Missionaries Lowell & Shay Ballew DONATE Hello! Welcome to our missions support page! We are Lowell and Shay Ballew and we live in a suburb south of Houston, TX. We have been married for 28 years and have four grown children, one wonderful daughter-in-law, and one amazing grandson. After 30+ years in full time vocational ministry leading worship in the local church, Lowell was called out to the marketplace to do real estate for a few years. However, after a 2 year period of sabbatical, rest, sitting at the feet of Jesus, and a lot of prayer, we began to feel a clear call to ministry and missions again. We both had a call of missions on our lives from a young age and both separately and together went on several short term foreign mission trips. From 2011-2013 we served as missionaries in South America with Ripe For Harvest. With our four kiddos in tow, we committed to living in Cochabamba, Bolivia for two years, leading worship in a local church, leading the youth group, and teaching art and music at a Christian School. Now, in a new season of life, we have felt the call to GO once more! In November of 2023, we were introduced to NATIONS House of Prayer and Coreluv, Intl. in Houston. We met the founders and directors one night at a worship night and began a conversation that would change everything. After much prayer and discussion, we both felt it was very clear that the Lord was leading us to join the staff of NATIONS. So, in March 2024 we gave them our yes and dove right in. As staff missionaries with NATIONS, we help lead worship and prayer sets throughout the week at our ministry headquarters, located strategically in the third ward of Houston. We have a prayer room that is open 3 days a week, with prayer sets that the public is welcome to attend. These times are set aside to meet with Jesus, worship Him, sit at His feet, and for intercessory prayer. Lowell also plays in the band for our first Friday worship nights, which take place the first Friday of every month are widely attended by many in the community and a lot of young adults. GEN Z is so hungry for Jesus and desperate for authentic, heart felt, transformative worship and it has been incredible to watch the growth. NATIONS had its first ministry Internship Summer of ’24 and we look forward to continuing this amazing time of raising up new disciples and followers of Jesus every summer. We will also be helping pioneer NATIONS SCHOOL, which will be a 9 month long discipleship school that will include intensive Bible classes, time in the prayer room, and a 6 week long mission trip to either Haiti or Honduras, where Coreluv (our outreach arm) has established orphanages and feeding centers. We are hoping to be fully funded by this time so that we can be a part of the first NATIONS DTS! We are also involved in local outreach in the community, doing food drives once a month in partnership with the Houston Food Bank, hosting cook outs for the residents of a low income retirement community located adjacent to our building, doing school supply, uniform, and toy drives for the children that live in Cuney Homes, which is government housing project just 3 blocks from our building. We will also be involved in reaching out to students at UofH - the Lord has begun to open doors and make connections with students and staff on campus and we have been able to host a few gathering in partnership with another ministry called Hope In Houston. In March 2025, we will be helping pioneer the planting of NATIONS CHURCH as well! We are so excited about being a part of the foundational team to help create a Sunday expression of worship, prayer, solid Bible teaching, and children’s ministry. As we work towards the goal of being fully funded to allow us to be full time inner city missionaries, we are tent making to make ends meet. The closer we get to our financial goal, the more we are able to serve and work in the city. Would you consider joining our team as a monthly financial supporter and/or prayer partner? We know that where you give your money matters, so please ask and seek the Lord if you he would have you give! We are so grateful for any and all donations to our ministry and so humbled that you would consider sowing into the Kingdom by becoming a financial partner with us! Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to learn even more about NATIONS and Coreluv, Intl. Our monthly financial need is $10,000. So far we are at about 15% of our goal. Thank you, again, for considering helping us reach our goal of being 100% funded!

MISSIONARY David Newell DONATE YWAM Tokyo is focused on reaching a generation of Japanese and helping them discover their purpose in Christ. They wish to reach them through the arts, something that thrives in Japan and something I have been very passionate about. We’ll be assisting in teaching English and using it as a means to spread Gods word. We also want to help the growth of the small Christian community. My heart has always been Japan and its people, especially the youth. My mission through YWAM Tokyo is to reach the youth of Japan and guide and encourage them. I want them to know the love God has for them and the plans and dreams He has for them. I’d like to work on a real personal level with them and help shape them. I know God has great plans for the youth and that country and I’m excited to see it fulfilled. Donate

Missionary Ren Reyes DONATE My name is Lauren Tiffany, but everyone calls me Ren! I’m 22 years old and in love with Jesus. He saved my life, healed me, and gave me a peace I’d always searched for. For the past 3 1/2 years, this has looked like sharing my faith publicly on social media, ministering to young girls through preaching and mentoring, serving and working as a creative for church and other ministry organizations and now in women’s ministry! The Lord has planted me locally in Miami for such a time as this but the nations has always burned in my heart! I’ll be moving across the country to join Circuit Riders as a missionary, and prepare myself for missions to carry the brave love of Jesus to women in this generation. As I continue to pursue full time ministry, I can’t do this alone. So, would you prayerfully consider partnering with me as a monthly sponsor or giving a one time gift? Every dollar sown is greatly appreciated and a step toward reaching lives with the love of Jesus and will allow me to focus 100% of my time and efforts to making Jesus known. Ren Donate

