Hi Friends! I’m Madeline :)

I was saved by Jesus at a very young age. Growing up in church, His presence became my home and has been the unwavering foundation of who I am today.

At 13, I had a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit that ignited my heart for Gen Z—a generation plagued by anxiety and depression, searching for truth in the wrong places. From that moment, I felt called to take immediate action. I stepped into leadership with the youth ministry at Ekklesia NY, where I have served for the past nine years.

It has been incredibly rewarding to see NYC's youth encounter the Lord over the past decade. Walking with them through life's ups and downs has been my greatest gift. We have witnessed the Lord heal addictions, break generational curses, restore families, and soften the hardest hearts. Most of our youth are first generation Christians, being the reason their families find Jesus. We are also seeing the rise of Gen Alpha leaders committed to sharing the Gospel.

As I approach my 10th year with Ekklesia Youth, the Lord has opened a new door for me. This fall, I will be joining YWAM (Youth With A Mission) Circuit Riders’ Discipleship Training School in Huntington Beach, CA.

The heart of Circuit Riders is to save the lost, revive the saved, and train them all, inspiring our generation to love like Jesus.

I believe this next step will be one of refinement and equipping. There is a great need for Jesus in our youth, and I believe a revival is coming, not just for Gen Z but for all who follow. This new path is simply another vessel for His glory.

It is an honor to be part of what God is doing, and I cannot express enough thanks to God and to those who have supported His call in my life.

I would love to ask for your partnership through financial support and prayer.

I need to raise $12,000 to cover my time at Circuit Riders, including tuition, transportation, and living expenses. If you’d like to support me monthly or with a one-time donation, please pray about an amount and give here.

Your support means the world to me. Every prayer is heard, and every dollar is used for His Kingdom. You are part of this movement of God! By your prayer and support, you are with me as I go.

Let’s see a generation come to Jesus. <3
