Daddy's little girl, Christ's little sister... rooted in Him!

Youth With A Mission is an international-interdenominational movement that began 50 years ago with the dream of a young guy who had the guts to believe His Father to bring "waves of young people to reach out to the nation..." through mercy, evangelism and training... what does that have to do with me? Well, I am part of that dream... On april 7th, of 2001 I joined the 18,000 people force called YWAM. I am a YWAMer, I speak YWAMese; I know the meaning of DTS, SOE, quiet time, outreach, LTS and a bunch of other words that one can learn. Yet, before being a YWAMer, I am Daddy's daughter and Jesus' co-heir... wow!!! what a privilege!

I don't think I'll always live in a YWAM base, and I actually feel Daddy's calling me to a time of closure of the active membership of this organization... but I cannot forget that it was through this tribe of radical Christians, that my Daddy first taught me what "missions" is. I'm thankful! Looking back I can only thank God and the people He surrounded me with for the incredible journey of discovery and service. By His pure grace, generosity and love I've been able to travel to 13 countries in 4 out of the 5 continents of the world, carrying His Kingdom! 

One word: THANKS! To my Papa, to my family (both biological and spiritual) who has believed with me in God's call, to everyone who's been a part of it!!!
