Missionary Shekinah Johnson DONATE Hey I’m Shekinah and I’m a fulltime missionary with Circuit Riders. I’m part of a movement that is all about reaching this generation with the gospel and equipping them to go out and to present the free gift of salvation and freedom that is only found in Jesus. I have been a friend of the movement since 2019, but in august of 2022 the Lord gave me the green light to step into fulltime missions. I was at the Londen summer school and we had a moment where we got to sit down with a group while talking about our shared experience as Black Christians in Europe. And it occurred to me that none of us really knew any black missionaries, nor did we know what it actually meant to be a missionary and the Lord challenged me with the question “Do you want to be the example you always wanted to have?” My heart and my goals are to go out and show my generation that there is more to life than the life we’ve been living. I grew up trying to fit in and trying to figure out what my passion is, but in that moment I knew exactly what it was. I want to share the joy and purpose I’ve found in Christ. I want to present people with the truth. While doing that I will be traveling around America, Europe, and other parts of the world to see the great commission fulfilled. The harvest is plentiful, and the laborers are few! (Matthew 9:37) Would you prayerfully consider partnering with me to change that? Shekinah Donate

Missionary Van der Merwe Family DONATE Henk and Antoinette Van der Merwe serve with Iris Global at the organization’s head office in Franklin, Tennessee. Since 2016 they have been part of the Family Care department, providing relational support and care to leaders of Iris bases and ministries around the world. Together with their five children—Elihanna, Jubilee, Kelilah, Tehila, and Yoshua—they have been living in Tennessee since 2022. For their family, it is a great honor to serve and support their heroes: the Iris Global missionaries and leaders serving across the nations. Their heart is to see these missionaries and leaders thrive and have the support they need to live fruitful lives in both ministry and family. Henk is originally from South Africa and has sought to follow Jesus step by step throughout his journey. He first served with YWAM for seven years before moving to Mozambique in 2009 to work with Iris Global. There he met and married Antoinette, a fourth-generation missionary who moved to Mozambique in 2005 with her family, the Wilcoxes, in response to God’s call. Henk and Antoinette spent many years living in Pemba, Mozambique, serving in a variety of roles before joining the newly formed Family Care Department. In Franklin, they are also part of a growing local community that seeks to create a place where Iris missionaries, their families, and others the Lord brings can encounter Jesus, be refreshed, and receive spiritual nourishment. Their dream is to help followers of Jesus—both locally and around the world—walk in the fullness of what the Lord has for them: lives that shine with His presence, filled with His joy and love, and marked by wholehearted obedience to Him.

Missionary Liz Rojas DONATE Hi! I'm Liz Rojas, born and raised in Paraguay, South America. And starting 3 years ago, I'm in full-time missions with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). In 2019, I began my journey with YWAM. At first I served as a interpreter for teams from Kona who were sent to my country. In February of 2020 I enrolled in a DTS (Discipleship Training School) in São Paulo, Brazil with Fire & Fragrance Ministries. During my DTS the Lord stirred up in me, more and more of a love for the nations and passion for Jesus to say Yes to Him no matter where, even to the ends of the earth. After my DTS was over I stayed in Brazil for another season to serve at the base and in June of the same year, the opportunity arose to do an internship in South Africa, with Fire & Fragrance Ministries for 3 months. After that, I received the invitation to stay in full time missions for another season! It was a blast to serve that nation and it's people I just love South Africa. At this base, we were serving and working with the community, high schools, small groups with young girls, families as well as ongoing discipleship. It was such an honor to be part of what God is doing in South Africa and to witness the awakening for the first love of Jesus! Now, I'm back in Brazil continuing serving with YWAM in São Paulo. Our base focus is in training, equipping and sending missionaries to serve in the field. We also have other ministries such as Justice & Transformation which works with children in situations of risk, families from the local community, elementary schools and women in who are vulnerable. King's Kids is a short term camp-training for children and teenagers, Evangelism and English Classes which is designed to prepare our staff to learn and speak another language, break limitations and and be ready to take the opportunity to serve Jesus in other nations as well as taking the gospel to the ends of the earth! Besides this, now I have the opportunity of taking part in a secondary school here at the base. It is The School of Biblical Christian Worldview. It is a 3 months course, that aims to give us a Vision of the Kingdom of God through the influence and impact that Christ brings to all of society. Not only about individual salvation, but a profound and transformative impact in all areas (Family, Church, Education, Arts, Sports, Communication, Health, Business and Government). Would you like to be part of what God is doing in the nations? I would like to invite you to prayerfully consider partnering with me in prayer and financially. Thank you for your prayers, intentionality and financial support. I pray that the Lord will bless and return for investing in His Kingdom! Liz Donate

