Hi friends! My name is Vanessa-Djayne and in July 2024, I graduated from FFSA’s 6-month Discipleship Training School and was met by how much God loves people from every tribe, tongue and nation. A deep passion for the Scriptures was also ignited and I was amazed by how the God of the universe reached out His hand to make the heart of humankind His dwelling place. As of now, I’m currently serving with Youth for Christ Montreal with the intention of

transitioning to become a full-time missionary in South Africa with Fire and Fragrance (FFSA), a branch of the missionary program Youth With A Mission (YWAM), in February 2025.

Fire and Fragrance (FF) is an international missional community focused on training and sending young people to go to the nations to make God known! As Jesus instructed in the Great Commission, FF bases around the world both empowers and equips people to go to the ends of the earth for love, carrying God’s spirit of life and truth to every corner they go to. And God is working! In South Africa, FFSA is committed to activate every believer to live lives of worship, prayer and evangelism and has seen so much transformation happen already. It was an honor to be able to see it firsthand and I am beyond excited to go back next year to see God’s work continue.

However, I can’t do it alone and nor do I want to. I would love to ask you to partner with me through both financial support and prayer. I would need $800 CAD (10, 350 ZAR) per month for:

• Giving (tithes, offering, and generosity)

• Food (groceries, eating out, etc.)

• Phone plans

• Insurance

• Transportation (car and flights)

• Hygiene / self-care products

• Savings!

“In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel.”

– 1 Corinthians 9:14 ESV

If you’d like to commit to becoming a monthly supporter, or giving a one-time donation, please pray about an amount and you can give here! Your support means so much to me; every dollar contributed and every prayer offered are ways that you’re sowing into God’s work in the nations! I cannot thank you enough.
