Originally from the Pacific Northwest, I’ve called Kona, Hawai’i home for over five years—and counting! A story still unfolding; written by the beautifully detailed hand of God. I feel a deep sense of calling and devotion to Kona and the Hawaiian Islands.

I currently serve as a member of the teaching team and as the Youth Pastor at Hope Chapel Kona, which is one of my greatest joys. I'm a Licensed Foursquare Pastor and hold a Bachelor's Degree in Organizational Leadership from Southeastern University. I’ve been involved in ministry leadership in some way, shape, or form since giving my life to Jesus 17 years ago. I love His Bride, and I especially love His girls.

Walking through a beautiful life of singleness throughout my 20s and now 30s, I’ve come to know Jesus as the best Girl-Dad there could ever be. He has provided everything—and everyone—I’ve needed, and I am fully convinced that we, as His daughters, lack no good thing.

God is a Girl-Dad… and wow, does He have good things in store us, His daughters!

This is my prayer: that you would say YES to it all.

With deepest aloha,

Emily
