Hello friends! My wife Paola and I have been serving in full-time ministry with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) throughout our ten years of marriage. We are blessed with two beautiful daughters, Isabella and Jireh. Just three days after we got married, we flew to the Philippines in obedience to the call of God and a clear word from the Lord on our lives.

For the past decade, we’ve had the privilege of serving across the Philippines with a heart for the fatherless, the motherless, the orphan, and the brokenhearted—especially vulnerable children and those who have been sexually exploited. Our desire is to see lives restored through the gospel of Jesus Christ and to reach millions for the Kingdom of God.

Over these ten years, we’ve personally reached tens of thousands of people through our performance team called Team Xtreme Philippines, and through collaborative ministry efforts, we’ve been part of reaching over one million people with the gospel throughout the Philippines. We also serve and help lead a team of roughly 50 YWAM staff, equipping and empowering them to bring the gospel and lasting transformation to communities across the nation.

Our vision is to see women and children rescued from human trafficking, justice established, and every person reached with the gospel—both in this nation and among the nations—so that lives can be restored, God can be glorified, and multi-generational impact can be made.

If you would like to reach out and connect with us, we would love to hear from you!

If you feel led, we invite you to partner with us through prayer and financial support—whether through a monthly commitment or a one-time gift. Every gift truly helps us move forward in fulfilling what’s on God’s heart. We’re deeply grateful for your partnership!
