Commissioning Lauren to Southeast Asia

This Sunday, we are excited to commission Lauren to serve in Southeast Asia. She has been a member of Redeemer for six years. After working happily as an elementary school teacher for 17 years, a conversation with a friend planted a seed to learn more about God's heart for the nations. In the spring of 2018, Lauren participated in one of Redeemer's Mission Cohorts, and the Lord opened her eyes to new ways she could steward her life for his glory.

Throughout the following years, Lauren began sorting through what it would look like to move overseas and share the gospel and her life with unreached people. Through hardships and trials, she has waited upon the Lord for his guidance and given up many of her life dreams to follow Christ.

Lauren is planning to join her team in Southeast Asia in June. She will be learning the local language full-time for her first two years, followed by working with the local church to mobilize local believers to reach the unreached portions of Southeast Asia and beyond.

If you’d like to hear more about Lauren’s story, we encourage you to listen to her interview on the Redeemed Women podcast.

Lastly, if you feel led to support Lauren, please get in touch with Hannah for more information.
