Hey Family and Friends!
My name is Jonah, and I’m so excited to share a little of my story with you and how you can take part in what God is doing in and through my life!
I became a Christian at an early age, but it wasn’t until I was 15 that I truly encountered the transforming love of God. Jesus radically saved my life and revealed that He is the only One who can truly satisfy my heart. Since then, I’ve had a burning passion to deeply and intimately know Jesus—and to make Him known to all creation.
In June 2024, I completed a Discipleship Training School (DTS) with Circuit Riders, a ministry of Youth With A Mission (YWAM). During my time there, I felt the Lord specifically call me to dedicate my life to missions—to reach my generation (Gen Z) and the nations of the earth with the Gospel!
1 John 5:11-12 says:
"This is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life."
The sad reality is that today, over 3.15 billion people have never heard the name of Jesus. They haven’t yet had the opportunity to know the One who gave His life to be in relationship with them.
My vision is to share the glorious news of the Gospel with those who have never heard it—with the lost, the sick, and the broken—so that they too might experience the abundant life found in Jesus
.
My mission is to inspire my generation to see the reality of the lost and respond boldly, declaring, “That's not okay—not on our watch, not while we have breath in our lungs!” I long to see our generation say an absolute “yes” to Jesus, dedicating our lives wholeheartedly following Jesus and to the fulfillment of the Great Commission!
To obey the calling God has placed on my heart: I will be serving with YWAM Lancaster in Pennsylvania. Some of the ministries I’ll be involved in includes:
Touring the U.S.: Challenging and encouraging this generation to step into God’s calling with radical obedience and inviting Gen Z to take part in Global missions!
Staffing Training Schools: Discipling and equipping young people through YWAM Lancaster’s Discipleship Training Schools (DTS) and Catalytic Bible Schools (CBS)
Serving in Worship and Prayer: Worshipping, and leading others into Worshipping Jesus, on the drums!
Going to the Nations: Joining outreach teams to take the Glorious Gospel to the ends of the earth!
Throughout these opportunities, my greatest desire is to know Jesus more intimately and to make Him known!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story. I would love to invite you to be part of the Great Commission.
Would you prayerfully consider supporting me through prayer and/or financial partnership? Your support would help send me to share the Good News and fulfill the mission God has placed on my heart!
All for the Glory of our King!
Blessings,
Jonah
