Missionary Derek Bandi Alvarado DONATE My name is Derek, and I'm embarking on a new season of ministry in worship and music production. My faith, rooted in a Christian upbringing, has become deeply personal, revealing God's purpose and calling in my life. This journey fuels my passion. While I previously served in skate ministry, worship has always been my core calling. Recently, God clearly led me to pursue full-time music production. Despite initial uncertainty, I said "yes," and I've now been invited to join a music production team at a YWAM Mazatlán. This is a perfect alignment of worship, creativity, and global missions. I'll be volunteering, creating music to impact hearts and advance the Kingdom—a significant and demanding step of faith. This new chapter is a season of interdependence, where I believe we're called to join forces. As I dedicate myself to this mission, I deeply desire your partnership. If you're passionate about worship, music, missions, or simply believe in walking in purpose, your support is vital. I need partners who will stand with me in prayer for creative inspiration and breakthroughs, and those who feel led to provide financial support to cover my living and ministry expenses. Every contribution directly enables me to fully embrace this calling. I want you to feel part of this journey. Your partnership is an investment in global Kingdom impact through music. Derek Donate

MISSIONARY Raney Sutherland DONATE Hi! I'm Raney Sutherland, a full time missionary with YWAM (Youth With A Mission) based in Kona, Hawaii! I did my DTS (Discipleship Training School) in 2020 and my whole life was radically changed by the love of Jesus, and the recognition that He had a place and a purpose for my life in finishing the Great Commission! I'm so excited to share this truth with people of every tribe, tongue, and nation, and help equip others to do the same! I am on staff with a school called Fire and Fragrance! Our vision is to see young people be set on fire for Jesus and be compelled by love to go to the ends of the earth to share the Gospel! They are equipped to do this through 6 month programs called Discipleship Training Schools. The first 3 months is a Lecture Phase where they learn more about God's heart and His extravagant love for them. The second half is an Outreach Phase for another 3 months, where they take all they have learned, and serve and love people in another nation. Our goal is "to know God, and make Him known!" The role that I will be playing in this is that I will be intentionally discipling the students, and guiding them as they go through the program, doing life with them as they have growth and breakthroughs! I, (along with a co-leader), will also be planning the outreach portion, and will be leading a team to whatever nation we are given! I am so honored to be a part of what God is doing in this generation and am full of faith as I watch young people have deep relationship with Jesus, walk in freedom, and share His love in the hardest and darkest places! I would love for you to be a part of this! Would you prayerfully consider partnering with me in prayer and finances to see this happen? Thank you! Raney You may also give by check, if you like. Please make checks payable to "EquipNet" and make sure you include my account Equip3721 in the Memo Section on the face of your check. Please mail to: EquipNet, P.O. Box 860 Alamo, CA 94507 Donate

Missionary Kylie Stromquist DONATE Hi guys :) My name is Kylie Stromquist and I will soon be stepping into the Circuit Riders missions organization to do their 5 month Discipleship Training School! Ever since encountering the love of Jesus my junior year of high school my heart has burned for others to know Him and His love that satisfies the human heart. I was lost in brokenness, anxiety, performance living, and caring about how others saw me that made me be someone I was not. This lead to a lifestyle that was broken and only a cover for what I was dealing with underneath. I was longing for my heavenly Father and His love and didn't know it. When He encountered me with His deep love the world no longer satisfied me. I was overcome by His great mercy and love and the purpose I had always had in Him. I was and still am on fire for others to know Him! This discipleship school starts this upcoming January of 2025 where we will first have a 3 month lecture/learning phase and then a 2 month outreach phase to the nations! During our lecture phase we will step into discipleship where the core of the ministry starts from an overflow of the love of Jesus in our own personal lives through relationship with Him and others. We will be equipped in sharing the Gospel, evangelism, cultivating a culture/lifestyle of worship + prayer, growing/learning in our gifts, and walking in greater freedom in the Lord to be able to effectively and lovingly minister on our outreach phase! I will also be doing the music track where I will learn to minister the presence of God through singing! In the outreach phase, we will be going to the nations where we will step into ministry settings like evangelism, outreach nights, discipleship, worship, and so much more to see the love of Jesus reach the broken hearted and lost. This world and specifically our generation is in desperate need of the love of Jesus to meet them in their pain, brokenness, and anxieties to show them the abundant life in Jesus they were made for as beloved sons and daughters! There is so much freedom and true life in store! It's been a dream of mine for so long to do this school and the Lord has finally opened the door for me to go! I am so excited! I would love for you guys to partner with me in what the Lord is doing through prayer and financial support! Right now I am fundraising and in need of $700 by November 1st and another $7,000 by December 6th! I know these are some big numbers but I believe God already has everything I need and can do it! The $700 is for a direct deposit for the housing I will be staying in while in California and the $7000 is for my lecture and outreach! But prayer is the backbone of all things and this means more to me than anything! If you feel led to send in a one time donation you can do that here! I'm so thankful for this opportunity and to any and all who choose to partner with me prayerfully or financially in this journey the Lord has me on for the sake of others to know Him! Kylie Donate

