Simply, that is where the Lord has called me. He gave me a vision and a heart for trafficking victims and sex-workers in Amsterdam; and after prayer and prompting by Holy Spirit, that's where I'm heading. Our Father specially designed each one of us with a purpose, and turns out this is mine.

That is entirely up to God. The city or country He calls me to may change, but I know I will be in relationship ministry for the rest of my life. Also, Christ Forged isn't going anywhere. It will continue to grow for His kingdom and glory. Now, as all His followers come to learn, He doesn't give us the entire plan with all the steps from the get go, or there would be no room for faith or free will. He has, however, generously laid out the next year for me, for which I am grateful and excited. I am looking forward to wherever this journey leads and I am happy to keep you apprised if you would like to follow on social or subscribe to a newsletter.

The daily work will consist of participation in prayer and worship sessions, bible studies, and small groups; also, street ministry, sharing the gospel, and offering prayer to pedestrians and sex-workers. My goal is to establish long-term relationships with sex-workers, and any whom the Lord connects me with. Ministering to, discipling, and offering one-on-one support as they leave their old lives, heal, and forge a new one (hopefully) in Christ. Alongside these victories and everyday routines, I will encounter spiritual warfare which will be combated with scripture, prayer, and a support team. Overall, I will serve the Lord and others to the best of my abilities.

For now, yes. I am the only missionary within the Christ Forged Ministry, but I am not the only missionary or ministry in Amsterdam. There are a few ministries in Amsterdam with the same or similar focus, though the workers for the harvest are few. But don't worry, I am already connecting with people there, so I won't be alone.

Yes. Last year, in the summer of '23, I spent three months in N. Cyprus. We even spent a week in Turkey building small homes in the earthquake zone. We did street ministry, shared the gospel, prayed for people, had prayer and worship sessions five days a week, and even got to participate in two different faith healings. Aside from that, I spent almost six years in the Air Force and was stationed in S. Korea for two of those years, so I'm used to overseas assignments.

In my hometown (in NM) I'm apart of a Spirit filled church, which is apart of the tri-area Southern Baptist Association. I believe in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ; that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life; and that none can come to the Father except by Him. I also believe in the power and works of Holy Spirit, that He still moves, and that it is by grace we are saved, through faith, and not by works.
