Hi! I am Louise, born in the Netherlands, but right now travelling all over the world as a missionary with YWAM Circuit Riders.
When I was 12 years old, Jesus met me, God revealed Himself to me, as a loving Father, Friend, Savior and Holy God. Over these past ten years, Jesus has changed my life, brought me from death to life, given me purpose and has shown me His great love in the sacrifice of the cross. He has shown me the greatest love: He gave up his life so that I could have life abundantly.
God clearly called me to the greatest commandment: to love Him and all those around me. Later in my walk with Jesus, He revealed to me His heart for the lost through His Word.
“Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”' - Matthew 9:35-38
After first praying for labourers, Jesus then showed me that I am one of them, that I am called to go, to go from a heart of compassion, to go and preach the Good News, to go and make disciples and make Him and His love known to all! Then God opened all the doors for me to join YWAM Circuit Riders as a fulltime missionary.
YWAM Circuit Riders has a heart to know God and make Him known. We want to save the lost, revive the saved and train them all. We want to reach the next generation, Gen Z, a generation that seems lost to the world, but is so in need of the eternal hope of Jesus Christ. We are reaching this generation through training, discipleship schools, evangelism, gatherings, music and media.
My heart is to see the next generation saved, in love with Jesus and activated to share the Good News with all those around them!
Within Circuit Riders I will help in the Discipleship Training School (DTS), mentoring young girls, helping with ministry during classes and helping with administrative tasks. Besides that I will help with outreaches, mainly in Europe, but also anywhere the Lord calls me to go!
This is not just my mission, but we are all part of the Great Commission, to see all the lost come home and make disciples of all nations! I cannot do this without God, but I cannot also not do this without the support of you, through prayer and/or financially. Would you consider partnering with me in this mission?
Thank you so much and much love!
Louise Dijs
