John Krause DONATE After enduring many traumatic events in life, I (John) was lost with no purpose for many years. What I thought was a mess was actually God preparing me to carry a message. After forty years being in the wilderness, God is calling me to share that message of hope with others who are at a similar place that I once was. Having this lived experience and seeing God do miraculous things in my life is nothing short of a miracle. God strategically placed many great men and women in my life that pointed me to Christ and taught me very valuable lessons and I want to consolidate all that I've learned and teach others. As I carry this message of hope and transformation, I want to invite you to partner with me financially to support our mission at Starting Point by simply loving God and loving people. Love is an action word and I've been convicted that it's time to take action. I can no longer sit on the sidelines as I watch other people struggling with the same struggles I once had when I know that I can help them. As the words of Jesus penetrate my heart, it makes it harder to look the other way as people suffer or have basic needs that I can meet. Matthew 10:42 "And if you give even a cup of cold water to one of the least of my followers, you will surely be rewarded." We can play a role in helping others; it's not always the big things, it can be the simple, seemingly small things that we so easily take for granted that will express the love of Christ and be the encouragement that can radically change their life. One changed life often times impacts the lives of many others, breaking generational curses and brokenness. Please come alongside my family and I as we embark on this journey. God has planted this seed in our hearts and we believe now is the time to water it and watch it grow. We need your support in this; financially, prayerfully, and through encouragement. If you have any questions, please contact me directly at john@bighousebeans.com or (925) 339-8155. John Donate

Missionary Jamie & Natalie McLeod DONATE Hi Friends, We are Jamie & Natalie McLeod and our kids Hudson & Ariella. We live in the ski resort town of Mammoth Lakes, California. We pastor a little church called 'Lighthouse' that consists mostly of young adventurers who ski/snowboard, climb, hike the John Muir Trail, and any other extreme sport possible. We also are part of a global movement based out of our Church in Mammoth Lakes. We help to oversee and lead leaders all over the world. Currently we have a church full of young people who are here for either the ski season and work at the ski resort, or are with us for the summer season and work for the fire crews, bike park, etc.. Many of these people don't know the Lord yet, or have fallen away and are very hesitantly moving back toward a relationship with Jesus. It's beautiful to get to lead them into the arms of Jesus no matter where they are in life. Lighthouse is also a global movement, part of our work with the global movement is expansion/church planting. We get to meet up with leaders and future leaders all over the world and help them find a way to start Lighthouse Churches in ski resorts and remote places where many are unreached by the gospel. It is always amazing to experience the same heart of adventure and excitement as well as the deep soul-searching in each of these places. They might be the wealthiest places in the world, but they have some of the poorest people working there, as well as some of the people with the greatest need for the Lord. Ski resorts often provide a very unique culture. We invite you to join us on this adventure! Jamie & Natalie McLeod Donate

Missionary Maryke Koen DONATE Hi! My name is Maryke Koen and I am a full time missionary with the Catalyst Movement. I recently did my DTS with YWAM Fire & Fragrance in Potchefstroom South Africa after I finished my degree in Sport Science. After doing my DTS the Lord came so gently and showed me that I should go into full time ministry. My heart burns for Gen Z and to see the next generation saved wholeheartedly and running after Jesus. We cannot find a group of teenagers that gathers on a weekly basis with more than 500 members in South Africa. Thus, the natural conclusion is that churches all around SA are not effectively reaching the next generation. In our group of churches, we have 564 youth in 35 churches scattered across SA. In our town of Paarl, we have 40,000 youth (high school students), but no more than 500 are engaged in active youth groups. Statistics indicate that they tend to drift away from their faith and the church during their teenage years. Our goal as catalysts is to go into schools, evangelise and share the gospel and start building relationships within schools. Would you prayerfully consider in partnering with me in prayer and financially to see the next generation of South Africa getting saved? Thanks! :) Maryke Donate

Missionary Abby DONATE Hello, my name is Abby and I am a missionary with Youth With A Mission. YWAM is an international interdenominational organization with a vision of sending young missionaries from every nation to every nation as stated in Mark 16:15. I have the honor of being a part of the Fire and Fragrance extreme places ministry, which has a focus on worship and intercessory prayer as well as bringing the fire of God into the nations. I am currently on a scouting team in Asia, modeled off of Numbers 13! If you have a passion for unreached people groups and everyone having the opportunity to hear the gospel, please prayerfully consider making a monthly commitment to support me financially. If you cannot make a monthly commitment a one time donation is just as appreciated. Please keep me in your prayers as I go to the ends of the earth for love, thank you! Donate