Missionary Rain Wilcox DONATE Hi everyone!! My name is Rain and over the next six months I’m going to be completing a Discipleship Training School at YWAM Kona! I’ll be serving with a team called Fire and Fragrance Youth Movement whose mission is to see Gen Z come to its full potential. We believe that Gen Z has the power to be world changers, leaders, and healers for the Lord. Our world needs healers who know the extent of God’s love and who deeply care for His people, and YWAM has the heart for equipping young people to live out the calling the Lord has assigned them. We want to fulfill the great commission and make it to where every ear has heard of the good news of Jesus Christ!!! During my DTS I will spend three months in Kona going through a lecture phase to prepare me for the nations. We will hear from speakers all over the world, as we get ready to head there ourselves. We will learn how to say “yes!” to God and to step into the role He sees for us, to leave behind all earthly circumstances and wholeheartedly serve Him and His people. As I go through this process, I can’t wait to see how my own relationship with the Lord will root deeper through discipleship, and experience how I will be able to see more of just how worthy He is of our efforts. I will then spend another three months in outreach, where I will become a disciple, myself. One of the crazy fun things about YWAM is you go into the program with no idea where you’re going to be sent. This means that I have to prepare for any and all environments and people groups. This is probably one of the most exciting but uncertain parts of my DTS, but as I’ve told my parents, I’ve come to peace with the fact that wherever I’m sent is where I am needed the most, and exactly where I’m meant to be. With my Youth Movement team we will go to areas with a large Gen Z presence, full of young people hungry for the Lord. We will help expand their area of reach and build relationships with those in their communities. I am such a believer in the change that Gen Z can bring to this world, and I hope, with their help, to see a radical transformation in America, and in every nation of the world. YWAM wants its young people “To know God, and make Him known.” This is exactly what I plan to do. Through my experience at YWAM, I hope to grow in passion and understanding for the Lords purpose. I want to open my heart to all opportunities, and be able to wholeheartedly say yes to his path. I believe in the transformation that is coming to our world through the power of God, and I hope you can see it too. Please prayerfully consider partnering with me financially to help support the mission that God has called me to!! I would be so blessed to have you as apart of my community through prayer and/or finances!!!! CANT WAIT TO GO TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH FOR LOVE!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Rain Donate

Missionaries Brad & Maddie Owens DONATE Hi! We are Brad and Maddie Owens, full time missionaries with Circuit Riders, a YWAM missions organization that runs training schools, evangelistic outreaches, and catalytic gatherings on over 500 university campuses, reaching over 50 thousand young people at our gatherings each year and many millions more through our media and music. We believe that God is not finished with America or this generation! That’s why at CR our mission is to save the lost, revive the saved, and train them all! Back in 2011, Brad helped to pioneer Circuit Riders with a handful of YWAM'ers from Kona, HI who moved to Huntington Beach, CA with a vision for revival on university campuses in America. Now, after many years of serving as a worship pastor in local churches, we have been asked to rejoin the core leadership team at CR to help shepherd the 200+ full time staff and hundreds students in our training schools. We have a heart to disciple and develop young leaders and equip them for ministry, and the need for spiritual fathers and mothers in CR is overwhelming. At time of writing this, of the 200+ CR staff, only 14 are over the age of 30, and they are all hungry to be discipled. Brad will primarily be pouring into the musician community here, developing worship leaders and bands for our outreach teams as well as helping CR Music to grow and expand its influence globally. Maddie will be helping to lead Brave Love Women, a CR ministry that seeks to activate women in their callings to be missional voices and leaders. Our hearts are burning for the next generation to encounter the love of Jesus Christ and to lay down their lives to follow him. We want to lay down our lives to see this happen, but we need your help! All of the missionaries in YWAM raise 100% of their own support. As a family of five (Jonah, Asher, and Chloe), this is a massive leap of faith, but we are confident this is where the Lord is calling us and we are all in. We are looking to build a team of Kingdom minded prayer warriors who will partner with us in seeing a generation of young people ignited with the power of the Gospel and equipped to go and make disciples of all nations! Would you prayerfully consider investing in us by becoming a monthly partner both in prayer and financial giving? We would be thrilled to have you on our team! - The Owens Family For more information about Circuit Riders visit our website at http://circuitriders.com Donate

Missionary Samantha Bertrand DONATE Hey! My name is Samantha and I am a full-time missionary at YWAM Gold Coast in Australia! The Lord has already done so much with my time here and I am so excited to see Him transform more hearts and be a part of the Great Commission I’m from Kalamazoo Michigan in the USA and in January of 2024 I decided to join YWAM to do a DTS. YWAM (Youth With A Mission) is a movement that is dedicated to seeing young people all over the world "know God, and make God known". Growing up I would've called myself Christian, but I was so far from knowing God. My story is one of much redemption and reconciliation, the Lord saved me when I was farthest from Him so why would I not give my life to Him?. When I joined my DTS (Discipleship Training School) in YWAM I had no idea what I was doing or where I was going, but now being on the other side - I can tell you it has RADICALLY changed my life. I decided to join the YWAM GC staff team because I have such a heart for discipleship. I want to use my story and relationship with the Lord to tell others that the kingdom is here and we are made to live in it TODAY! I know it may not make sense to everyone but as a full-time missionary, I live fully off of support. I am hoping to raise at least $800 US per month to cover rent, groceries, insurance, visas, vehicle and other costs that come up in life. Why should you partner with me? There is a need in our hearts to know more than just that God "exists". Matthew 9:35-38 - "And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” ^^^ This is why. He had compassion on them, the harvest IS READY and there aren't enough laborers. I am so grateful for all of the prayers over my life and ask that you please continue to keep me and this mission in your prayers. If you feel called to help support me financially in my mission I would be so grateful for your donations! Thank you for taking the time to read, I LOVE YOU! - Samantha Donate

