Before I got to college, I dreamed of being in an office, wearing a nice business suit and moving up the corporate ladder. I was going to 
make it to the top of the advertising world, successful, wealthy, and well-known. By my junior year of college, God had destabilized this dream a bit by telling me I was going to be a missionary, but in my mind, that would have to wait until AFTER I hit the business world and made some money.

When I graduated, I tried hard to find a job, I really did. I blamed the preliminary decline of the economy and budget cuts, but really, I think God seized the opportunity to shut some doors. See, MY plan may have been to get a job and make some money, but God said I want you NOW.
The World Race got me hooked on missions; serving, loving, sharing, these were the things that brought me life! I could never imagine going back to an office and working the 9-5.
Ironically enough…I am
I am starting a photography school and also working in the marketing department of AIM. Right now, I’m kind of the low man on the totem pole, assisting the team with whatever. It’s easy to feel forgotten or insignificant. You’re not on the front lines in the field; you don’t get to meet new people and pray over them; and you have to watch as everyone else launches into the field on some new exciting adventure.
However, today I was reading blogs, envious of the experiences I was reading about when it hit me: the only reason anyone knows about the stories on the field is because of people like me. People who work endlessly behind desks to maintain websites, blogs, and other marketing tools. That’s what I do. I distribute the stories from the field. I may not be a missionary out there, but I am still a missionary here focused on serving, loving, and sharing with the church.
That means, I still need you, my supporters.
This is my ministry for this season. Please join with me to keep telling these stories, and visit the “Support Me” link on the left hand side of this page. I have reached the initial goal of $2000.00 but now I need to raise $1126.00 monthly to remain on staff. You can give a one time gift or give monthly. Even if it’s only a small amount that’s all it takes to help me reach my goal. Help me to continue to tell stories like Maryanne Yeary’s. There are still lives that are touched by the work I do in the office.
This is what I do for a living-I am a missionary. Thank you all for you prayers and support.
