Hi, I’m Kristy, and I was raised in the church, giving my life to the Lord during a transformative summer camp as a young teen. As I continued to grow, the Lord called me into nursing, a career I had never considered. I began nursing school, and out of obedience, I followed. A pivotal moment came shortly after I completed nursing school—after some quiet time with the Lord, He gave me one word: "Bolivia". That word set my course, and just a few months later, I was on my first short term mission trip there. Shortly after, God brought me back to Bolivia for an extraordinary two months living on the side of a mountain—a time I still pinch myself over, as I see how He led me to so much more. God’s calling on my life was bigger than I ever dreamed.  And from that moment, I knew I was called to serve wherever He leads, with faith and purpose.

In 2023, the Lord called me away from my nursing career in the hospital, and I stepped into full-time ministry work. Now, between short term mission trips, I live in the United States. I’m deeply involved in my local church—leading youth programs, serving in administrative roles, the community, and caring for families as a nurse at a pro-life clinic. Additionally, I serve as a disaster response team member with Samaritan’s Purse, deploying globally when disasters strike. Through it all, I’m committed to ministering to people of all ages, being a voice for life, hope, and resilience
