Jasmine moved all over the US while growing up, and it was during her high school and college years attending Fellowship Greenville where she grew in her faith and identified her love for Asian students and culture. Her family hosted many Asian international students over the years, and after her first trip to East Asia, she made it her goal to move there. It was after volunteering with Cru and their international student ministry, Bridges, that she was led to move to Asia to introduce people to Jesus. In August 2019, after many study abroad trips to Asia, she moved there as a missionary intern. When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out unexpectedly, she was forced to move back to the States. Eventually, Jasmine found herself serving alongside Thai mission workers in Southern Thailand. In a nation that is less than 1% Christian and has many people who have never heard the Gospel, she saw that it was God who led her there, and God who wanted her to stay. There she serves on college campuses sharing about Jesus with both Buddhist and Muslim students, assisting the local church by teaching ESL, helping lead short-term mission trips, and discipling believing students.

Prayer Requests: For her to learn the Thai language as she serves in a more rural city with few English speakers. Courage to share her faith and good relationships with both her U.S. and Thai teammates. That the strongholds and spiritual barriers to the gospel in Thailand would be broken down, and students’ eyes would be opened to the true hope of a relationship with Jesus Christ.
