It's been over 9 years since i first headed out on the mission field. I never would have guessed all the place God would have taken me.
I grew up in Ohio and never really knew what i wanted to do in life. After spending sometime in school working on a business degree i decided to take a break and try missions for a year. Well it's been a long time since 2001 and I'm still here.
Currently I am working in South Africa, helping to direct a ministry training school. Everyday is different which keeps me busy! I love getting to help put God's Word into the hand of every kid in this country.
I work for OneHope (http://www.onehope.net). Our goal is to get God's Word into the hand of every kid in the world. It's a big task but we are excited for the movement that is starting to take place all over the world. We have handed out over 700 million copies of the Book of Hope since 1987 and we are going strong. In the next few years we will start to see lots of new ways we are reaching children. through movies, TV, text messages, teacher trainings, and the list goes on.
We know that it's so important to work with the local church, to help promote transformation through someone who understands the local culture. We also know that God has called us all to go. We provide short term and long term mission opportunities for people of all ages. One of the best parts of my job is seeing someone who has never had a chance to experience missions come and be changed forever.
