Outreach Prep: Ablaze DTS 2026
Whats Been Happening?
Right now I am running with the 2026 Ablaze DTS and we are entering the 8th week of our 12 week lecture. During these lectures I have gotten to see a level of growth in my students that shows that they really desire the Lord to move in their lives and I am so proud of them. We have two outreach teams preparing to be sent into the nations; one team to Papua New Guinea and my Fiji team. Aside from the Discipleship school I am staffing I’ve also had a few teaching opportunities! Teaching has been something I never thought I would ever step into but I've been pleasantly surprised at how passionate I am about it.
What's To Come?
I am so excited for what we are about to step into and the ministry opportunities we will have in the nation of Fiji. We will be going to different islands for 9 weeks, helping with whatever needs of the places we serve are presented. We will work primarily with the Nadi base in Fiji and partner with the ministry they have started. After I return to kona I will begin preparations for the Bible Core Course.
A BIG Thank You!
I would like to say a special thank you to all my supporters who have made it possible for me to be in missions. Over the last few months I have had the opportunity to build my support team and it has been such an incredibly encouraging time. I’ve gotten a lot of the answer “no”, but the amount of “yes” answers I’ve received has really encouraged me more than I could have ever imagined. Thank you so much to everyone who has believed in me and given and those who have prayed. I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without you all.
Meet the Team!
Meet my amazing team! Maya is on the left, she is 18 from Texas, she loves to sing and is stepping out in worship leading (P.S. you might recognize her because I led her sister Mikaylas outreach last year). Rebekah is next to Maya in the overalls. She is 18 and was actually born in my home town which is wild! She's Brazilian American and also a worship leader. On my left is Katarina who is also 18 from Idaho. This is her first big venture away from home and Im excited to see what the Lord Does. On my right is Lydia, a 25 year old troubled youth worker from Georgia. She loves the Lord and has a voice that speaks with authority. The Woman on the end is Mitzy. She is 53 and from Florida. She actually attends the same church as my parents, which is how she heard about DTS! Finally we have my co-leader and the only male on our Team, Shane! He is 19 and from Oregon. He is such a kind hearted person and so ready to lead these guys in humility and service. Im honored to walk with this team and excited to see how the Lord Leads us!
Prayer Points
I have been having a lot of health issues lately. As I write this I am sick in bed with a bad case of the flu after only days before recovering from an unknown sickness that took me out for a couple days and not long before that getting horribly sick on my way back to kona. I get to lead this team to fiji but I am with a first time staff and need to be present in order to coach him well and lead the team in ministry. Please pray for health and energy.