Missionary Leah SyCip DONATE Hello friends! My name is Leah, and this fall I am going to be attending Circuit Rider's Discipleship Training School in Huntington Beach! After graduating from high school last year and finishing one year of college, I have decided to take a gap year to grow in my faith and to ultimately follow Jesus! Circuit Riders is a ministry focused on reaching this generation with the message of Jesus. Their goal is to help people step into their calling and become equipped to share the good news with those who don't yet know! I am passionate about seeing my generation encounter Jesus and live in the hope and freedom He gives! In a world filled with so much brokenness, I hope I can be used as the hands and feet of Jesus in this next season!! I've seen Jesus show up in my life in incredible and personal ways, and I want to share the love and mercy He gives so freely. Starting the end of September, I will officially be a full-time missionary, which means I will be giving my full attention to the mission of sharing the gospel. While I am working as much as I can now, I am hoping to have the assistance of financial partners while I am away. I am aiming to raise between $13,000-$14,000 to cover training, transportation and other living costs. I am planning to cover about 1/3 of that myself, but that still leaves around $9,000 that I need to raise. If you feel led, please consider partnering with me in the mission of sharing the gospel to this generation by financially supporting me. Any donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated, but most of all, I would love your prayers as I step into this new season! Thank you for all your support!!! Leah SyCip <3 Donate

Missionary Jamie Garcia DONATE Hi! I’m Jamie Garcia, and I am a full-time missionary with YWAM, Circuit Riders in Huntington Beach, California! Circuit Riders is a non-profit mission organization empowered by Youth With A Mission. Our calling at Circuit Riders is to save the lost, revive the saved, and trained them all. We do this by reaching hundreds of University campuses in America, through evangelistic outreaches and hosting events where we gather to worship, share the message of love of Jesus, and teach students to be catalysts in their spheres of influence! Our goal is to inspire a generation to love like Jesus! I’ll be doing the fall discipleship training school from Circuit Riders to study the Word, get trained to lead worship, and share the Gospel! I can’t wait to see identity restored, my generation healed, free, and know how important they are to Jesus! I believe revival is here and God is raising up a remnant of young people on fire for Him. I couldn’t be more excited! Would you consider partnering with me in my journey, both financially and through prayer as I begin this season of life God had called me? Jamie Donate

Missionary Milena Aguilera Lopez DONATE Hi! My name is Milena Aguilera! I am 20 years old currently serving in Asia, Hong Kong with YWAM Gateway! I met my boyfriend (Agustin) here and we feel that God is calling us to stay in Hong Kong and from here mobilize to different countries in Asia. How did I get to missions? I was born in Puerto Rico and raised in YWAM Argentina. My family including my parents: Julio (Argentine) and Sheila (Puerto Rican), and my siblings: Briana and Santiago (Both Argentine), served as a missionary family full time in Argentina but later in 2014 God called us to move to Puerto Rico to start a YWAM base. So, we moved to Puerto Rico, the country I was born in, but didn’t know that much about and later ending up loving. We continue to serve the Lord, trusting in Him for everything. We have a lot of opportunities to serve the elderly, kids, youth and families and that is when I realized I want to continue to share God’s word and show it in a practical way, not just words. Why Hong Kong? When I turned 18, I wanted to do my DTS (Discipleship Training School) but I didn’t know where. That year my Godmother (she serves in HK with her husband and children) came to visit us and told me everything about YWAM in HK. In the beginning it was a NO for me, I was so scared and it was really far away from Puerto Rico. But as I prayed I felt God telling me more and more to go to Hong Kong. So suddenly I felt peace and excitement. That is when I decided to go. Now being here, I realize that people really need God. Some people have never heard about Jesus! And a LOT of them worship their ancestors. I know God sent me here to be a difference and for people to know Him! What I am planning to do in Hong Kong? Now with my boyfriend Agustin we feel really called to be here in Hong Kong. This is really a Gateway for all Asia and it is really easy to enter other countries. God is constantly reminding us that worship brings a breakthrough and that is what we want to continue to do, bring people closer to God with our songs and worship. Not only that, we also feel called to work with new generations (Babies, Children, Youth, Families). The key of transforming a nation is through them! Also, we want to have our own missionary family in a near future! So, we hope to continue to make Jesus known! Until the ends of the earth! Milena Donate
