Missionary Rene Carver DONATE Hey everyone! My name is Rene Carver, and I’m excited to share that I will be graduating from Liberty University this May! As I step into God’s next chapter for my life, I’m thrilled to announce that this Fall (2025), I will be joining the Circuit Riders movement as a missionary. Circuit Riders, a movement birthed out of YWAM, is passionate about seeing the next generation radically transformed by God’s love. Their mission is to equip young people with the tools and skills they need to share the gospel and make a lasting impact. The Circuit Riders Discipleship Training School (DTS) has two key phases: Lecture Phase and Outreach Phase. During the Lecture Phase, I will receive intense teaching and training in ministry, leadership, and how to effectively share the gospel. This will equip me with the spiritual, emotional, and practical tools to be an impactful leader in the kingdom. The Outreach Phase will then take me to various locations where I will apply everything I've learned, sharing the love of God with others in real-world settings! As I prepare for this exciting journey, I want to invite you to partner with me in two key ways: through prayer and financial support. This mission will require both, and your support would mean the world to me. If you feel led to pray for me or contribute financially, I’d be deeply grateful. Together, we can make a real difference in reaching young people with the love of Christ. I’m looking forward to being trained in ministry and leadership as I prepare to serve and lead in this incredible movement. God is doing amazing things, and I can’t wait to be part of it!

Missionary Becca Culver DONATE Hello, my name is Becca! I am a missionary associated with Fire and Fragrance, YWAM. I am currently at home support raising to launch full time to Japan in 2027! As well as a frontlines mission school in September at the YWAM KONA base. My first missions’ trip was to South Africa 2024 with Upperroom partnered with Fire and Fragrance and during that time God revealed to me what was really important in my life. I felt more at home in a country I had never been to, singing in languages I didn’t know in my head but my heart understood. God showed me all these memories and dreams I’d had throughout my life but somehow, they finally made sense. They finally all fell into place, and my life began to shape out in a way that I could have never imagined, God calling little me to travel to the hardest, darkest and least reached places with the testimony of hope that saved my life. The testimony of how Jesus came to be born, live, sacrifice and die for me. I feel called to reach all forms of poverty: Emotional, Spiritual, Financial, Relational, Economical. Whether that brings me to the richest people of great influence or the people struggling to put food on the table, Jesus died for both extremes! Over the last two years I’ve spent time in 7 different countries, completed a discipleship training school in Kona, a Bible overview school in Nepal and spent 3 months in Turkey and Cyprus. In the midst of last year God gave me the opportunity to join in on a vision trip to Japan. After such a long time of Japan being on my heart but not understanding what it meant, my feet were on the ground for 2 weeks. From the moment I set foot in Japan I felt at peace. I felt at home. I felt more deeply in love with each person I met, the food I ate, every new place I visited as well as the beautiful team I went with. The first wave is moving to Japan this year and I plan to move next year with the second wave. Some avenues we plan to do ministry through in Japan are: Recreational sports, coffee shops, media, photography, dance and literature. Would you be willing to partner with me financially to help launch me to Japan? My goal is to raise $22-25,000 to cover training, travel, moving and launch costs. As well as $2,000 monthly support needed before I launch to support me as I do full time ministry. Becca Donate

Missionary Bennett Common DONATE Hi friends, I’m Bennett! In 2025, I completed my Discipleship Training School with Fire & Fragrance in Nashville, Tennessee. During those five months, I spent three months being trained and equipped in evangelism, discipleship, and living a lifestyle fully surrendered to Jesus, followed by two months on outreach in South Africa where I was able to actively share the gospel and serve alongside local ministries and churches. Fire & Fragrance is a missions movement focused on equipping and sending young people to bring the gospel to the nations. Over the last several months, the Lord has deeply transformed my life — showing me more of His nature and character, teaching me who I am as His daughter, and inviting me to partner with Him in the Great Commission.
 For the past four years, it has been my joy to serve in youth ministry in Las Vegas, and now the Lord is leading me into a new season of missions. In July, I’ll be moving to Nashville to staff with Fire & Fragrance and help disciple students who come through FFX (Fire & Fragrance Experience program). Along with discipling students, I’ll also be partnering with the base in college campus evangelism and local ministry opportunities. The gospel must go forth in Nashville just as much as the nations!
 OBEDIENCE IS THE FRUIT OF A HEART MADLY IN LOVE!! As I step into full-time missions, I’m building a team of people who want to partner with what God is doing in this season — through prayer and financial support. If you feel led, I would love for you to prayerfully consider partnering with me — 1. Prayer & Intercession Please pray:
 • For boldness and obedience to whatever the Lord asks
 • For deeper intimacy and hunger for Jesus
 • That people would encounter the Father’s love through my life
 • For strength, grace, and longevity in ministry 2. Financial Support
 I am currently raising $2,500/month to help cover living, travel, and ministry expenses while serving full time with Fire & Fragrance. I’m especially looking for monthly supporters — whether that’s $15, $50, $100, or any amount the Lord places on your heart. Thank you in advance for believing in me and what the Lord wants to do through my life. Would love to grab coffee or chat more if you have any questions! Xo,

