Hi everyone!

My name is Madison Velasquez. On August 4th, 2024 I made the decision to give my life to Jesus and trust Him to lead and guide me. Since then, my faith has completely changed my life. With that being said, I recently got accepted into an amazing missions organization called YWAM (Youth With A Mission)!

This September, I'll be leaving for Kona, Hawaii, where I'll spend six months in their Discipleship Training School (DTS). The first three months are focused on growing deeper in my relationship with God through discipleship, worship, classes, and serving. The second three months are the outreach phase, where I'll have the opportunity to travel internationally to share the love of Jesus and serve communities wherever God leads our team.

This will be my very first mission trip, and I couldn't be more excited. Missions has been on my heart for a long time, and I truly believe God has opened this door for me. I know these six months will challenge me, grow my faith, and equip me with lessons I'll carry for the rest of my life.

I'm incredibly thankful for this opportunity and can't wait to see all that God has in store not only for me, but for the people I'll have the privilege of serving.

As I prepare for this journey, I'm currently fundraising to help cover the cost of the program and outreach. If you feel led to support me financially, any amount, big or small, would mean so much and help make this opportunity possible. If giving isn't possible, I would be so grateful for your prayers as I prepare and throughout my time in Hawaii and on outreach.

Thank you so much for your support, encouragement, and prayers. I'm excited to share this journey with you and keep everyone updated along the way! 💗
