Ashleigh
Ashleigh is a new missionary to the UCI Campus that we are excited to support. She is really looking forward to reaching students in Irvine for Christ. The UCI Crusade group connects with students through one-on-one contact. Then they get them involved in one of their Small Group Bible studies or their weekly large group meeting. Throughout the year there are also opportunities to take part in retreats and outreaches. Through their love for the students, Ashleigh and her fellow missionaries want to make the greatness of Jesus known to the UCI campus. We are glad to partner with someone who matches our goal of reaching UCI students.

Patrick Conti
Children's Cup's purpose is "to take humanitarian and spiritual aid into the hard places where war, natural disasters and disease epidemics have devastated societies." Patrick Conti joined the Children's Cup team in 2005 and is now serving in Swaziland. This is how he expressed his heart for being on the team: "Can you imagine millions of children who are forgotten, left behind, unloved and lack any positive identity? Africa faces such a situation with over 15 million orphans due to HIV/AIDS. Children's Cup, by God's grace and direction, has been able to bring life and truth to some of these children. Convicted and convinced I head back to Africa because it screams out for God's people to extend love. My prayer is to carry God's Spirit and His love with me. God loves these children and my life goal is to become the likeness of Christ!"
