lord placed a deep passion in my heart to serve Him and pursue missions, though I wasn’t quite sure what that would look like.

In September of 2023, I had the opportunity to complete a six-month Discipleship Training School, where the Lord met me in remarkable ways and marked my heart for unreached people groups around the world. I had the amazing opportunity to trek through the Himalayan mountain range and distribute Bibles to villages only accessible by foot. During that time, the Lord spoke clearly to me about how I could use fitness to glorify Him!

At the end of September, I’ll be moving back to Kona, Hawaii, to step into full-time missions with YWAM. I will be joining the staff team with Respect the Corners (RTC).

“RTC is a missions training and sending movement, consumed by the love of Jesus, using our passion for fitness to make Him known in communities all around the world.”

It’s more than just fitness—it's about being equipped to bring the gospel to some of the hardest-to-reach places on Earth.

While on staff, I will be trained to coach in the sport of CrossFit, disciple others into a relationship with Jesus through fitness, gain leadership skills rooted in the Lord, and trek into different nations to spread the gospel.

I would love to invite you to partner with me through prayer and financial support! I'm currently looking for a team of monthly supporters to help sow into the Kingdom. My goal is to raise $2,000/month to cover rent, groceries, tithing, savings, and other expenses.

Would you prayerfully consider joining my monthly support team—or contributing a one-time gift?

With love,

Elyse
