Hello! My name is Gabriella “Gabi” Darling, and I’m joining Youth With A Mission (YWAM) as a full-time missionary in Osaka, Japan.
The Lord placed a deep love for Japan on my heart from childhood, and over the past few years, He has confirmed this calling through prayer and my Discipleship Training School with YWAM Japan. I will be serving in both the university ministry and the English teaching ministry, building relationships with college students and language learners so I can share the love of Jesus in everyday life, classes, and conversations.
I also feel called to attend the School of Biblical Studies (SBS) hosted by YWAM in February 2027. This program is designed to teach students how to study all 66 books of the Bible using an inductive approach—observing what the text says in its proper context, interpreting its meaning, and applying it to life today. Through this school, I desire to be further equipped to take part in the Great Commission.
“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.” — Matthew 28:19
I am trusting God to provide a team of prayer and financial partners so I can focus fully on ministry. Monthly and one-time gifts help cover living expenses, health insurance, transportation, and SBS tuition.
Would you consider praying about partnering with me to see Japan transformed by God’s love and truth?
If you have any questions, I would love to connect with you. You can reach me at: anditsgabi@gmail.com
Sincerely, Gabi
