My Story
My first mission trip with GEM was to Rome, Italy, where I led a team of students from North Greenville University. I’ll admit that I initially questioned the need for missions in Europe after serving in places like Zambia and Haiti. However, what we encountered was a beautiful, historic city where many churches had become architectural landmarks rather than places of worship.
Through conversations with people on the streets, it became clear that much of Europe is post-Christian and deeply in need of the gospel. Those experiences reshaped my understanding of missions and stirred a lasting burden for Europe. Since then, I’ve continued serving with GEM across Europe, bringing teams to places like England and Kosovo. I’m excited to join what God is already doing in Kosovo!
Where I Work
Kosovo is less than 1% evangelical Christian and is a majority Muslim country, making the spiritual need for the gospel great. I will be joining a team of GEM missionaries already faithfully serving alongside the local church, seeking to invest in deep, lasting relationships with the people of Kosovo.
Through everyday presence, hospitality, and intentional community, my desire is to walk with people over time - creating space for honest questions, gospel conversations, and lives to be transformed by Christ. I’m eager to be part of what God is already doing in Kosovo and to see the local church strengthened for generations to come.
