Who am I? 

I am a 23 year old from what some know to be the “Boogy down Bronx” area of New York City. Like many, I can speak of the various obstacles and challenges I’ve had to face from a broken home, to almost dying from Guilian Barre Syndrome at the age of 14, to foster care in my teenage years. Etc. Yet through it all, I’ve always knew that God had a plan bigger than me! Larger than whatever season I was walking through and I am now able to see why God allowed me to undergo many things. How could I believe for healing for a person near death had I not experienced HIS healing POWER? It has all been a part of the beautiful story of my life that he is still writing and every chapter will be a tool to take with me as I embark these 11 countries and come across people from all walks of life.

 I am a part of The Sanctuary Fellowship church in the Bronx and I love to minister and network with other churches and believers as well. I love to express my worship through writing, singing, and service. Growing up, I remember watching infomercials such as, “Feed the Children”, and “Operation Blessing” and being deeply moved in my heart. I remember not wanting to change the channel and feeling so strongly that I had to do something to help the less fortunate and to reach the broken. I would always say things like, “I want to be a missionary when I grow up” not realizing the weight and power that those words held. In 2011, I launched out on my first ever AIM missionary trip to Lima, Peru alongside a local sister church. (Harvest Fields Community Church) That was an encounter I will never forget, where my passion for the lost was enlarged, my boldness was put to test, and my desire to reach nations expanded.

Where am I now? 

I am being strettchhhhhed. I see God moving in my life and preparing me for this 11 month journey. As a leader and close friend Joseph Dominick said to me, “The journey does not being in July, the journey has already begun in YOU”. These words hold truth. I can see God asking me to trust him in every area of my life; My present, my race, my future after the race, finances. Etc. He is bringing me to a place where he is asking me as he did his disciples, “Who do you say I AM?” 

I have finally begun the fundraising process and have been moved by the love people have demonstrated in supporting me in this journey. Looking at the numbers can be quite overwhelming but as another Missionary and close friend Hector Gonzalez said to me, “It is pocket change for GOD”. I pray that you would all keep me in prayer as I count it all as lost for the one who counted it all as lost first, JESUS!

Truth in the journey: 

Matthew 28:19

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

Acts 20:24

“But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”

Matthew 6:33

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

Isaiah 43:19

“Because I am doing something new! Now you will grow like a new plant. Surely you know this is true. I will even make a road in the desert, and rivers will flow through that dry land.”
