Missions

My name is Edson Nascimento, and I’ve been serving in missions since the year 2000 through Youth With A Mission (YWAM). My journey began in Brazil, working at an orphanage with children from difficult backgrounds. Over the years, my heart has remained rooted in reaching the lost, discipling the next generation, and sharing the transforming power of the gospel. I’ve had the privilege of traveling to more than 45 countries, sharing the love of Christ and telling the story of how He’s changed my life.
While serving in the mission field, I met my first wife, Leora. Together we shared a deep passion for ministry and had two beautiful children, Lily and Levi. In 2020, while we were serving in South Africa, Leora went home to be with the Lord. In time, God brought new direction, and in 2022 our family moved to Barranquilla, Colombia, where I began focusing on discipling young people through small groups, mentorship, and basic counseling. We also partner with local nonprofit organizations to meet practical needs and share the gospel with vulnerable communities.
In 2024 I married Aura, who has fully embraced God’s call on my life. She has been a constant support to Lily, Levi, and me, and now partners with me in the ministry God has entrusted to us.
Thank you for your continued prayers, encouragement, and support. Your partnership allows us to keep loving and serving the people God places in our path.
With love,
Edson, Aura, Lily, and Levi Nascimento

Their ministry also champions youth and family transformation across South Africa and beyond. Through Focus on the Family Africa’s "No Apologies" abstinence program, they bring a message of purity and purpose to schools and youth groups in multiple nations. With a heart for strong, God-centered relationships, they are actively launching the "Make Marriage Great Again" campaign, aimed at restoring hope and unity in marriages.

Hi, I’m Yreille. God, my Creator and Sustainer, loves me deeply and has given me purpose, which shapes everything I do. I love Him and live each day with the aim of pleasing Him.
Rooted in His calling, I serve full-time in missions and outreach. Each day, I wake up with a passion to know God more and to make disciples by guiding and equipping those I encounter to follow Him through biblical truth.
Over the decades, it has been a joy to walk with others on their spiritual journey, watching them mature in Christ and live out their faith with awe at who He is.

My name is Appolonia A. Ngobidi, and I am a devoted servant of God, driven by the Great Commission in Matthew 28:18–20 to share the Gospel and serve humanity. I was born and raised in Nigeria and later became a naturalised citizen of The Bahamas. My multicultural background has enabled me to serve many different people, practically and spiritually.
My mission, inspired by Luke 4:18, is to reach the lost, care for the poor and needy, and minister deliverance to those who are hurting and bound. My passion for souls and my desire to serve are at the heart of everything I do.
With the blessing and support of my husband, Marcellinus Ngobidi, I go wherever the Lord leads me  to touch lives, inspire hope, and share the love of Christ with all I meet. Thank you for standing with me in this journey.