Missionary Ntombi Mbunje DONATE Hello friends My name is Ntombi Mbunje currently living in South Africa. Super excited to share this with you. I recently finished my Discipleship Training School (DTS) with Fire & Fragrance South Africa. Which is one of the branches of YWAM. The Lord has been so good and so intentional. Before I gave my life to Christ, there was nothing in this world that I felt was my calling. I would get asked what my passion is and I could not answer because nothing moved my heart. Until I gave my life to Jesus, everything I felt just kept being broken down and the Lord just revealing things to me that I never imagined. Did my DTS early in 2025 February, just to mainly focus on God and getting to know Him as a Father. I then slowly started to spend more time in the Word more than I used to (His love). The time He took to break things off of my life and the gentleness there of was like nothing I have ever seen. During this time, the Lord just kept reminding me how the Word transforms a person. How He gently shows Himself in the scriptures and how He speaks, I was mesmerized by how intentional He is. I wanted to dig deep, see the depth of His heart and get to experience the love story that we get to have. I am about to do a second school called Discipleship Bible School (DBS) which is a 3 month school where we get to dive deep in the Word from Genesis to Revelations. With this school I hope to meet the Lord in a new way and get to fall I love with the Word. I can then hopefully show someone else how He reveals Himself in the Word. If you would love to partner with me financially on a once off donation or a monthly donation, or how ever you would like to give please message me or send me an email, I would love to get to know you and be able to share my heart/future and what the Lord says with you. If you would like to join my prayer group please also message me, I would appreciate it so much. The Word of the Lord is true and it changes lives. Be blessed. Ntombi Donate

Missionary Emily Buckwalter DONATE Hi, my name is Emily! After graduating high school in 2023, I decided to do a Discipleship Training School with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). At the time, I simply wanted to know God better, but I found that the more I discovered God's love, the more I wanted others to know Him too! This changed the entire trajectory of my life! Though I grew up in the church and loved Jesus deeply, I found myself hungry for a Christianity beyond more than just myself. The apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 1:27, “Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ”. Upon reflecting on this, the Lord clarified what he’d been weighing upon my heart since my DTS. Did you know 60,000 people die every day without the opportunity to even hear Jesus’s name? I’ve realized I can no longer sit passively with this number, but am propelled to GO, knowing Jesus died for each person who wakes up to a purposeless life without Him. I cannot say I’d be living “worthy of the gospel” unless I pursue His calling to missions! As I’ve been praying into where the Lord is leading me long term, I feel He’s given me a heart for Latin America. In the next couple months, I’ll begin making the transition to be a full time missionary serving with YWAM! As a missionary, I will depend on the generosity of others to make a living. Would you consider being a part of the Great Commission by supporting me financially? Emily Donate

Missionary Katya MacFarlane DONATE Hi, I’m Katya MacFarlane! I’m passionate about seeing women restored to all God created them to be through discovering their identity in Christ. In my own life, I have seen God restore and heal me through discovering my identity in Christ, intentionally pursuing the presence of God, and walking in godly community. I love seeing my own testimony multiplied in those around me. I specifically feel called to unreached nations! These are with a majority of the population is unreached with the good news of Jesus, meaning less 2% of the population is Christian and there is not a church large enough to reach the rest of the population, and many times not a Bible in their language. In 2024, I left to do a Discipleship Training School with YWAM for 6 months in the Himalayas, trekking and sharing the gospel in remote villages and cities, and I plan to return soon to continue my calling to see restoration among women in unreached nations. I know the Lord will send me to many nations in the future, and I am excited that the first step is Nepal! As I prep to move long term overseas, I am pioneering a women’s discipleship house in St. Paul, Minnesota where we are cultivating an emotionally safe living space for intentional healing to see women reconciled and restored with God. Wherever I am, I am committed to seeing women reconciled to all they were created to be through community and discipleship, and I believe in the fullness of healing first rooted in relationship with Jesus! Join me in prayer for what God is doing! Your monthly support or one-time gift is a joy to receive, and goes to support living, ministry, and travel expenses. I’m asking for monthly commitments of $20, $50, $100, or any amount the Lord puts on your heart. Thank you for your prayers and support on this journey!

