Living up to the (Nick)Name of Malachi

As a young adult, I was granted the name Malachi to which many people now ask, Why? Because at the time in my life, it was a 'ninja' status name and sounded really awesome for a girl with next to no fear. I have since found out that Malachi is actually a perfect nickname for me as it means "One charged with a message or mission". How appropriate now that I am going to be traveling to Ethiopia in 2015!

This journey is going to push me so far past normalcy as we enter villages where the name of Jesus has never been heard, with people that I don't have a common language with. God works in wonder and through love, and that is what will be so exciting to experience!

As I begin this journey to prepare, I'd like to ask you to consider donating to help support me financially. This is tax-deductible, so for those of you that can and would like to donate, it would be much appreciated! Any funds raised above and beyond my trip cost will be directed toward the local disciple-makers training. I'd also like to ask for prayers for myself, my team, and also for those in Ethiopia that God has predestined to put in our paths.


Thank you for being a part of this experience! 

Blessings and love,

Mel aka Malachi
