Hi, my name is Ella Rose! I am just beginning my first year as a full-time missionary with a nonprofit organization called Circuit Riders, in Huntington Beach. Circuit Riders is a part of YWAM (Youth With A Mission) and works with the mission to reach the younger generations with the gospel and train them as leaders in living out their identities in Christ and living out the great commission. We work mostly with high schools and universities in the United States, South Africa, and Europe.

I recently returned from my discipleship training school with Circuit Riders in Huntington Beach, and South Africa. It was one of the most joyful and growing seasons of my life, and during it, the Lord sparked in me so much joy and passion for living for him daily with my time and work.

I have always loved working with youth, and during this time the Lord also continued to grow my passion for seeing young people experience the awe of the Lord and find true purpose and joy in their identities in Christ!

While so many youth are shackled by the mental health crisis, addiction, hate, and lies believed about their identities, there is joy, peace, purpose, and life that is waiting for them in living a life for Jesus. So amidst all of this, there is SO much hope!

Just last year within three months of the different Circuit Riders tours, 500+ universities were visited, 28,298 people were gathered, and 3,169 people were saved! The Lord is moving and has such a heart for this next generation, and he is calling us to be his hands and feet in making disciples!

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:19-20
