Elizabeth Martin
Advancement Administrator
I became a Christian in college, so I know first hand the impact that seeing other people living out their faith alongside you can have. I am so thankful for the girls who shared their faith with me and simply invited me along to things and loved me well as their friend. I know that I have been given so much in Christ, and I want to continue the multiplication that was passed onto me by pouring truth into other girls and pushing them towards Christ. I want to do this in New Zealand because the laborers are so few there, which means the need is so high. Though the need is very confronting in New Zealand, there is always hope in ministering to students because the gospel isn’t empty. It’s a healing, shame erasing, totally redeeming, comforting, eternal promise that we can point students to and rest confidently in because God is Who He says He is and that will never change.
