Because He is Worthy
Brianna grew up in Cypress, California.  After attending high school at Valley Christian, she attended California State University, Long Beach on a full scholarship as a President's Scholar.  She graduated in May of 2002 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and passed her nursing boards test.  She is a Registered Nurse.  She has been involved in missions multiple times over the past years, including tips to Mexico, Nicaragua, Romania, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Peru, and El Salvador.

Her desire to be involved in medical missions is fueled by the example of Jesus given in the Gospels of bringing healing to the people along with God's love and truth.  She desires to use her abilities to enlarge the Kingdom of God and bring more worshippers to Him.  She is excited for the opportunity to use her skills for His Glory.  She spent a year overseas working in medical missions in Latin America and the Western Coast of Africa.

"Let every detail in your lives--words, actions, whatever--be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way." (Colossians 3:17 The Message Bible)

Brianna is working on her Masters in Missions and Intercultural Studies at Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL.  After she finishes up in Spring 2005 she hopes to train in Australia with YWAM as a birth attendant and travel to developing nations to work with the midwives in these communities.  Her greatest desire though is not to bring medicine, but to bring the love of God to these people that they might know Jesus, our Savior.
