Hi, I’m David Candler, and my passion is to know Jesus deeply and love Him wholeheartedly, and to serve my generation by helping to fan the flame of their passion and discipleship unto Jesus.
It begins

Hey Reader, So it begins We made it. My sister Maddie and I arrived last week in Richmond, Virginia, and have jumped right in to the rhythm and routine of this MAPS global family. OrientationWe have enjoyed getting to meet the other students as well as the staff and community on the missions base. As I write to you, we are at the end of Orientation week and I find myself so expectant for what the Lord is going to do in these next months — not only in my own heart, but in all of those around me. Already, I am being marked by the great commission and assignment of Jesus — so much more than I imagined. I can’t wait to unpack all that’s ahead. Prayer RequestReader, your prayers and financial partnership have truly brought me to this moment, and I am so grateful. Looking forward, I would love prayer for grace and peace as I walk through this big transition and settle into all the new things in this community. Maranatha, — David |

Right now I am training full-time with a missions organization in order to be sent out to proclaim the name of Jesus in the Middle East. Prayer for the Middle East Together with my sister Maddie and fellow students, the...
Hello Reader, I hope this letter finds you well. Right now I am almost two months into my gap year and loving it here at MAPS Global in Richmond Virginia. As I look ahead at what God has in store, I am thrilled to give you some context for how I got here, what I am doing, and how you might be a part. How I Got Here As you might know, I just graduated high school, and the Lord has done so much in my heart this past year. This 1min video below summarizes it pretty well: Early last fall, the...
