Hi EVERYONE!!
My name is Kaitlin and the Lord has put it on my heart to minister to and share His love with people everywhere and in order to do that effectively I am seeking both prayer and financial support to go to a Discipleship Training School and outreach with a program called YWAM (Youth With A Mission) with Fire and Fragrance in South Africa!
Throughout the last few years God has absolutely changed my life forever and changed my goals and passions and interests. I have a craving to serve others no matter where I am, and I have such a burden for the people all over the world who don’t know what life holds for them. There are so many people who have never heard about a person such as God who loves them and cares for them and KNOWS THEM and CREATED THEM. The whole world is surrounded with people who wake up and don’t have a purpose for their lives, people who have never felt true joy or felt loved before and as Christ followers we have the ability and the opportunity to share an abundance of love with them. This school is a great way for me to learn tools and skills to share the love of God with people in places where it has never been shown to them before.
The Discipleship Training School is 6 months and the first day is JUNE 11TH 2025!!
The first half is training which is 3 months on the base in South Africa and then the second 3 months is outreach which is going to be a group of students sent out to the nations and using what we have learned in different parts of the world. YWAM is one of the largest missions organizations in the world. And has YWAM workers and teams in almost every nation. Today there are over 20,000 full-time staff working in 1,000 locations in 180 countries. YWAM globally trains 25,000 students each year, and it is estimated that over 5 million people have
completed a DTS.
I have spent the last year in Chico going to school, working and serving on a college ministry team called Challenge CSUC and attending Chico Community Church
.
Being able to learn so much from the loving people I have been surrounded by has been such an amazing experience but the more I learn about God the more I realize Gods call on my life is different than I had ever thought or imagined for my future. God has just opened my mouth and will not shut it and He just has me shouting from the rooftops telling anyone I can about Jesus and His love and how He really has changed my life for the better and can change anyone’s life! Jesus says in Mark 16:15 “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” and I want to be a part of that, by sharing with those who don’t know the good news about the love that God has waiting for them.
There are not words to describe the joy that finding God and leaning on God and learning about all that He is, has brought to my life and it would be so unfair of me to not share that with as many people as I possibly can.
With that, I need YOUR help I would appreciate any prayers about travels and my fellow students and teachers and staff of YWAM and also financial support to get me equipped to share the GOOD NEWS!!
I would appreciate financial support for:
•Travel expenses, emergency medical insurance, foreign country fees, vaccines, communication (around $3000)
•Training School, room and board for 6 months (around $7000)
Your support is not overlooked. Each prayer is so very appreciated and each dollar is used for the Glory of God and spreading the gospel. Thank you for being part of my support team to change lives and eternal destinations💗
I would love to give updates and send newsletters during my time to keep you informed on what God is doing!! Please send me your email to (530) 917-9524 or email me at kaitlin2johnson@gmail.com