Missionary Hayden Brooks DONATE Hi everyone my name is Hayden! I recently graduated from YWAM’s Discipleship Training School in the Spring of 2026. YWAM’s, Youth With A Mission, introductory course is DTS. This 6 month course is both a lecture and Mission field experience. After spending 3 months in the mission field, I believe the Lord is calling me to full time missions. YWAM works to send young adults out on the mission field to know God and to make God known. After my time in DTS, I realized God wants me to commit first to a SBS (School of Biblical studies)in order to grow and learn in the word during the fall of 2026. This school would allow me to read, study, and chart the Bible 5 times through in 9 months time using the inductive study method. After this I believe God is calling me to central/western Asia to continue spreading and teaching the gospel to those who have limited access and people to explain it. I am seeking partnership by prayer and/or funding in order to see God’s kingdom sent to every nation. “And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.”” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬ Hayden Donate

Missionary Kaleia Magdaleno DONATE Short Backstory Hey friends, family, and those reading! For a short life update, recently I made the 360° turn to pursue a life of sharing the Gospel with others. I always loved and worked hard with everything I did, but something didn’t feel right, I just hadn’t known what. I began to engage in conversations with the homeless and God placed so many people in my path to not only help guide and encourage my journey, but who also were a few steps ahead in where I plan to be. I believe that God equips every person to be where they are now, and to help them succeed in the things they do, but for me he had been calling on my mind and heart to help, disciple, and shepherd his people. Through feeling lost and at times separated I realized he had been preparing my heart for missions all along. So I was obedient to his calling, moved home to plant seeds of faith in my family, put a halt on all the things I wanted, to chase the life god had laid out for me. My Next Steps To continue with this, I’ve been led to join Circuit Riders Discipleship Training School this next January. I’ll be entering a six month program where I will be sharpened and grown as a missional leader. For the first 3 months, I will be training and growing my faith and knowledge through His word; Surrounding myself with community, to prepare myself for discipling His people. For the following 3 months, I will be sent to outreach overseas to a currently unknown location to share the Gospel and knowledge I learned to uplift the people around me. And upon return, I hope to continue this lifestyle and staff with the organization to continue these mission trips, spreading Jesus’s love while helping those in need. Where You Come In None of this I can do on my own! I used to struggle with asking people for anything and was fearful to accept gifts, thinking it was an action that was forced. But praise God because he’s filled my life with amazing people who showed me that some actions are purely acts of love and God blessing and providing for his people’s needs. My heart is on my sleeve, and I hope you can see my love for helping those around me, and that I’m exactly where I’m meant to be! Whether you are of faith, or not just yet, just know that I am so thankful you read this and that any support received isn’t forgotten about. Even if this doesn’t quite make sense to you, I would still love to receive your support, share the other ways God has moved in my life and my full testimony, or even to hear yours.. so please don’t hesitate to reach out. This year I will need to raise around $10,000 for my future schooling and missions trip, but I’m also looking to continue my journey with Circuit Riders for at least the next few years. So, whether your support is monthly or given once, it’s gratefully appreciated and I ask for you to prayerfully consider partnering with me and the ministry the Lord has called me to. Donations have no minimum, I’m just so grateful that you read this far. Whether it’s $10, some kind words or just your prayer over my journey ahead, it’s all so appreciated. This lifestyle wasn’t meant to be easy. God’s disciples still faced trial and questioning, but God has reminded me that if the world hates me, it hated Him first. As I enter this next season, the support means so much and I would love to update you as I embark on the journey ahead. I love you all, and thank you truly. Love Kay Donate

Missionary Moses McDowell DONATE Hello, I’m Moses McDowell, 21 years old. I grew up in Kona, Hawaii, and now live in Thompson Station, Tennessee. My family has been involved in missions for over 30 years. I gave my life to Jesus at a young age, and since then, I've been driven to see the lost restored in response to His love. To the ends of the earth, for LOVE! In January 2023, I eagerly joined YWAM straight out of high school and completed my Discipleship Training School with Fire and Fragrance in Potchefstroom, South Africa. After that, I completed the first quarter of the School of Biblical Studies in Kona, Hawaii. While there, I felt called to embark on a 50 State Tour with four friends, traveling for eight months to activate and mobilize Gen Z into the Great Commission! We partnered with The Send and other YWAM ministries, like Circuit Riders. Now, I am a full-time missionary and would love your support through prayer and finances. If you feel led to partner with me in hastening Jesus' return, any amount is appreciated! Ultimately, God is our provider, and He uses us for His purposes. Thank you. Blessings, Moses Donate

