I am a missionary serving in San Ramón, Chanchamayo, Peru. My primary ministry is to the youth and women. My heart for missions began when I was in high school. I majored in missions (Bible) at Pensacola Christian College and even went on a couple of missions trips over the years (Ivory Coast and Romania), but I knew that my mission field was somewhere else. During my daughter’s junior year (2014) in high school, my daughter and I discussed the possibility of us doing a mission trip together. I contacted a college friend who grew up as a missionary kid in Perú about the possibility of going with her. Through prayer the Lord confirmed that we should go and serve through Hope for Women Ministries. That summer we joined with several different churches, serving by sharing our testimonies and teaching at women’s conferences. I absolutely fell in love with the people, the country, the need, the “all” of Perú. The Lord allowed me to return to Peru the next three summers (2015, 2016, and 2017), and again serve the women, teens, and children in several different cities. The Lord affirmed the call to Perú and placed San Ramón on my heart. I began "hrt4Peru" in 2017, moved to Peru in 2018. Additionally, God has given hrt4Peru a vision for Refugio de Vida – Life Refuge. This refuge will encompass a women’s shelter to assist women who have suffered death (widows), divorce, sexual or physical abuse and allow them time to heal. There will also be a local Baptist church and a Christian camp on the grounds. The land has been purchased and cleared; construction will proceed as funds are provided.