Missionary Emmanuella Twagilimana DONATE Hi friends! My name is Emmanuella, and I am passionate about loving Jesus and loving people. Over the years, my faith has grown through being deeply involved in my church community serving in choir for about seven years, helping lead as a treasurer, participating in youth preaching through Open Word, and spending time in children’s ministry. These experiences have shaped my heart for ministry and has shown me the importance of serving others with consistency, humility, and love. My ministry is centered on sharing the Gospel in everyday spaces and creating opportunities for others to encounter Jesus. I believe ministry isn’t limited to a stage. It happens in conversations, relationships, and how we show up for people. Through opportunities like Circuit Riders and the Black Voices Movement track, I desire to grow in boldness, be equipped to reach my generation, and use my voice to bring hope, truth, and love to those around me. In the next season, I am believing to attend Circuit Riders Summer School, where I can be trained, discipled, and equipped to step further into my calling. My heart is to take everything I learn and bring it back to my community serving in my church, reaching young people, and continuing outreach in practical and impactful ways. I also hope to reflect Christ in my future career as a nurse, showing compassion and care to people in some of their most vulnerable moments. I can’t do this alone, which is why I am inviting you to partner with me through prayer and financial support. Your support will help make it possible for me to be trained and sent out to share the Gospel and serve others. Every prayer, every donation, and every bit of encouragement truly makes a difference and allows me to walk fully in what God is calling me to. Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me. Your support means more than I can express, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to step into this next season with a community behind me. Emmanuella Donate

MISSIONARY Rich Binning DONATE RICH BINNING Teacher/ Basketball Coach Southeast Asia “A Game Changing Narrative” Starting in August 2026, I will begin my role as a teacher and coach at Grace International School in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I will be teaching a Sports Leadership Class designed to develop young leaders who wish to create a positive influence in the world for Christ. The Sports Leadership program allows students to refine vital leadership skills by serving younger students and leading outreach projects within the local Thai community. Grace International Christian School was founded to meet a critical need within the mission community. Committed individuals serving across Southeast Asia and beyond have encountered the difficulty of returning to their home countries due to a lack of educational options for their children. I am thrilled to return to teaching and coaching. It is invigorating to utilize basketball as a means to impact the lives of vulnerable children who are at risk of sexual exploitation. Guiding youth to reach those who have yet to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and assisting in “changing the narrative” for children and their families throughout Thailand. I would be grateful for your prayers and financial support. To learn more about our efforts, please contact me directly at 618-217-9728, or email me at ghsrich@gmail.com Thank you, Rich Donate

Missionary Sydney Wickman DONATE Mahalo Friends & Family, My name is Sydney Wickman and I am a full-time missionary with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) serving in Hawaii. When I was in my last year of college I had the opportunity to go to London on a mission trip with my church. London is one of the worlds largest global hubs and I got to witness that first-hand as I interacted with people from all walks of life (Muslims, Hindu's, Buddhist's, Catholics and Atheist's). Each person had the same innate desire in them -- TO BE KNOWN. Because of my time there evangelizing became not just a joy but a passion. I learned that I am gifted in loving people just as Christ has first loved me. I believe in the calling placed on my life -- Matthew 28:19-20 Since then, I did a Discipleship School with YWAM where I got to go to the Nation of Papua New Guinea. I fell in love with the way their Nation worshiped the God I also knew. From there I did a three month Bible School with YWAM where I learned a studying method that I got to take to the Nation of Mongolia! I am going to continue taking the Gospel along with the truth of God's Word to the Nations! What is YWAM you might ask? YWAM is a decentralized missions training organization that focuses on walking with students as they get to know God and make Him known among the nations! Partnering with God in what He is doing around the world is such a joy and I am blessed to invite you to be part of the journey! I would love if you would consider partnering with me through prayers and financial support in sharing the love and Word of God in the nations as I continue to give him my ‘yes’! Would you prayerfully consider partnering with me?! Blessings, Sydney Donate

Missionary Finnley Sparwasser DONATE My name is Finnley Sparwasser, and I am nineteen years old and absolutely in love with Jesus. I am a full-time missionary with Circuit Riders, a missions movement that focuses on activating college and high school students to flip their campuses for Jesus. I completed my Discipleship Training School with CR last year, and now I am going into full-time missions with them. Jesus is worthy of every nation, tribe, and tongue, and I want to be a part of seeking the lost for His glory. The Lord saved my life in high school, and I want to give every day to helping other people meet the only one who can save and fulfill. I plan to lead missional "tours" as we call them, where we host worship events on campuses across the world. Traveling from school to school, carrying the gospel across the globe. As a full-time missionary, I live completely off the generosity and support of my community- people who want to join in with what God is doing in this generation. All support goes towards living expenses (rent, gas, food, etc.). Thank you for supporting missions, much love. Finnley Donate

Emily Valler DONATE Hello! My name is Emily and I am a full time nurse working in Humanitarian Aid, Disaster Relief and Education with multiple organizations. Psalm 2 is the chapter of my life. When people ask me where I feel called, I tell them I feel called to the whole world. I ask for the nations for my inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for my possession. My desire is for the world to know the love of God and that Jesus came to make us whole - Spirit, Soul, and Body. I will go wherever He sends me. The Lord called me at an early age and I have had the privilege of being trained in trauma, disaster relief, humanitarian aid, and crisis and trauma debriefing. I am excited to put this training to use and share it with those the Lord leads me to. Revival is coming, but first He calls us to repentance. His gentle Spirit draws us to Him and we are set free. I am clay in the Potter's hands. I am so thankful for the opportunity to provide help, aid, and healing. Please keep me in your prayers. I would love to have you partner with me. Many blessings! Emily Donate