Missionary Hannah Davis DONATE Hello!! My name is Hannah Davis and I’m taking a gap year from college to attend YWAM Circuit Riders, Discipleship Training School. It is located in Huntington Beach, California and begins this upcoming fall, 2024! I met Jesus in 2020 in my high school bedroom. I was searching for more and the Lord placed a desire to read the Bible, ever since this day, God has completely changed my life. I have had a passion for missions, and the Lord has placed California on my heart for about a year. The Lord's timing is perfect and I am so excited to be a part of this awesome opportunity! What am I doing? October through December will include lectures, training, worship, being equipped in skills, learning about outreach, and doing small outreaches in the community. Then the next 3 months will be mission/outreach work either in the United States or overseas, working with Carry the Love Tour, doing outreach at College Campus's as well as Universities. This will be us as a team hosting a place for the next generation to encounter Jesus. Your prayer and support will be so helpful in this time for the Lord to do a work within me and our team to encounter Jesus. And through this mission I am fundraising to pay for housing, flights, tour fees and additional expenses. Your prayers and support would mean so much to me and I am excited to see how the Lord will provide and move during this process. Thank you so much. Hannah Donate

Missionary JoJo Wynn DONATE Greeting, My name is Josephine (“JoJo”) Wynn, and I’m honored to serve with Iris Global as one of their missionaries. In September 2025, I attended Iris Harvest School in Greeneville, Tennessee, near the Great Smoky Mountains, and graduated as part of its first class. During that season, the Lord confirmed my love for Africa and my call to serve there full time. In August 2026, I will attend the Harvest Base in White River, South Africa. My ministry is shaped by the gifts of apostle, prophet, and teacher. I am committed to advancing justice and equity through a God-given mandate to help set His people free by repairing the breach and restoring paths for others, as described in Isaiah 58:12 (KJV). My background in the military and in outreach ministry has prepared me to serve and to engage in spiritual battle around the world. At the White River Base, the team plants churches and strengthens local congregations through discipleship and empowerment so Jesus is exalted in every way, and orphans and vulnerable people are cared for in their own communities. Michael’s Children’s Village raises up a generation of African children marked by purity, passion, and purpose through family-based care and community transformation. The base also operates a ministry center called Village of Hope, which hosts many programs, including discipleship classes, the Jabulile Preschool, and the HEM Project (a sewing ministry). As a prayer warrior and intercessor, I see the need in White River to proclaim victory and sound the war cry for orphans, widows, and the fatherless. I praise God for this call to missionary work, and I’m grateful to everyone who has supported me in pursuing my lifelong destiny. Would you consider partnering with me through prayer and financial support? My monthly support goal is $1,400 to cover the following expenses (round-trip airfare to Africa is separate and is estimated at $2,400): • Giving (tithes, offerings, and generosity) • Household supplies • Food • Transportation (travel to and from different areas) • Self-care If you’d like to support monthly or give a one-time gift, please pray about an amount and reach out to me for the best way to give. Your support will help bless people around the world—every prayer matters, and every dollar will be used to advance God’s Kingdom. Thank you, and please feel free to email me with any questions - justicejmwynn@gmail.com JoJo Donate

Missionary Samuel Talley DONATE Aloha, my name is Samuel Talley and I am one of the first Kosraean Missionaries. Since the fall of 2021, I have joined a Christian missionary sending organization called YWAM (Youth With A Mission) located in Kona, Hawaii. At the age of 18, my life changed drastically because I found myself in love with the man Jesus! Over the years, I've witnessed my family's lives and many others transformed because of the gospel of truth (Romans 1:16). I am now serving with messengers and at a local church called KKF (Kosrae Kona Fellowship). As Messengers, we train and make disciples of every nation to send to every nation hoping to one day see the great commission fulfilled in our generation (Matthew 28:18-20). Overall, my heart burns for all the islanders to come to know the man Jesus Christ. To know Him...and to make Him known. Please pray and consider partnering with me financially as I serve the Lord as a full-time missionary. Bless you. Samuel Donate
