Hi there :)
My name is Jessica and I am currently serving at a Youth With A Missions base in Kansas City!
I met Jesus when I was 15 years old at an evening service in a small church in California that my grandparents were pastoring at the time. All my life I had heard about the love of Jesus but it wasn't until He had actually set me free from my sin and shame, breaking down all the walls around my heart down, that I had truly known His love. I gave my life to Jesus that night and received His in return. I'll spend every day that is left telling others about this extravagant love!
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He sent His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
This sending movement did not end with the Father sending Jesus. We were commissioned by Jesus Himself in Matthew 28 to "go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."
In January 2023 I came to YWAM KC for Discipleship Training School with this in mind. I knew Jesus was telling me that it's time to go. I went through DTS receiving major breakthroughs, stretching, growing, and I saw many come to Jesus while on outreach in the Philippines! More than anything my heart began to break for the 3.1 billion people in the world who have yet to even hear the gospel. Throughout my leadership training from September-November I began to intercede for the unreached, believing that through my partnership with God in prayer there would be a harvest of souls and a harvest of laborers to go swiftly with the Gospel to the unreached.
I am extremely excited to say that God is sending me as a solution to these prayers as I have the great privilege of joining YWAM KC's Go Team in January 2024! On Go Team our mission is to not only go ourselves to the unreached all over the world, but to also mobilize this next generation of the church to the unreached!
We will have the opportunity to go on tours throughout the United States inviting people to join us this summer as we take multiple teams to the unreached, and I personally will be joining a team going to the Middle-East.
Currently only 3.3% of all missions work is done in unreached people groups, which leaves only 1 Christian missionary for every 216,300 people. But I, along with YWAM believe that this is the hour for God to send more laborers so that all would hear and know about our great Jesus!
Will you partner with what God is doing on the earth and send us?
“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. How, then, can they call on the one who they have not believed in? and how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? and how can they hear without someone preaching to them? and how can anyone preach unless they are sent?” - Romans 10: 13-15
In order for me to give myself fully to this, I am in need of $1,895.34 monthly:
- Rent and Home Maintenance: $216
- Bills: $134.34
- Food/Self-Care: $400
- Partnership Development/Postage Expenses: $75
- Travel (car fuel and airline tickets): $750
- Giving (tithe, offering, missions support) $200
- Medical/Dental: $20
- Emergency: $100
If you would like to commit to becoming a monthly supporter or giving a one-time gift please pray about an amount you can give here!
Your partnership means the world to me. Each prayer is coveted, and each dollar is used for His Kingdom. Thank you for sending us!
Compelled by love and Commissioned to go,
Jessica
