Missions
…is yours for the asking!
“And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”
Mark 16:15 NKJV

Every mission trip had it’s challenges, before, during and after, and each proved to be a test of my faith and an opportunity to grow in grace and trust. Growing in the grace is not easy, but it is miraculous as God will do through you what you never imagined.
Every missions trip has been rich with lessons. Here are a few:
- We serve a global God and all people are His children, waiting to be loved and served by us.
- You will always receive more from those you serve than what you can give to them.
- God will transform you as you serve Him.
- When called to an assignment, you will be forced to overcome your fears.
- Always expect the unexpected.
- The enemy will fight you before, during and after your mission.
- God will do the unexpected and surprise you.
- God will tell you to jump off the edge of a cliff to teach you how to fly.
- If you don’t say “yes” to His call or assignment, He will find someone else who will.
Jamaica, 2016
I had the opportunity to minister to the sick and shut-in,
and to orphans with Master’s Touch Ministries Global Inc.
from Winston-Salem, NC.
Los Angeles, CA 2016
I joined Master’s Touch Ministries Global Inc.
in the Los Angles, CA area to visit a Sudanese refugee facility to minister hope and healing.
We also got to visit one of Donald Trump’s golf country clubs.
Navi Mumbai, 2017
My very first trip to India was in 2006, to Visakhapatnam with a 40 member team from my church. It was life changing as we did orphan and house ministry and helped host a leadership conference. It was here that my passion for India missions was born. In 2017 , I joined Global Hope India (GHI), a Raleigh, NC-based non-profit, to minister the love of God at house churches, in the slums and to the women and children of the red light district. These pictures are from the Navi Mumbai mission.
Odisha, India 2019
Working with Love Never Fails, a non-profit from Metuchen, NJ, we visited the New Life Ministries campus where we conducted services, crafts, games and worship with the students and residents.
Goiania, Brazil 2022
I traveled solo for the first time in 2022 to Goiania, Brazil where I was able to teach English at a Summer camp with TeachBeyond.org. This trip was a major stretch for me as I had to overcome many fears by the grace of God. In 2023 and 2024, I continued teaching and leading teams at English camps in Fortaleza, Tres Coroas and Sao Bento Do Sul, Brazil.
