“When I thought of Florida, I imagined the beaches and the warm weather, overlooking the need for the Gospel. For ten days I had the opportunity to shadow an LCM Missionary, Andy Anderson, who covers the Tampa area for WOL. Not only does an LCM missionary help churches get curriculum to better their youth and kids’ groups, but they are there to encourage youth pastors and pastors. It amazed me to see that these pastors just want someone to listen to them and encourage them because most of the time they are doing everything themselves and have no one to go to. When they meet with a new pastor they think the missionary is trying to get something from them, but when they realize that the missionary just wants to help, their guard goes down and they open up about their ministry and how hard it is. Local churches don’t just need curriculum, but pastors need encouragement. WOL has a passion to not only help the local church but to listen and to encourage pastors!” - David Gaona

“This trip has completely revolutionized how I view the gospel. This was my first time ever seeing New York City. I come from a small town in GA, and to say was culture shocked would be an understatement. I am so thankful for that fact, because there was no other way I would have had the nerve to share the gospel with strangers on the street without the Holy Spirit giving me the boldness to get over myself and realize that people are on their way to hell without the gospel. It was so awesome to be an instrument of the living God. Wayumi was AMAZING! I learned so much and my heart broke for the tribal people that have no Bible in their native language. The Lord has definitely given me a burden to help that ministry in any way I can in the future.” - Ashlee Gormer
