Giving it up!
We just moved and gave all our stuff away!
Many friends have asked, "Why did you give everything away instead of selling it?" I know it makes more practical sense to have sold our furniture, bed, TV and business stuff but we believe the Lord called us to give to Him first before we started receiving from others and we were able to bless some pretty cool people along the way. We do plan on selling our personal vehicles to help with our transition expenses.
Moving in with my parents and giving up my business has been a very humbling experience for Lindsey and I. Naturally we want to make it on our own and have everything figured out. However, we believe God is calling us to fully trust Him and present ourselves living sacrifice for His kingdom (Romans 12:2). And we are grateful our families get to spend time with us and baby Hunter before we move to the other side of the world.
By you giving to God through us, it allows you to reap what we reap and sow what we sow! We are still fundraising and thankfully have raised about 40% of the monthly commitments we need! Time is running short and we want to give you the opportunity to partner with us. Please e-mail me if you're interested in supporting us as missionaries. Every sponsor helps! jeremyb@ywamqueenstown.com
Blessings,
Jeremy, Lindsey and Hunter

The Big News
Dear Friends and Family,
It’s time to announce our big move to Queenstown, New Zealand. We know personally how Youth With A Mission (YWAM) can radically change lives through their discipleship training schools and we are committed to help establish a new training center halfway across the world! We have felt a call to missions for several years and have waited for the right opportunity. When Andy and AJ Scalas (the directors of the new training center) came to visit the Santa Ynez Valley, we made an instant connection with them as they shared their vision for Queenstown. Our relationship grew and we were invited to join them in pioneering the new YWAM center. For the past year we have prayed for confirmation from the Lord and together we feel God is releasing us to go!
Jeremy and Lindsey’s Role
In Queenstown, we will be on the main leadership team with several responsibilities that include starting and staffing a Discipleship Training School (DTS) in January 2015. The school consists of a three month lecture phase and a two month cross-cultural outreach. For the lecture phase, speakers from all over the world will travel to our school to teach on specific topics with the purpose of students growing in their relationship with God. We will be discipling young adults and training them to become leaders and missionaries. Our role also includes equipping our staff with leadership skills and building relationships with the local churches in Queenstown. We also have a longterm cross cultural role of developing relationships with the locals in places like Papua New Guinea where we will be sending teams and visiting regularly. Our outreach goals are to, evangelize the unreached, equip their local churches with necessary biblical resources, and to encourage them in the faith. We desire to live out the great commission from
Matt 28:19 “...go and make disciples of all nations...”
Why Queenstown?
For decades, Youth With A Mission’s leadership has been praying for a team to plant a center in Queenstown. Over two million travelers visit every year making it a great place for evangelism. Queenstown will be an attractive pull for young people looking to take a DTS. We desire to use it’s popularity to train them for missions and reach out to the tourists throughout the region. Queenstown is also in a great geographical location to efficiently send outreach teams to South East Asia and the South Pacific.
