Some of you may or may not know that I am working with media on the YWAM (Youth With A Mission) Base in Norway called Grimerud located about an hour from Oslo in a town called Ottestad. We are a base of about 170 staff. Some of the different roles on our base are finance, maintenance, worship and prayer, hospitality, the kitchen and LT, (a Group of leaders that run the base). We also have people who work with the missionaries that have been sent out from this base, and I am working with media to be able to reach out to people through social media to be able to hear about Jesus and that is just some of the things this base does!
One of my jobs in media is working with an Instagram account that is called the Message where we do street interviews and our whole goal is to ask people deep questions about life or faith. We want people to open up to think about the deeper things in life! And hopefully if the Lord leads, we like to share the gospel off camera, and so far working with this team we have seen a lot of fruitful conversations! I am also working on shooting short films and that’s been a lot of fun to learn about that!
This is just a bit about the base I am on!!
YWAM Grimerud equips missional young people and raises them to live wholeheartedly for God. Our passion is to reach the least reached nations as well as the post-Christian West. We want to cross borders into foreign cultures and all spheres of society. God has spoken to us: “What you hope for in the nations, let it happen here!” Our passion is also to be a part of a national movement in Norway, calling this nation back to God. Our heart beats for revival that brings reformation, a new wave of missions to the nations, and for the unity of the body of Christ. We believe we are a community that is a catalyst to champion new teams and ministries in Norway and the world.
Some things I could use prayers for is that it has definitely been a lot to move to another country and leave everything I know, in that I have been so thankful to be here but it can be a bit overwhelming especially jumping into new skill that I am working on!
I could also use some prayers for wisdom and discernment in making the right choices for the up and coming seasons! Also If there is any way you want me to pray for you feel free to text me or email me!