Missionary Brianna Arroyo DONATE Hi! My name is Bri and Jesus has completely transformed my life! I have truly been met with the love of God and the true power of the gospel! I have a heart to see those that are unreached with the gospel saved and met with the same love of God that changed my whole life and equip them to walk out in the identity God has created them to be! As Christians we are called to go out and reach people with the Gospel training and baptizing them!! [Matthew 28:19-20] By partnering with me financially, you're not just helping me fulfill my calling; you're actively playing a part in transforming lives. So many people are currently unreached by the Gospel and what the term "unreached" means is not that these people are hearing the gospel and rejecting it but it’s that they’ve never even had the chance to hear about the name of Jesus because no one around them knows about him! Without a step of action that means that these people will live and die without ever hearing the gospel! I'm so excited to have the opportunity to reach the unreached with the gospel! I will be serving in the nation of Taiwan by staffing a ministry called "Youth With A Mission". Here I will be helping teach in local churches and serve local pastors while also taking classes to learn the local's native language to be able to build relationships rooted and founded with the gospel! 90% of Taiwan does not follow Jesus or hasn't heard the gospel. I am so excited to devote time to this nation and really believe for God to transform and move in a mighty way. The harvest is plentiful where the Lord is!! [Matthew 9:37] I have surrendered and dedicated my life to sharing the Good News of Jesus and I would love it if you would join me in seeing how people's lives are transformed by this Good News. Help partner with me in teaching people about the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ! This isn't just about money. It's about the power of unity, the strength of community, and the impact we can create together as a church body. May the Lord bless you and keep you for your continuous generosity!! Bri Donate

Missionary Sarah Springer DONATE Hi everyone! My name is Sarah, I am 20 years old and I am a missionary with YWAM Kona! After graduating high school in 2023 I felt the Lord inviting me to attend a Discipleship Training School with YWAM called Fire and Fragrance. During my DTS I learned about Gods character and nations, personal relationship with God, prayer and worship, Gods heart for the nations, and so much more. Then I had the honor to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the nations of South Korea and Japan for 3 months! After my DTS I knew my time with Fire and Fragrance was not finished and now I am on staff with them discipling girls, leading a room of students, planning a 3 month outreach to another country, and then leading the outreach! There are still 3.4 billion people who have never heard the name of Jesus around the world. And I feel God is calling me to take His name to these unreached people (Matthew 28:18-20). I am so thankful to the Lord for this opportunity to partner with Him. If you would like to partner with me financially I would be so grateful for your support. Thank you always for your prayers and encouraging words. Sarah Donate

Missionary Madison Wineinger DONATE Hi! My name is Madison Wineinger and I am a full time missionary with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) Nashville. I have the honor to be a part of what God is doing locally in Nashville, TN. While Nashville may be my home base, I will still be traveling all over the world to share the gospel. I need people to partner with me from Nashville to the nations! If you want to hear a bit of my heart you can email me at madisonwineinger@gmail.com ! Madison Donate

Missionary Macie McCall DONATE Hi friends! My name is Macie McCall, and I am a full time missionary on staff at YWAM Queenstown, New Zealand. Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is an international movement of Christians focused on knowing God and making Him known, aiming to present Jesus to all generations, mobilize believers, and fulfill the Great Commission. In Queenstown we prioritize the discipling of each other, hearing God's voice, and leaning into worship to glorify God. I have been with YWAM since July 2025. First as a student at a Disciple Training School, and now as a staff member. With YWAM I have gotten the opportunity to do mission work in Papua New Guinea, spreading the great love and grace of Jesus to many remote villages in New Britain. My outreach team got the chance to share countless sermons and testimonies, witness many healings from the Holy Spirit, and support locals in baptism. Within Queenstown I get the privilege of ministering to locals and tourists alike through evangelism, community events, and church. It has been beautiful to learn what it means to be a missionary in all different settings. As a part of YWAM staff I work mainly in the hospitality department, where I get to be intentional in care for students and staff, and have a special passion to make guests/speakers feel seen, welcomed, and beloved. It is a true joy to serve on this team. I also get the chance to work closely with students in the preparation of their students outreach - preparing them to face new cultures and ministry types. I will soon be stepping into a role of school staffing a Discipleship Training Program, and will get the change to walk closely as they know God more. Additionally, I will lead a team of students on a 2 month outreach. As I step into new waters of what a life completely devoted to Jesus looks like, I am learning to count on God as my ultimate provider. I trust that as he calls me into full-time ministry with YWAM he will provide the funds for staff fees and outreach costs. Thank you so very much for choosing to partner with me and my ministry! Your support truly means the world to me, I could not walk where the Lord has called me if it was not for your faithful support. Thank you! With joy, Macie McCall Donate

