Missionary Anna Peterson DONATE Hi! If you're here, you probably already know me but if not, I'm Anna Peterson and I'm a missionary! Ever since I was a little girl I've known I've wanted to be a missionary, since then God has gripped my heart that everyone would know Jesus and His loving kindness. Growing up I was a born and bread ministry kid, day in and day out I practically lived at the church so whenever my family got deeply hurt by the very thing that I thought was home, my whole world came crashing down.I assumed that if the church didn’t love them then God must not and that’s when I went head first into whatever the world had to offer me. Lo and behold all I found was that everything the world had to offer was a quick fix with a quick turn around and it all lead to me being more ashamed, addicted and depressed, turns out numbing can only go so far. After a few years of me trying it all on my own, I became suicidal and I knew if God was really real, He would be the only thing that could save me.Luckily my mom sent me to summer camp and that’s where everything changed for me, God met me in the middle of my mess, He redefined what relationship looks like with Him and I found the freedom and love that I had craved for my entire life. After that I couldn’t be silenced, I had to tell anyone and everyone I knew about Jesus and that’s when God punted me into the mission field.From 14-17 I went to 10 countries all for missions and not a dime of it was from my parents, all of it came from supporters and by the grace of God, from then on I knew that this really was what I was made for. At 19, God called me to Circuit Riders and three years later im still serving and running with them. In the past 3 years my eyes have been opened to the very heart of God to my generation. I’ve seen blind eyes open, mass salvation on Ivy leagues, I’ve had the privilege to personally walk, train, and disciple some pretty amazing leaders on these college campuses across America. I truly believe my generation is on the cusp of a Jesus awakening, Christianity for the last 10 years was on a decline but as of this year, it is on the rise and that’s because young people are radically encountering Jesus and His love.In places where people have only known hopelessness, heaviness, and purposelessness, people are finding the very God who made them and are finding what they were made for. With that being said my role in CR has been quickly advancing in leadership and I now have the privilege of leading the NYC region pastorally and logistically. This last year in NYC we saw over 202 salvations and 14 healings and there is continued and sustained movement on these campuses. My Role Practically.Since I am a apart of a YWAM missional community we host training schools called DTS ( Discipleship Train Schools ) to grow and develop leaders from all around the world so that they can then apply those skills to wherever God calls them, whether it be the marketplace, a local church, or the mission field.So while I am planning tour and in contact with college students, we also have over 200 leaders in California getting training for our upcoming tours that I get the privilege to plan. From Aug-Dec we onboard college students on their campuses who are believing God for revival, we then hop on bi-weekly zoom calls to disciple, train, and mentor those students, in October we then visit our college students to invest in them relationally as well as host prayer gatherings and evangelism trainings for the upcoming Tour starting in JAN. In Jan we start our 8 week long Carry the love tours where we do campus wide events that unify all the Christian clubs on the campuses we are on and create a welcoming space for the lost to come and encounter Jesus’s love, not just that, but we provide trainings and empowerment to create long lasting effect on the campuses we are on. That’s a long story short of who I am and what I get to do, there so much more to all that goes into it but if you’d like to know more I’d love to connect personally over a call or coffee to also get to know you and what your heart burns to see God do. May the lamb receive the reward of His suffering! Love you, Anna. Donate

Missionary Weber Sun DONATE We are the Weber family, originally from China, currently engaged in cross-cultural missions in the Philippines. Since arriving in the Philippines, we have deeply felt the local young people's love for music and witnessed their deep longing for meaning and truth. We believe that music can be a bridge to spread the gospel and build relationships. In schools, churches, and communities, we introduce young people to the love of Jesus Christ through music classes, worship sharing, and youth gatherings. Many, inspired by a song or a lyric, have begun to listen to the gospel and open their hearts. We have witnessed God's miraculous work in their lives and have deeply felt His presence. Our vision is to touch hearts through music, enabling young people to understand and experience the truth of the gospel. However, we also clearly understand that the gift of music alone is not enough. To more fully respond to the Lord's calling, we are preparing to enter a theological training phase, systematically studying biblical truth and cross-cultural missions courses. This will enable us to more effectively pastor young people, lead teams, and plant a solid foundation of faith in different cultures. "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations...teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you." —Matthew 28:19-20 May the Lord remember every brother and sister who walks with us. May His kingdom expand even further because of our unity. With the Lord's love and gratitude, The Weber Family Donate

