“I grew up in a Christian household, but during high school I felt the pressures of the world, especially surrounding drugs and alcohol, and I went through a season of falling away that lasted about four years. In 2014, the Lord drew me back to Himself, and I rededicated my life to Christ. Since then, I’ve seen His grace restore and transform me in ways I couldn’t have done on my own. That redemption changed everything, and it’s led me to pursue missions—because I want to extend the same grace God gave me to others.”

I felt led to Dare for More because it aligns with what God has already been doing in my life through missions and serving others. What especially drew me was the focus on restoring women and children who have been impacted by trafficking. I believe deeply in restoration—that when God heals and restores a life, it doesn’t just affect one person, it impacts generations.  

This mission matters to me because it’s about bringing both practical help and the hope of the gospel to people in some of the darkest situations. It’s about seeing lives rebuilt, dignity restored, and people come to know their true identity in Christ. I want to be part of that—to serve, to love well, and to point people to the same grace that changed my life.

As a Global Representative in Guatemala, I’ll be serving on the ground through relational ministry, discipleship, and support work within the community. A big part of my role will be building consistent relationships—mentoring boys in the safe house, walking alongside families in vulnerable situations, and helping create discipleship opportunities for men.  

 I’ll also help support and prepare mission teams, serve as a bridge between cultures, and assist with practical needs as they arise. This includes being present in difficult moments—helping provide safety, stability, and encouragement to those who need it most.  

 At the core of everything, my role is to be present—to show up, invest in people long-term, and reflect Christ through both action and truth as lives are being restored.

Thank you so much for considering being part of this mission. I truly believe that when we help restore mothers and children from broken homes, we are not just helping one family—we are impacting generations to come. Restoration at the root produces fruit for the future.

Here at Dare for More, I want to help others see the forest through the trees—to see beyond the immediate situation and recognize the long-term transformation that can happen through the grace of Jesus Christ.  

 Your prayers and support help make that possible. Thank you for partnering with me in what God is doing in Guatemala.
