Meet Shannon. I met Shannon at a conference about a year ago. She was a youth pastor in her home church. She had gotten saved through her church's bus ministry. When she, as a student at Southwestern Assemblies of God University got the opportunity to be the youth pastor, she told her students that she would be there until every one of them graduated. Committment.

Last year, the youngest of those first students graduated. God was prompting her heart to bust out and do some crazy missions something. What? She felt peace as He told her He'd let her know. We met a year ago. She came up after the service and said this was what God had for her and she was ready to join the team. That was a Saturday, When I called her on Monday, she had told her pastor, found some initial funding sources and was on her way.

She worked with us in El Salvador, Indianapolis, South Carolina, the Philippines and N. Asia.

This week she was approved to be a Missionary Associate. She's coming on board full-time.

If you've met Shannon, you know she's got that light in her eyes as she's watching from a front row seat some good things that God is doing.

Pray for Shannon! Pray her fundraising will be swift.

Pray that others will join her.
