BASIC JOB DESCRIPTION
In Exodus 17, Aaron and Hur lifted the arms of Moses as he grew tired, so that the Israelites could win the battle for the Lord. That is what I do alongside Gem. As he presents and speaks the Word of God, I’m interceding on the sidelines asking for God to do the Work that we ourselves cannot do. I also make sure Gem has all the videos and stories from ASAP that he needs for his presentations and I help with other technical aspects during speaking engagements. When we are not traveling I help out at ASAP Headquarters with the shipping of packages to events, staff computer issues or other tasks that need to be done relating to office work.

SCHOOLING
I received training in Literature Evangelism from the SOULS West Bible College. Additionally, I was able to learn basic video editing and ministry skills from the 9 months I spent working with the Seventh-day Adventist missions organization Jesus for Asia.

HOW YOU WERE ORIGINALLY CONNECTED TO ASAP
Gem Castor and I have known each other since 2017/18 GYC in Houston, TX. We kept in touch over the years and then in 2020,  the Lord convinced Gem to invite me to come and visit him in MI. That’s when I was first introduced to ASAP. Weeks later, the Lord convicted Gem and I to begin working together in the Prayer Ministry. After moving to MI, the Lord continued to open door after door for me to be able to work alongside ASAP Ministries in the Prayer Ministry and other various ways in the office.

WHEN YOU STARTED WORKING WITH ASAP
I started working with ASAP in June of 2021.

FAVORITE ASAP PROJECT
Before coming up to MI to work in the prayer ministry, I found a card in my room about My Language My Life and saw that it was about sharing the Gospel in 180 different languages. I told myself that I’d like to find out who made this, because I knew it was powerful! Soon I learned that it was ASAP who had created this website. Now I’m working with them in making this website a place where others can continue to find Jesus. MyLanguageMyLife.com has over 180 different languages with resources to share the Gospel. It’s a continually updating project that has already shared the Gospel with thousands of individuals around the world.

WHAT YOU LIKE TO DO OUTSIDE OF WORK
I like to fellowship with like minded individuals, exercise, and to do fun activities with the young people around in the area. 

YOUR FAVORITE BIBLE TEXT
1 Kings 3:7 KJV   “And now, O Lord my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.” I like this verse because it reminds me that when you don’t know what to do it is actually the best place you can be in, because that’s God’s biggest opportunity for HIM to work and do something amazing.
