Ana grew up in the Philippines in an unbelieving family with five kids. She first heard of the good news of Jesus Christ after moving to Toronto, and she began a personal relationship with God in 1991. She has a desire to see her entire family saved and living for God. In addition, God has been establishing in her a vision and passion for the unreached people of the world through personal mentors, courses like Perspectives and Kairos, and several short-term trips. This calling on her life led Ana to SEND and she is excited about serving the Lord overseas.
