Who I Am

My name is Samuel Akinyemi, and I am a first-generation Nigerian American who has spent my career advocating for communities through engineering, grassroots ministry, and social justice initiatives. My journey has taken me from corporate roles to hands-on community advocacy, but the common thread has always been a passion for people. This passion led me to take a step of faith by joining the Circuit Riders, where I am committed to bringing authentic love and the gospel to Los Angeles and beyond.

What My Ministry Is All About

I serve with Circuit Riders, a missionary organization powered by Youth With A Mission (YWAM) in Huntington Beach, California. Our mission is simple yet profound: to inspire a generation to encounter and spread the love of Jesus. Through evangelism, leadership training, and community activation, we aim to make Jesus known in homes, workplaces, and public spaces. For me, this ministry is deeply personal. My mission is to bring the transforming love of God to Los Angeles—a city of incredible diversity and potential—and to extend that love into the marketplace, creating spaces of grace and impact in everyday life.

Why I Need Your Support

The work I do is only possible through a strong community of prayer and financial partners.

To sustain this mission, I need $4,000 per month to cover housing, food, transportation, giving, and savings.

Your support—whether through one-time gifts or monthly contributions—enables me to dedicate myself fully to this calling. Every prayer and every dollar is a seed planted for His Kingdom, helping me to be a tangible expression of love in the lives of others.

Thank you for being a part of this journey—your generosity makes a real difference, and I am so grateful to share this movement with you.
