This is my very first newsletter – thank you for believing in me even before you knew where God would lead me!
A little bit of my bio for those that don’t know my background. I was born into a Christian home, I gave my life to Jesus at age 5. From Texas youth rallies and Mexico mission trips as a teen, to Bible studies in California where I met my husband, to moving to tiny Chappell, Nebraska in 2009 to care for a dying friend - my whole story has been shaped by following Jesus wherever He leads (even when it hurt).
For the last 15 years my husband and I have helped plant and grow Solid Rock Bible Church in rural Nebraska. I’ve designed everything - logo, website, signage, bulletins - while raising animals, working as a freelance graphic designer, and supporting his prison ministry the last 3 years.
In 2020 I lost my full-time graphic design job. Hundreds of applications, hundreds of “no’s.” Five years of learning to praise Him in the silence.
Then a few months ago a friend heard a visiting missionary say TECH Team Advantage desperately needed another graphic designer for their media team. She thought of me.
Last month I officially joined the team!
I’m now their first fully remote graphic designer, using my skills to equip missionaries and ministries worldwide - often at little or no cost to them.
Like all TECH Team staff, I’m a faith-supported missionary, which means my husband and I raise 100% of my salary and ministry expenses through monthly partners and one-time gifts. (Growing up as a pastor’s kid, I watched God provide for my parents this same way - now it’s my turn to trust Him!)
This is “exceedingly and abundantly above all I could ask or imagine”. I never even dared to dream the Lord would provide full-time ministry work from my Nebraska home office.
With your monthly support, my Mac stays on, my creativity stays focused, and missionaries keep getting visuals that lead souls to Jesus!
Thank you for celebrating with me. God is SO faithful.
Blessings,
Jennifer Velasco
