When I was a young kid, living in Lima, Peru, I had my first encounter with God at a family summer camp outreach led by missionaries. An evening children's service, marked the beginning of my spiritual life. I remember the message well because it was through a video of the earth God created that it opened my eyes to world for the first time. I had never seen anything so beautiful and immediately fell in love. However, this world was full of hurt and pain, that caused my heart to break and weep. But then I heard these words, “Christ is the solution to this dying world. Do you want to be part of the solution? Then come to Christ", so I raised my hand and accepted Christ as my savior. Much later on in life, I went on my first missions trip to the Dominican Republic. There, I saw the power of God and realized he was truly real. I committed my life to Him and that decision transformed my life. 

Now, it has been two years since I packed and left my home country (U.S.A.) to pursue a life of purpose, mission service in Romania. In the becoming, I have seen the hands of God leading and confirming my call to a lifelong career in world missions, Europe region. In my heart burns this desire to fulfill Philippians 2:11 “and every TONGUE declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father”. I’m deeply convinced that the church is the solution the world seeks and that discipleship is the most effective way in knowing Christ in a real and powerful way. 

I am committed to His global vision and in all that he will do next in Hungary! I am honored that you would come along this journey and together fulfill this vision daily. Thank you.
