Hello Family
Q & A

Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland. In autoimmune diseases, the body’s defense system targets its own cells, making it harder for the body to heal. While there is no known cure for Hashimoto’s, doctors can prescribe medication to help manage symptoms, though these treatments don’t always provide full relief. Through much prayer, I have chosen not to take medication, but instead to trust the Lord for complete healing while also taking intentional steps to remove toxins from my home, lifestyle, and diet.

Three months after receiving the diagnosis and intentionally pursuing healing, we began to see remarkable changes in my health—so much so that my doctor called it a medical miracle.
However, three months later, new bloodwork revealed unfavorable results. Instead of continuing forward, my health had started to regress. Over the past year, I have continued to believe the Lord for full healing while making additional changes.
Recently, my doctor gave me a sobering warning: if I don’t slow down drastically over the next two years, I may not have the strength to make it through the next twenty.
After my most recent visit, he was clear—travel must pause for a season so my body can fully recover.

One morning at 3 a.m., while on my last trip, the Lord woke me and began speaking about my next steps for Fall 2025. I clearly heard Him say, “Go to California.” At first, I was shocked—after all, so many are leaving the state, not moving there. As I pressed in and asked the Lord for more, He reminded me of 2018, when after a season of deep trauma and a near-fatal car accident, He told me to go to California. I was there only four days, yet in that short time God healed me—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Many friends and co-workers were amazed at how quickly the Lord restored me. The ministry He led me to visit during that trip offers healing rooms and inner healing just as we do.
In the weeks that followed my recent trip, the Lord confirmed His word repeatedly. For three mornings in a row, I woke to the Father speaking as He did to Abraham: “Leave your home and go to the land that I have showed you.” He made it clear this was not just a short visit, but a call to move.
After seeking the wisdom of many counselors and the Rapha Nation board, the decision was made for me to move to California for 6-10 months.

Right now, the ministry’s finances are much like my own health—both in need of strengthening. My focus in this season will be twofold: pursuing healing for my body and raising additional support so we can continue advancing the gospel to unreached people groups, restoring hearts to the Father, and equipping new missionaries.
Healing for my body looks like consistently getting 8 hours of sleep each night, focusing on toxin-free living, and lowering stress. Coupled with time in the healing rooms, receiving inner healing, and working a normal 8-hour schedule, these steps will help restore my health and strength for the season ahead.

Prayer — Stand with me in intercession, fasting, and speaking life over my healing journey.
Giving — Support financially to help cover medical and moving expenses, so I can continue this calling strong and healthy.
Scripture tells us that life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. You can join me in this healing journey by speaking life over me, standing in intercession and fasting, and offering words of encouragement. I have complete peace that God is healing me, moment by moment. I don’t fully understand why I’m walking this road or why it has stretched beyond two years, but I trust Father God fully and completely. He is Jehovah Rapha—God my Healer—and I believe I will soon walk in complete health. It is no surprise to me that this attack has come against my body, as the very name of this ministry proclaims God as our Healer.
Some of you have asked how you can help beyond prayer. I have incurred additional medical expenses and would deeply appreciate your financial support. My current need is $14,000, and any gift—large or small—makes a real difference. Here are a few ways you can partner with me:
$25 helps cover supplements and nutritional support
$50 helps with specialized testing and lab fees
$100 supports healing room ministry and inner healing sessions
$250 contributes to medical visits and treatments
$500 or more provides vital resources for ongoing care and ministry sustainability
Thank you for standing with me in faith, encouragement, and generosity. Together, we trust in the God who heals.

God doesn’t waste anything. Over the past two years of walking this healing journey, I’ve discovered many valuable keys to health and longevity. These keys have not only aided in my healing but will also serve as an additional resource for the ministry. I’m now beginning to record and share this knowledge with you and others—whether as part of your own healing process or as a new way of living that supports sustainable, kingdom-focused lives. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and caring for them is just as integral to our walk with the Lord as nurturing our spirit and soul.
I warmly welcome any insights you’d like to share, and if you’ve been on your own healing journey with a heart to help others, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