Missionaries Q Family DONATE My name is Yass, married to Jess and we have a son named Levi. I was born in North Africa and from a muslim background. My life was radically changed when I met the Messiah Jesus in Turkey through a team from YWAM. I had a strong call from the Lord over my life to be in missions so I served with YWAM in Turkey as a volunteer for almost two years, then I did my Discipleship Training School in Egypt at the end 2019 and beginning of 2020. In Turkey I met my wife who was a missionary kid and who served with YWAM as well for a few years. In my DTS, the Lord lead me clearly to go work between Spain and North Africa to bring reconciliation and make a way for God's Kingdom to reach my people. In August of 2021 my wife and I joined the YWAM North Africa centre in Southern Spain. We are currently working on reaching and discipling North Africans in Spain, equipping workers that are going to North Africa for long or short term missions, training and also going on a couple of trips a year to the region in North Africa to encourage and equip the local Church and to serve the long term workers. We invite you to be part of what the Lord is doing in North Africa and Southern Spain by sowing a seed in our ministry and by joining our financial support team. Q family Donate

Missionary Michael Karastanov DONATE Hello everyone! My name is Michael A Karastanov, and I am currently serving in Vanuatu, Espiritu Santo Island! The Lord has called me into the fields of Vanuatu with the God Will Provide Vanuatu Organization to spread the Gospel and be the light wherever I go, when I was 18 years old. In the fall of 2022, I had a chance to go to a Missionary school called God Will Provide Sacramento in California USA. I was able to start serving here in Vanuatu in January of 2023. The Lord has taught me many things being here. Our ministry here consists of many things. Such as discipleship, construction, and outreaches. This country has already heard the Gospel before. But a lot of this country is unengaged. Meaning that there is no Christian foundation here in many parts of Vanuatu. So, we take time and get to know the people and the culture and try to build bridges between us and them. As for construction, we are currently building a boarding school in the heart of Santo, which is the bush (jungle). There was a clinic built in the bush by our organization a couple years back, partnering with Santo Bush Missions. But now, this place desires a school for all the tribal children where they can hear the Gospel, maybe even for the first time. We also focus on bridge building in the bush because there are many unengaged tribes in the jungles of Santo. And being in the heart of Santo, it has given us a chance to start reaching all the surrounding tribes. We do kid’s programs as well, where we bring the Bible to life for the kids. But most importantly, we are here sharing the Gospel from taxi drivers to tribal people deep in the jungles. We are asking that you may keep us in prayer support as we are on the frontlines of a Spiritual battle of light and darkness. If it is on your heart to support us financially and be a part of the mission we have here, you can do that by supporting us with either one-time or monthly donations. The money will be going towards the monthly rent we pay for the electricity, water, and food. It will also go for transport fees as we do go to different parts of Santo and sometimes even to different islands. Thank you very much for taking the time to read about our ministry here in Vanuatu! God’s blessings to you! Michael Donate

MISSIONARY Tychon Family DONATE Trevor and Jana Tychon have been ministering in Uganda since 2001 with the simple desire to positively impact the country. Upon arrival, Trevor and Jana partnered with Ugandan pastors and leaders who also yearned to see their country transformed. As they learned how to do things “the African way”, Trevor and Jana built a team of foreigners and Ugandans to reach out to the northern regions. The Connect Africa team began developing inexpensive and sustainable technologies that could be built by the very people who needed them most. Twelve years later, along with their sons Jayden and Justin, they have expanded their ministry to include Kenya, Tanzania and Congo. Connect Africa Ministries now has four resource centers in Uganda and two in Kenya. Each center provides training and promotes the use of BioSand Water filters, Rainwater Harvesting, Interlocking Stabilized Soil Block Construction, EcoSan Toilets, Rocket Stoves and Permaculture. The Tychon Family continue to live and dedicate their lives to finding sustainable ways to meet the needs of the poor and minister the love of Jesus Christ in practical ways to the people of Africa. Thank you for your prayers and continued financial support of the Tychon Family in Uganda. Donate
