Shivanna Jake started out in our church family as a teen, new in her faith and excited about her relationship with God. Not only has she grown tremendously in her walk, but currently is on a short term mission trip in South Africa.

This mission trip was originally a 2 month internship with Impact Africa, but Shivanna has felt led to extend this internship to a 6 month internship. If you would like to help her extend her stay,  go to:
