The More You Know

Hello, my name is Julia! My passion is to see young people encounter the Lord and walk in the purpose He intentionally designed them for. At Ywam Lancaster, I lead our youth ministry team (Rally) and have the opportunity to daily call young people into deeper obedience to the Lord! My heart specifically burns for the youth in Lancaster County as well as those in the Muslim World. A dream of mine is to be a part of sending teams of young people into the Middle East, and other predominately Muslim areas of the world. I’ve been in missions since 2022, and have a heart to see every nation, tribe, and tongue worship the name of Jesus.

Romans, because it transformed the way I viewed myself and the Lord.

Right now, I enjoy reading ESV and thoroughly explaining the Bible in ministry.

I traveled to Colombia on a Bible Distribution trip. It was incredible because of the experience of giving people a Bible for the first time when they’ve never had their own!

I’ve wanted to be a missionary for years but didn’t know what that practically meant. I decided to do a DTS for a taste of missions.

I completed my DTS in March of 2023. It gave me a whole new perspective on missions. I don’t have to be someone super special to be a missionary. I just have to be close to the Lord and obedient to what He asks me to do.

My DTS was at Ywam Mazatlan and then the Lord led me back to Lancaster and to Ywam Lancaster. It’s been incredible to see the differences in the bases but both with a heart for serving the Lord in the midst of different cultures.

Recently, in Lancaster, I’ve been able to go to many different youth groups and youth ministries to share. Through different conversations within those places and conversations in evangelism, the Lord has been teaching me how intentional He is. And at times He does show up in significant, dramatic ways. But He often wants to impact people simply through relationships and conversation.
