Ashton Summerhays is a long-time family friend of ours. As a young woman in her early twenties, Ashton is at a place in her life where she is following her heart, hoping to allow her faith to affect those around her.

From January to June Ashton will be participating in a Mercy and Justice Refugee Discipleship Training School with Youth With a Mission (YWAM) in the Netherlands. For the first twelve weeks she will be learning what the Bible says about mercy and justice. More specifically the focus will be how God feels about refugees and what the response should be to refugees. With all that’s currently going on in the Middle East, Europe has seen a huge influx of refugees seeking asylum. For the last ten to twelve weeks Ashton and her team will go to another country within Europe to put into practice what was learned.

Please join us in giving toward the funds Ashton needs to go and follow her heart in allowing her faith to affect those around her.
