Next Stop...London

The last 6 months have been so packed with amazing ministry and life giving things. Here are some pictures and videos showing all that I have been up to. 

Visiting Roosevelt Highschool handing out donuts and praying with students. 

We gathered 400 students at Roosevelt public high school in LA. They heard about God creating them as a master piece and how they are beautiful no matter what the world says. This Bible club is going to take over the entire school by showing Gods insane love for everyone! One student started this bible club and now hundreds are being touched by it! 3 girls gave there hearts to Jesus and several others received prayer! So blown away by Gods goodness.

During my last visit in Kona at the YWAM base I got to help with worship.

Here is a picture of the ONE LOVE event that we put on at USC in LA. 1200 students gathered to hear the message of Jesus's love for all and the simple gospel. It was incredible. We spent hours putting up this tent and the Lord was faithful to pack it out!

I was blessed with the opportunity of leading worship at a prayer room that is on Sunset blvd in Hollywood. Radiance International.  

I was blessed helping lead corporate worship for a week in Kona Hawaii.

More leading worship! : )

Me and Steven doing what we know best. 

Isla Vista looks like this EVERY weekend. Packed with college and high school students partying. In the midsts of the wildness God is shining. Watch the video below.

While I was in Isla Vista California I was asked to help create a video of us asking the students what they thought of Jesus. Every weekend thousands of UCSB students are out partying and an incredible ministry called Jesus Burgers is out sharing the love of Jesus in the midsts of the craziness. Honored to spend a weekend with that ministry. We were able to pray with the students after interviewing them. God is on the move in Isla Vista

All of this was possible because of your generosity. My life has been forever changed and I can not thank you enough! God has opened some incredible doors which involve me being able to go back to where my heart longs to be, Europe. Jesus LOVES Europe and I can't wait to go back. 

THIS IS WHAT'S NEXT!!

[Opportunity]

At the beginning of this year I was approached by my leadership at YWAM Kona, to pray about being apart of a Fire & Fragrance Discipleship Training School staff team that would go on a one month missions trip to London. (In case you may have forgotten, I led a team to London just last May!). I will be leaving the start of April and as of now, I am in Oklahoma gathering supporters who will partner with me while I am overseas! This is a very important and exciting trip for our team because it will help us determine what the next few years of our lives in missions could look like if we were to commit to launching long term to the UK this upcoming fall. 

[Why London?]

You might be thinking, of all places in the world, why London? Well, for the past two years, Fire and Fragrance has sent short teams multiple times to the UK, to partner with the workers there, and do ministry at universities such as Cambridge and Oxford. The leaders of F & F and the leaders of YWAM Harpenden (a small town located 30 min outside of London) have been dreaming about what it could look like for a community from YWAM Kona with a heart for worship, prayer and evangelism, to move to London in the fall and join in on all that God is doing there! 

The purpose of this trip is to 'scout' out the land (see what life and ministry would look like if a group of missionaries moved there long term!). We want to see London the way God sees it and get his heart for how he longs to move there. 

The plan is to meet with the YWAM base leaders in London and other leaders around the city, to see what partnering them in ministry could look like! 

(Testimony: During my time in London last spring, my team spent a week at Cambridge University and saw over 60 salvations. We know that the students in these universities are longing to know Jesus and we desire to share the Good News with them!)

[Communities Around The World]

Fire & Fragrance has commissioned a handful of teams to the nations to establish themselves in the local communities and commit themselves to the people of the land.

Rather than a lone missionary venturing off solo, we desire to see whole communities of 6-10 missionaries launch together. This will ensure a much healthier start and help long term vision prosper. 

Right now, there are groups of YWAM communities living in South Africa, Oman, Nepal, Ireland, Los Angeles, Venice Beach, Spain and Japan. God is using them for amazing things in the nations!
