A before-and-after view of Ryhal’s life, from searching for direction to praying for others

Same person. A completely new direction.

MY STORY

Jesus changed the direction of my life.

I know what it means to need a new direction. Christ met me, changed me, and gave me a purpose bigger than myself.

The same grace that transformed my life is the grace I want students and communities to encounter—bringing freedom, direction, and purpose. This is not a personal ambition; it is my response to Jesus’ Great Commission.

“Go and make disciples.”

— Jesus, Matthew 28:19

WHY I GO

“As Christ transformed my life, I believe He will do the same for them.”

This is not my mission alone. It is His.

Ryhal speaking about the Great Commission

THE MISSION

One gospel. Three expressions.

Every Nation exists to honour God by establishing Christ-centred churches and campus ministries in every nation.

Establish churches

Build Christ-centred community, make disciples, empower leaders, and strengthen families.

Change the campus

Engage students with the gospel, help them find freedom and God-given purpose, and develop future leaders.

Change the world

Cross cultures, serve local communities, and equip leaders who can reach others.

WHY CAMPUSES AND CHURCHES?

Change lives. Restore purpose. Plant churches.

Students are making decisions that will shape their families, workplaces, churches, and communities. Many are searching for identity, a better direction, God-given purpose, or freedom from addictions that hold them back. I want to meet them with the gospel and walk with them through honest, consistent discipleship. Christ-centred churches then provide a spiritual family where freedom can deepen, disciples grow, leaders are raised, and communities are served for generations.

MY JOURNEY

Called. Trained. Ready to be sent.

God has been preparing every part of the story for this assignment.

01 Called

A testimony became a mission

God turned the story of what He did in me into a burden for students seeking freedom, direction, purpose, and hope.

Equipped to serve

Through Every Nation’s mission training, I was prepared for campus ministry, discipleship, church planting, and cross-cultural mission.

Ready for the assignment

Now I am developing the partnership team that will help me disciple students and help plant Christ-centred churches in Fiji.

WHY FULL-TIME MINISTRY?

God called me to make disciples—and I chose to put His Kingdom first.

This collage captures a season when I was leading life groups, discipling students, and sharing the gospel—all while working full-time as a Web Developer at ANZ.

I was grateful for my career and deeply committed to the ministry, but the reality of a full-time workload meant I could not always follow up with people as consistently as I wanted. Students' questions, struggles, and next steps did not always fit around office hours.

But this decision was about more than time or work. I heard God calling me to be part of mission work. As I kept returning to the Bible, the command I could not escape was simple: go and make disciples.

I chose to obey. That calling led me to resign from ANZ and seek first His Kingdom above everything else, trusting God with the next chapter.

  • Leading life groups centred on Scripture and community
  • Walking with students through discipleship and personal follow-up
  • Sharing the gospel through evangelism and honest conversations

This is the mission: I am building a partnership team so I can serve full-time—helping students find a better direction and God-given purpose, walk in freedom from addiction through Jesus, grow as disciples, and help plant healthy, Christ-centred churches.

Together we can reach every nation and every campus.

WE DO NOT GO ALONE

Together, we can help change the future by guiding those that are lost in the world.

MINISTRY PARTNERS MAKE IT HAPPEN

Going and sending are part of the same mission.

Romans 10 brings the mission to a practical question: people hear because someone goes, and missionaries go because faithful people help send them.

“How will they hear without a preacher? How will they preach unless they are sent?”

Romans 10:14–15

MINISTRY PARTNERS MAKE IT HAPPEN

Ministry partners make it happen, with Romans 10 verses about hearing, preaching, and being sent
Ministry partners help make long-term mission possible.

PARTNERSHIP WITH PURPOSE

A team approach to mission.

01

Personal connection

Your support is connected to the ministry assignment of a specific missionary.

02

Responsible stewardship

Every Nation oversees donated funds, with a portion supporting ministry growth and shared administrative care for missionaries.

03

Consistent sending

Monthly partners help create the stability needed for long-term, relational ministry.

PARTNERSHIP TEAM POLICY

How the partnership team works.

Every Nation missionaries have the privilege of developing a team of partners to support them in their ministry assignment. This team approach enables Every Nation to send more missionaries into the world and gives each partner personal contact with the ministry of a specific missionary.

Every Nation has complete control over the use of all donated funds. Since one of our goals is to guarantee the success of future missionaries, a portion of each dollar raised goes toward ministry growth and providing administrative support for all of our missionaries.

I am presently developing a team of partners for my ministry with Every Nation. In order to get to my ministry assignment as quickly as possible, I am trusting the Lord to provide individuals who will make monthly investments toward my ministry with Every Nation.

YOUR PART IN THE STORY

You can help send the mission forward.

Every missionary is strengthened by a team of people who pray, give, and stand behind the work. Your monthly partnership helps make consistent campus ministry, church planting, discipleship, leadership training, and mission possible.
