She's Headed for South Africa...And YOU Can Help Get Her There!

Have you ever met one of those “memorable people”? You know, they’re the ones who cross your path for a brief moment, but who leave an indelible imprint on your life?

I have.

I’d like to introduce you to my friend, Rachel. We met on our ORIGINS trip to Israel a couple years ago. Rachel loves the Lord and wants to serve Him with her life.

She has an amazing opportunity to travel to South Africa with Trans World Radio (TWR) to work with their women's ministry, and she could use your support!

Rachel is an incredibly talented and likeable person. I’m excited to see what the Lord has planned for her in South Africa.

The following is a brief biography of Rachel and explains what she’ll be doing in South Africa. If you are able, please consider making a contribution to her fundraising campaign by clicking on this link.

Rachel is an incredibly talented and likeable person. I’m excited to see what the Lord has planned for her in South Africa.

Rachel grew up in Erial, New Jersey with three brothers, managing to survive as the only girl. She first learned about TWR during her freshman year at John Brown University but it wasn’t until her junior year that she applied to be an intern the following summer. When summer came, Rachel served as a journalism intern with TWR Americas in Cary, North Carolina. As the summer came to a close, Rachel discovered that she didn’t want to leave and filled out an application her senior year of college.

Rachel is now planning on moving to South Africa to work as the Project Hannah Africa Regional Coordinator Assistant where she will aid in mentoring, coordinating the monthly prayer calendar, visiting and encouraging teams in Africa, advocating for the plight of women, praying daily, updating the PH Africa website, researching on issues facing women in Africa, writing reports and articles as well as editing and proofreading PH publications.

Her whole life nothing has ever gone quite as she planned and Rachel has taken on the motto “Always expect the unexpected.” In her spare time, Rachel enjoys laughing, movies, singing, theater and never turning down a good meal, especially if there are cookies.

This video tells a little more about my friend, Rachel.
