In early 2009, I set out on my first adventure as an adult. While in my first semester at Indiana Wesleyan University, I received my calling into full-time missions. That summer I went on my first two missions trips where my calling was confirmed! After returning home, and being denied entrance into some missions organizations for reasons like my age or lacking a degree, I knew that God was calling me to start Ankura Ministries to help others like myself, who are called and have a passion to do big things for the Kingdom!
