Hello! My name is Kayla Baumann. Since I was a kid, I knew I would be a missionary. What I didn't expect was to be one in the city I grew up in.

The world is coming to Philadelphia. Tourists, immigrants, college students, and more. We have the awesome ability to reach people for Christ from around the world without leaving our city!

Part of what I want and feel called to do is make it possible for churches and ministries in the city to be able to support each other so we can better work together in accomplishing the great commission. I am still praying about what this looks like.

I'm also talking with my church about forming a missions team, so we can do consistent outreaches in the neighborhood. We want to provide training for those who want to learn and practice a more missional lifestyle as well as connect people who already are living one, so we don't feel as alone. My pastors and I are in the beginning stages of praying about and planning out what this should look like.

I also feel called to write Christian Fiction stories that show how a person's faith can impact his or her daily decisions and what it's like to live out your calling, whether you want it or not.Though I have tried to pretend I didn't understand and tried to reason with God about why I shouldn't do this, I have finally come to the place where I can accept and even be excited about what I believe God is calling me to, along with these other things.I believe God is asking me to pioneer another YWAM base in the Greater Philadelphia area! I am in the beginning stages of this and reaching out to other leaders and elders in YWAM for wisdom and guidance as I take steps towards obeying this assignment.

Ministry is hard... and we can easily feel isolated. But we weren't meant to do this alone. We need each other.

In order to fulfill God's call on my life, I need to work with a team of people who want to be a part of all He is doing in this city and through my life, both through prayer and financial support. I would love for you to have an investment in the Kingdom and claim to helping enable these things to happen! Would you consider joining this team?
