About

I am a missionary currently based in Yerevan, passionately engaged in teaching English to young adults and refugees. My journey began with a calling to ministry at the age of 16, evolving into a mission-focused commitment after being inspired by a missionary's impactful work at a leadership camp when I was 17.

 

Throughout my formative years, I served as a youth group leader and spent four years as an intern in my home church. The call to mission work led me to multiple trips along the Texas-Mexico border, building houses, organizing VBS programs, and contributing to humanitarian aid at a respite center.

 

The culmination of these experiences drove me to embark on an 11-month mission trip across nine countries. From working with children with special needs in Ukraine to aiding orphanages, evangelizing, teaching English, and supporting refugees, this journey deepened my commitment to making a difference.

Ministry Focus

In Armenia, I am actively involved in loading and unloading trucks with essential supplies such as beds, mattresses, hygiene products, pillows, and blankets for refugees. Teaching English to both young adults and refugees is a central aspect of my mission, aiming to empower individuals through education.

Collaborating with Campus Crusade, I strive to support their initiatives, offering assistance in various capacities.

Currently, I am initiating a fundraiser to provide critical resources such as heaters, warm clothing, blankets, pillows, and stoves for refugees in need.

With a commitment to stay in Armenia until March 2024, my goal is to maximize impact during this limited time, driven by a deep-seated passion for mission work and a desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I serve.

How you can pray for us.

In anticipation of the impending Armenian winter, we humbly present crucial prayer points and needs for the displaced communities from Artsakh. These resilient individuals, uprooted from their homelands, face daunting challenges. The pressing need for heaters, blankets, pillows, warm clothing, and stoves is magnified as the cold season approaches.   1. **Protection and Comfort:** Pray for divine protection and comfort as these refugees brace themselves for the harsh winter conditions. May our collective prayers surround them with warmth and solace.   2. **Provision of Essentials:** Lift in prayer the urgent need for heaters, blankets, pillows, and warm clothing. Pray for the swift provision of these essentials to shield them from the impending cold.   3. **Sustainable Livelihoods:** Beseech for opportunities for these resilient individuals to rebuild their lives. Pray for the provision of stoves, offering not just warmth but a means to sustainable livelihoods and income for their families.   4. **Compassionate Support:** Ask for an outpouring of compassionate support from individuals and organizations, that they may respond generously to meet the immediate and long-term needs of the displaced.   As we unite in prayer and action, let us be the instrument of change, offering hope and assistance to those facing adversity. Your prayers and support can make a profound difference in the lives of these individuals. Join us in this noble endeavor, and together, let's be the answer to their prayers.
