Hello! I’m Matt! And I’m about to start my 6 month school with Circuit Riders in their Fall DTS training to become a full time missionary!!
Ever since I was 8 I felt a calling to missions over my life. I’ve always liked speaking (thanks ADHD) but my love truly comes from sharing the Gospel and with this came a desire to go and share the good news to anyone who would listen, like to high schools and colleges. But one place has always been a calling to me, going back to my home country of Guatemala and meeting my birth mom and sharing the Gospel to her one day!
My focus with Circuit Riders is in evangelism and discipleship, learning to present the Gospel but also teach it to others! Throughout this training school, I will learn how to better hear the voice of God and to understand what it looks like to have a lifestyle of evangelism. I will experience growth in my personal leadership, I will also develop a life of prayer and intercession. It may seem like I can do these things anywhere, but the Lord has been leading me to pursue this path, and having a season dedicated to learning and growing in this missional calling will be beneficial for me and the people I will encounter.
Through this program it will be a step in answering my calling, which is to one day end up in Guatemala leading high school and young adults to seek Jesus, while also strengthening parents who are giving their children up for adoption and adopted kids learning to love and forgive their families for the choice of giving them up for adoption, through Jesus and his love and adoption of us as his children.
Before Jesus ascends into heaven, his last command to his disciples is to go into all the nations proclaiming the Gospel and make disciples (Matt. 28:19-20). This is not called the Great Suggestion, but it is called the Great Commission, which is a command. I believe that this is what God has called me to do with my life.
I would love to ask you to partner with God and myself through financial support and through prayer!
In order to make this possible I will need a total of $6,000. This amount will cover the costs while I am attending the school. These costs include:
• Food
• Flights
• Gas
• Any other discretionary costs
If you would like to become a monthly supporter or give a one-time gift, pray about an amount to give and you can give through this link! "In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel." (1 Corinthians 9:14)
It is through your giving and your prayers that I am empowered to go! I pray that the Lord will bless you as you give towards this!
