Leah Townsend
Brisbane, Australia
CAMPUS OUTREACH | BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA
Leah moved to Houston in 2014, where she got a degree at Houston Baptist University. During her sophomore year of college, God used a woman on staff with Campus Outreach to interrupt Leah’s life. The truth of the gospel led Leah to repentance, and she put her faith in Christ. She learned how to daily walk with Christ, apply and teach Scripture, and share her faith. Leah’s vision for ministry is for women from every tribe, tongue, and nation to see their brokenness and need for a Savior, turn from their sin, and chase after God. She wants to be a part of God interrupting people’s lives in Brisbane, Australia just as He interrupted her life. She will be spending most of her time on campus meeting and developing relationships with native Australian students as well as international students.
Ways to Pray
- Please pray for deep relationships to be formed with students in Australia despite any cultural or religious differences.
- Pray for God to soften the hearts of the students, so that they may be warm to Leah as well as the gospel.
- Pray doors would open for relationships with international students, Unreached people groups, and non-religious students.
- Pray for the Australia team, that we would walk faithfully with the Lord and ultimately be driven to compassion for those around us because of His love for us.
