I am so glad you are here! Let me introduce myself:
Hi there! My name is Rachel and I love all things Jesus, creativity and relationships. I am a passionate missionary from Phoenix, Arizona but living in the heart of Tijuana, Mexico where I get to live out my love for Jesus with my best friends in ministry. Whether it's capturing the beauty of life through my camera lens or enjoying deep conversations with others over the perfect latte, I thrive in the little joys that make life extraordinary.
I stepped into my missionary calling in 2023 when I did a Discipleship Training School in El Salvador to now staffing in Tijuana Mexico. I have a passion for Latin America and to see revival sweep through every country. I believe in making God known not just through words but through the way I live and love others. Whether it’s lending a hand, offering a smile, or capturing a moment that tells a story, every little thing matters in the big picture God is painting. I’m always on the move, make sure you stay up to date with my life through joining my Missions Page on Facebook and reading my monthly newsletters!
HOW I GOT INTO MISSIONS
In 2022 I got let go from my job and was unemployed looking for another job. During this time I had the opportunity to travel to El Salvador on behalf of my church and capture content of a missions trip they were taking there. It only took a few days for my heart to burst open and feel the deep longing to do this longterm. After this, I was looking for a way to move to El Salvador for a few months and was introduced to YWAM El Salvador. I did a Discipleship Training School (DTS) in July of 2023 and graduated in December 2023 after completing my lecture and outreach phases. After this I moved back to Phoenix, Arizona thinking my time in YWAM had come to a close. In June of 2024 I came to visit a friend who is staff at YWAM San Diego Baja in Tijuana, Mexico and in these four days the Lord kept impressing on my heart that this type of missions is what I am created for in this part of my life. I took the step of faith and moved to Tijuana Mexico in January 2025 where I currently reside serving Latin America and beyond. The goodness of God really does follow those who obey the call and trust in Him. My story of missions is ever growing and developing, I am so blessed to get to do this!
