What's Up Friends and Family?!

It's our joy and privilege to be like the disciples and apostles and communicate the goodness of God and how we are experiencing Him both in our daily lives, and in the lives of those we come into contact with!

(J)ohn (C)hristian first did his Discipleship Training School back in 2017 with YWAM Boston. He later came on staff and served with both the DBS and the DTS ministries starting in 2019. Then in 2020, made a transition into serving as the Campus Director's Personal Assistant, a Worship Leader with YWAM Boston's Worship and Prayer ministry, and a networker for the ministry as a whole. He has now taken on the roles as Operations Manager and Communications Manager.

Rachel did her DTS the year prior to JCs in 2016 and came on to help pioneer the Dance ministry at YWAM Boston. She then faithfully served as the CAW DTS School Leader for several years. In 2023 Rachel passed off leadership of the DTS so that she could serve as the Training Director for all our schools here at YWAM Boston and is currently serving in that position. Rachel still loves to dance and also helps with the CAW DTS Dance Focus.

Rachel and JC then added a little one to the mix! Pryor Hayes Masick was born on May 18th, 2024, at 8.8 ounces! He is such cuddly little guy and loves to eat! (Just like his dad!) He is a true gift and joy!

As single individuals in YWAM, we both had to come to the conclusion that God was calling us into full-time missions. Some decisions were harder than others, but we relinquished our rights to "normal" lives and chose God's portion. Then the Lord brought us together to run after Jesus and see the next wave of young missionaries be trained up in the ways of Christ to see this world transformed for His Kingdom.

For Rachel, that looks like training dancers in their art to glorify God and minister to those through their performance, while also bringing up future leaders to lead young people in YWAM Training Schools.

For JC, that looks like emboldening the church to come alive with a passion for evangelism, teaching the Bible, witnessing to the lost, and raising up young men to answer the call of God on their lives.

For us as a family, that looks like leading the church into the throne room through worship and servant leadership. We are not afraid to get our hands dirty and do the hard things if it means more people get to see Jesus! Our true goal is to honor God through our marriage and to be walking epistles of God's redemption and beauty for not only our lives but for the lives around us.

And so, we're honored! We're honored that you have caught the vision of what God is doing through us at YWAM Boston and want to hear more! We cannot begin to say thank you enough! The call to missions is never easy, but we have seen God do countless miracles and totally believe that this call to missions and this call to YWAM Boston is not only imperative but essential!

Therefore, you are essential to what God is doing among the earth! Thank you for your support! We love you all a ton and cannot wait to see how God brings His Kingdom to earth through us and you!

Grace & Peace JC, Rachel, and Pryor Masick