Missionary Donna & Renz Tormen DONATE Donna and Renz Tormen are passionate believers in Christ with a heart to share His love wherever He leads. From serving in their home church and workplaces to stepping into cultural spaces like the Midwest regional Burning Man event, where there is darkness on all fronts, their mission is simple: to help people realize thier full identity in Christ and to bring the hope of Jesus to those who need Him most. Most recently, Donna traveled to Thailand on an impact trip to pray with and support survivors of human trafficking. While there, the Holy Spirit moved her to return for a longer period to serve, to learn, and to bring back valuable knowledge and resources that can help combat human trafficking here at home. On this upcoming trip, she will join teams serving in the mountains of Chiang Mai and surrounding rural border towns. Their work will include healthcare, education, vocational training, and using her professional counseling skills to create safe places where survivors can experience the healing love of Jesus. The long-term vision is to return equipped to share resources with organizations in the U.S.—educating first responders, legal teams, educators, and the wider community—so that together we can break the cycle of human trafficking. Meanwhile, Renz will be using his skills in construction, problem solving and organization to serve as a project lead, helping repair and strengthen the infrastructure at Whispering Willow. This ministry hub includes housing, training and education centers, and a church building—all in need of repairs to better serve the people who rely on them. To make this mission possible, Donna and Renz are seeking support both financially and through prayer. Contributions will go toward travel, housing, food, and essential ministry supplies such as construction materials, tools, and educational resources. Your partnership—through giving and prayer—will help decrease violence against the vulnerable while increasing the reach of Jesus’ love to those who need it most. Facts about Human Trafficking “Human Trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring or receipt of people through force, fraud or deception, with the aim of exploiting them for profit. Men, women and children of all ages and from all backgrounds can become victims of this crime, which occurs in every region of the world. The traffickers often use violence or fraudulent employment agencies and fake promises of education and job opportunities to trick and coerce their victims.” (UNODC) Donate

Missionary Jim Brown DONATE Our calling is always been to follow the great commission in making disciples and not just making them but the the later part of the verse is to teach them to obey his commands. My wife and I have always felt the call to walk with young adults discipling them in a holistic manner teaching them not just biblical things but guiding them in all aspects of life. No matter where God has us as our assignment changes our calling never does. We are always gathering young people around our table and walking with them regularly. Jim Donate

MISSIONARY Julia Higginbotham DONATE Hello! My name is Julia, and I am a full-time missionary seeking to gather people wherever I can for the sake of Jesus. I am currently partnering with a local church in Rhode Island called Generation Church. I will be diving deeper into theological understanding, worship leading, discipling, and being discipled, as well as using my gifts to glorify the Lord through the church. I will be working with them to pioneer a college campus ministry at the University of Rhode Island while making connections and friends by working part time at a local coffee shop.

