The Summer Ambassadors are approaching the end of their 10 weeks of service. Some of them were able to visit the Lansdale, PA area last week to have lunch with the Mosaic Conference staff and dinner with friends and supporters. It was energizing for them to share their reflections and learnings. The Ambassadors who gathered last week for a closing retreat in Cartagena, Colombia had a very meaningful time reflecting on leadership, their summer experiences, and developing friendships. Please pray for the other half of the Ambassadors who will gather in Arkon, Pennsylvania next week for their closing retreat.
Below, four more Ambassadors introduce themselves:
Ana Hernández, Fraternidad Cristiana Vida Nueva (México City)
“I became an Ambassador to help people in need and share the Gospel with them. My other motivations were to develop my leadership skills and put my professional knowledge into practice. This summer, I hope to grow in leadership and in my spiritual life.”

Interests: I like nature and art, and I enjoy listening to and supporting people.
Hobbies: I enjoy writing poetry, singing, listening to music, reflecting, and delving into the Bible.
Eunice Domínguez Ferrer, Fraternidad Cristiana Vida Nueva (México City)
“I became an Ambassador because I enjoy seeing different perspectives and how different people live. It is also an opportunity to reflect on everything God allows me to have, which I sometimes fail to appreciate. This summer I hope to help people, and I pray that God grants me the wisdom to understand and listen to them, to continue preaching the Gospel, and to help more people come to know God.”
Studies: Psychology

Daniel Torres, Christian Council of Liderazgo y Fe de Colombia Oasis de Fe
“I became an Ambassador to learn and contribute my knowledge. This summer I hope to enjoy every moment and create unforgettable memories.”
Occupation: Teaching

Heydi Perez Casas, Iglesia Menonita Shalom (Tampa, FL)
“I became an Ambassador this year because I have been an Ambassador previously and had an amazing experience. I wanted to learn even more and continue developing skills I can use for my community, my congregation, and my own life. I hope to experience new ideas and become a stronger leader. This summer, I want to meet new people, building meaningful connections, and learn about other cultures. I want to explore the idea of how, though we all have different perspectives, cultures, traditions, we all serve one God.”
School: Hillsborough Community College, studying education
Interests: I am studying to become an elementary school teacher.
Hobbies: I am the photographer in my congregation; I love to capture many beautiful moments in church. I enjoy spending time with loved ones and learning from others so to expand my life.
