Hello friends & family!
Happy New Year! So much has been happening, I feel like I haven't had much time to catch my breath!
Our base hosted a 2-week outreach to our city called YWAM United, which brought over 100 missionaries from 4 different bases in 3 different states together, & which I was given the opportunity to help lead & organize! What an incredible opportunity! We saw nearly 5000 Bibles in English, Spanish & Arabic distributed all over Los Angeles, countless salvations, thousands received prayer, multiple documented healings- it was a tremendous outpouring of God's love to some of the darkest places in our city. We connected with Ekballo, California Will Be Saved, Skid Row ministries, & churches across the city to unite together as one for the purpose of seeing revival sparked here. Like a fire, all it takes it some wind to make it spread! We are believing God for this!
Coming into the New Year, there are many, many changes & shifts within YWAM LA that we as a base are standing together in prayer to see the new things God is desiring come forth in this year, & the coming years. Please join us in lifting up YWAM global, as well as our missions base in Los Angeles. Many shifts are happening around the globe in terms of how missions are carried out. One thing I know, God is BIGGER than covid & His name WILL continue going forth into the nations!
THANK YOU for your prayers, & your partnership with me in this last year of stepping out into what felt like some pretty scary waters! This Friday will mark one year since beginning my journey with YWAM, & I cannot begin to tell you of the wonders & miracles He has worked since giving Him that "YES". It is ASTOUNDING the obstacles He has moved in order to bring me to this place. It is a place of continual surrender. Continual choosing, daily, to lay down my life. And no matter what comes this year, I want my answer to continue to be "YES!" Jesus, You are worthy of it ALL.
~Jo
