My name is Jacob Kami, and I’m a full-time missionary from Sydney, Australia, currently serving with Circuit Riders, a branch of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) based in Huntington Beach, California.
My heart burns to see the world fall back in love with its first love—Jesus—and to help people discover the freedom that is only found in Him. This isn’t just a mission; it’s the story of my life.

My Journey
I grew up in church and was surrounded by the gospel and worship for as long as I can remember. In 2015, I made the decision to get baptized—but if I’m being honest, I didn’t fully surrender my life to Jesus then. I continued to live in cycles of sin, not realizing there was a greater freedom available to me.
Everything changed when I took a bold step and did a Discipleship Training School (DTS) in 2024. During that time, Jesus radically transformed my life. I finally encountered the fullness of His love and the power of His freedom. I realized that true surrender isn’t a loss—it’s a gain. It’s the beginning of real life.

The Mission
Circuit Riders exists to revive the saved, empower the lost, and save them all through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Being part of this movement has been one of the biggest blessings of my life. I feel so honored and expectant to be used by God to reach my generation and the generations to come. I know this is only the beginning.

How You Can Partner With Me
As a full-time missionary, I fully rely on the generosity of people like you—those who believe in the mission God has placed on my life. I’m looking to build a team of partners who will support me through prayer and financial giving.
I’m believing for $2,000 USD in monthly support, which will go directly toward the following:
• Giving (Tithes, offering, generosity)
• Housing/Rent
• Food (Groceries, meals out)
• Transportation (Car expenses, ministry travel, and flights)
• Self-Care (Medication, hygiene, wellness)
• Savings for stewardship and sustainability
If this is something God is putting on your heart, I would love for you to prayerfully consider becoming a monthly supporter or even giving a one-time donation to help bring the Gospel to people who have never truly encountered Jesus.

“You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.”
— 2 Corinthians 9:11 (NIV)