Missionary Isaac Smith DONATE Hello! Isaac Smith here and I’m staffing in YWAM! Right after graduating high school, God called me to YWAM(Youth With A Mission). He placed the next generation of North Korea in my heart. Throughout DTS (Discipleship Training School), God continued to confirm this calling through seminars, friends, and pastors. He allowed me to see the beauty not only of North Korea but of Korea as a whole. Many speakers shared what the Lord had placed on their hearts. They spoke about how we are all part of the reunification and the role foreigners play in the Korean church, how America will stand behind the Korean church as a source of support. DTS is a six-month period spent with a group of like-minded brothers and sisters, chasing after who God is and striving to be disciples of Christ. Throughout this time, God reveals so much as you immerse yourself in His kingdom's culture. The first thing God revealed to me was that being His disciple is a “one day at a time” adventure. A mindset He wanted to correct in me was the idea of “one and done.” I believed that once you surrender your doubts, worries, and ambitions into His hands, you would never face them again. But every day, He reminded me—and still reminds me—that I must lay everything I have at His feet daily. This is what it means to be a disciple of Christ. On days when I failed to do this, I felt distant, as if His voice was behind a wall. So I continuously die to my old self, following Jesus wherever He is guiding me—hanging my old clothes on the cross and putting on the robes He has prepared for me. Another key lesson He wanted to instill in me was the joy found in community and relationships. Before DTS, the enemy planted a lie in my mind that I was a burden to others and that being alone was where I belonged. But in the first week of DTS, our speaker, the leader of our DTS, Myungsook Nam, spoke on exactly that—joy in community and relationships. Her main point was that joy from the Lord is expressed through those around us; therefore, joy is found in relationships—not only with God but also with other disciples of Christ. Through these people, whom I can now call my new family, He has shown me immense love and joy. Now, as DTS comes to an end, I am left with a gratitude I cannot fully express. God called me to Korea but for the first three weeks, I had no clue why I was in Korea. I wrestled with doubt and reconsideration during that time. At the height of this doubt, during the third week, our school was invited to attend a seminar called The One Day Gathering. I was hesitant to go, as we had a book report due and I was working on a video for the DTS. However, one of the staff members came to me and suggested I attend. Curious, I asked for more details and learned that the seminar was a brief introduction to the North Korean ministry happening around us. The staff member shared that when he attended the same event last year, he had little interest in this ministry, but after hearing about what was happening in North Korea and how people were responding, God tugged on his heartstrings and called him deeper into his mission for North Korea. So, I decided to go and even convinced a few other students to join me. Through this seminar and the testimonies of speakers who had experienced North Korea first hand—including those who had escaped—God opened my eyes to my purpose in this season in Korea. My immediate thought was, How do I stay in Korea? God used my lifelong love for Northeast Asia and the deep-rooted relationships I had built within the school to call me to staff at the base in Gadeok. This was an unmistakable calling from God that I could not ignore. With this revelation, I spoke to other staff members about my heart for North Korea, and they affirmed my calling to Korea—to be part of the reunification of the Korean Church and One Korea. Just to introduce you to the base in Korea—the exact location is in Busan, Korea, in Gadeok. If you don’t know what YWAM is, it stands for Youth With A Mission, first established in 1960 by Loren Cunningham and his wife, Darlene Cunningham. There are over 1,200 bases in more than 180 countries. Each base organizes schools referred to as DTSs (Discipleship Training Schools), usually lasting around six months. Depending on the size of the base, they may run multiple DTSs at once, each with a different central focus. Mine was i2i (Intimacy to Impact)—designed to develop a personal relationship with God in order to make an impact on the world. A DTS typically consists of three months of lectures and discipleship, followed by three months of outreach. The outreach locations vary for each DTS as they are guided by the Lord. Isaac Donate

MISSIONARY Moriah Horn DONATE I am a missionary with YWAM Borgen in the North of Norway, but am originally from Upstate New York. (We are the most northern YWAM base in the world!) I first came to Borgen as a student in 2015, and during that time God placed the youth here on my heart. My next step was to receive training and raise support so that I would be able to come and properly invest in the youth. Between 2016-2018 I completed a PCYM (Principles of Child and Youth Ministry) school and had an internship with a YWAM base in Sweden that was working with Kings Kids, a family and youth ministry. There I gained more hands-on experience to round out what I had learned through PCYM. Finally, after much waiting on Visas and seeking God for my next steps it was time to move back to Norway in January 2019. Since then, I have been building relationships and laying foundations for a youth ministry, meeting with youth, spending time with them, getting to know them, and hearing them out, all the while telling them about God and showing His love at every opportunity. I am so blessed to be working with these teens and seeing where God takes them in their lives and walk with Him.
