Hi, I'm Isaiah, a 21-year-old college student studying Computer Science at OSU. I have been blessed to grow up attending SW Bible my whole life (except for when I'm in Corvallis). 

 Some of my hobbies and passions include sports (especially basketball), fitness, the outdoors, and board games. More importantly, I believe God has given me a special heart for peers from other cultural backgrounds throughout my time in high school and college. It is my hope that my involvement in on-campus international student ministry groups, as well as my participation in several shorter term mission trips, have been God's way of helping prepare me for this much longer trip.

 I would really appreciate prayers for all aspects of our time abroad. If you want to reach out to me for whatever reason while I'm overseas, please contact my parents so we can get in touch.

PRAY

• For safe travels to and from the country

• That the Lord would show us how to make this opportunity work well for future outreaches

• That the Holy Spirit would embolden each member of the team

• That the Lord would be pursuing many Muslims and opening their eyes to the truth of the gospel

• That each team member would learn quickly and engage others in the culture
