Preventing commercial sexual exploitation in countries of origin
First Mission
She went with AIM at age 17 to ecuador to work at a Juan Romero crusade
Becoming a Missionary
She felt the calling everytime a missionary came to speak at her home church. At the age of 7 she knew she would work with Spanish people and began studying Spanish when she was 13. This call has never lifted, nor has the joy of serving.

Guinea is approx. 14 million in population 47 people groups and 29 are unreached 86.9% of the population is unreached Largest religion is Islam, there is some mixture of animism 0.68% evangelical Currently, God has opened the door for Guineans to receive the gospel. The surrounding countries are predominantly Islamic states where it is against the law to proselytize. Guinea currently has an evangelical president so the government is favorable to the Gospel being preached. The General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God has a calling to plant churches and is eager to see this work happen in his country. As God has made this opportunity possible. Me and several others including AGWM (who has never sent a missionary to Guinea in its history) and AMI (where I serve full time) has both been led by the Spirit to come into partnership to reach the lost. God is moving and we are excited to minister in this country while the opportunity is here!
