Hey friends!
My name is Glory and I am currently serving with a missions organization called Youth With A Mission (YWAM). YWAM is a missions organization that believes each person has a God-given calling and wants to help equip people to fulfill that calling. In Matthew 28:19, Jesus calls all of us to “go and make disciples of all the nations…”. We all have a part to play in the great commission and bringing forth the good news. The heart of YWAM is to prepare and send people from every nation to every nation with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
In 2022, I attended a Discipleship Training School (DTS) with YWAM in Kona, Hawaii. The goal of DTS is to help the students know God more intimately and to learn how to make God known. It was during this time that God really gave me a heart for missions and discipleship. My heart is that people who have never heard the name of Jesus would come to know who He is and His love for them!
I completed my DTS in March of 2023 and I felt the Lord asking me to staff a Discipleship Training School. I said yes to what God was asking, and that fall I staffed a DTS with YWAM Kona and ended up leading a team to Cyprus. My team served with two families that had recently moved to Cyprus as long term missionaries. In this time we got to see God do amazing miracles in the people we met there. We saw God reveal Himself as a loving God through His word and through prayer and worship. It was amazing to see people who had never heard of Jesus come to know and understand the Gospel! Before my team left Cyprus, we got to pass on a thriving women’s Bible study, a men’s Bible study, as well as a small church body to the long term team! God did so much in such little time and I know He is not done.
After coming home, the Lord put it on my heart to return to Cyprus to continue to be a part of what He is doing there. In September of this year, I officially moved to Cyprus to join the long term team in the North. I am currently attending a three month leadership training school that will help equip me to do missions in a Muslim context, as well as give me tools for doing missions sustainably. It has been my greatest honor to come alongside what God is doing in the lives of others and I cannot wait to see what He has in store as our team continues to build ministry here in Cyprus.
I am very excited for the things that God has asked me to be a part of, but I can not do it alone. I would love to ask if you would be a part of what God is asking me to do as well! Please consider partnering with me through financial support and prayer.
How you can partner with me through prayer:
Our team is currently hoping and praying for a building to be able to host ministry in.
We have 5 short term teams that are joining us this winter and are needing sufficient housing for all of them.
Continued prayer for peace between the North and South sides of Cyprus, as there is much tension and hostility.
For wisdom and vision as our team prepares for lots of ministry in the new year.
How you can partner with me financially:
In order to obtain a long term visa here, I am enrolling in university to attend part time next semester. The cost of this is about $750.
Due to visa issues, I will be home for a few weeks for Christmas, but I need $1,500 to cover the cost of my flight back to Cyprus.
If you feel led to commit to being a monthly supporter, or giving a one time donation, you can give here! If you are interested in knowing more, please message me - I would love to set up a time to share more with you!
Thank you so much for your support, it truly means so much to me. I would not be able to do what I am doing without you! Your prayers and donations are serving the Kingdom of God!