Missionary Isaiah Ungos DONATE Howzit everybody, my name is Isaiah Ungos and I have recently been accepted to attend YWAM with Circuit Riders aka CRX! But first, I need to raise the funds to be able to do this! Thank you for investing time out of your day to check this out! Let me tell you a little bit about my journey and why being apart of CRX will play significant part in that. Over the past couple of years, I struggled with a lot of things while falling away from God. Heartbreak, lust, alcohol, nicotine, anger, bitterness, pride, literally anything you could think of. I went through it. I fell into big time depression and started suppressing the way I feel to cover it up. I struggled trusting God because I always wanted to be in control. Until the year of 2026 and the closer I got to God, the more I wanted to pursue His will for my life. He started to give me so much peace in my life when I began to have full faith in Him and walk in obedience. I have been redeemed through Him and Him alone. As soon as I fixed my eyes on Him the vision I had on my life completely dropped and a whole turn of events happened. Which led me to where I am right now, being called to learn how to spread and preach the gospel across the nations. YWAM also known as Youth With A Mission, is a Discipleship Training School which is six months. Three months is dedicated to a lecture phase and the next is dedicated to outreach. The lecture phase will strengthen and grow my knowledge on almost every aspect of my faith. In the outreach phase, I will be placed into a team and sent out into the world to share the good news. If you're reading this now, you probably played some part in this journey, thank you so much!! Please consider partnering with me in this next chapter of my life. Whether that is financially or lifting me up in prayer, I will be needing all the help I can receive from YOU! My goal is to reach $10,000 as soon as possible. By God's grace I am believing I will exceed that! Thank you so much and have a blessed day!!! Isaiah Donate

Missionary Gibbson William DONATE My name is Gibbson, a 20-year-old missionary from Jammu & Kashmir, India. As I write this, my heart is full — full of gratitude, full of faith, and full of a deep burden that God has placed within me for the souls of this generation. From a young age, God changed my life in a powerful way. I am living proof that our God is a living God. He rescued me, healed me, and gave me a new purpose. And today, I cannot keep this miracle to myself. If He could change me, I know with all my heart that He can save anyone. God has given me a special love for the youth who are broken, trapped in sin, and searching for meaning. Many of them are smiling on the outside but dying on the inside. They do not know that there is a Savior who loves them, who is waiting for them with open arms. I am serving with Youth With A Mission (YWAM – F&F), and my vision is to reach the unreached, especially young people who have never heard the name of Jesus. Not many people at my age are ready to leave everything and go as missionaries. But when God called me, I could not say no. He placed a burning burden in my heart for this generation. I am young, I am weak, and I have many limitations — but I am willing. I am ready to go wherever He sends me. Right now, I have no monthly support. Sometimes the road feels uncertain, and sometimes my heart feels afraid. But I am walking by faith, trusting in a miracle-working God who never fails His children. Last year, God opened a door for me to go on a short-term mission trip to Cambodia. It is a Buddhist nation where so many precious souls have never heard about Jesus. When I stood before those young people and shared my testimony, I saw tears in their eyes and hunger in their hearts. I saw God move in ways I will never forget. In a land where Christ was unknown, His light began to shine. The words of Jesus echo in my heart every day: “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.” So I ask you with a humble and sincere heart — who will go if not us? Who will tell them if we remain silent? I am ready to go — to the villages, the cities, and the nations where the name of Jesus has never been spoken. I am ready to give my youth, my strength, and my life for the Gospel. But I cannot do this alone. Today, I come to you asking for your prayers and partnership. Your prayers will protect me. Your support will send me. Together, we can reach the lost and bring hope to the hopeless. Please stand with me, so that one more soul may be saved, one more life may be changed, and one more nation may hear the beautiful name of Jesus. With love, faith, and obedience, Gibbson William Missionary | YWAM F&F Donate
