MIA AUGSBURGER
PERSONAL UPDATE
All praise to God! He called me to ministry at the age of 17 in my Midwest hometown in 2019. To then expose the gift of action sports in Southern California in 2020. Then, in 2023, he led me to a ministry in Florida that aligns with my heart's desires. What a privilege it has been to share the Good news through the desires the Lord has uniquely placed on my heart - surfing & coffee! It has been an absolute joy to serve as the shop manager at Ride Nature for the last two and a half years. During this time, I have seen the Lord move in radical ways, from behind a coffee bar to the local surf breaks!
With time, my heart has continually been stirred up to go back to Southern California. In this season, I believe the Lord has pruned, equipped, and prepared my heart to continue the good work through the efforts of our Ride Nature base in Oceanside, California. I am expectant for what the Lord has in store as I will fill a new position there, as the women’s discipleship house Resident Assistant (RA), as well as lead local outreach!
As the Lord has been preparing my heart, I believe he is also preparing prayer and financial supporters to come alongside in this transition. Above all, I would like to invite you to pray with me in the midst of this transition. Please partner in prayer as the Lord continues to prepare me to step into the culture of Southern California and give me the steadfastness to press into His strength in the discomfort of transition. Please also pray that this step of faith may be a testimony to others, pointing them to the miraculous goodness of God.
As each staff member steps out in faith to raise support for their salaries, I will continue to do the same! With a cost-of-living increase of 65% from Fort Myers to Oceanside, I am currently believing for a monthly goal of $3,500. I would love to invite you to join in what God is doing by becoming a financial partner. I am incredibly thankful for your prayers and generosity as I walk out the calling the Lord has placed on my life. You can trust that your financial investment is being used to share the Gospel, grow the Kingdom of God, and make Disciples of Jesus to the ends of the earth!
I am so grateful for any gift you feel the Lord leading you to give, but it will absolutely be the strength of the steadfast monthly partners that will allow me to fully commit time, zeal, and ultimately my life to the mission of sharing the Gospel and making disciples through action sports. If I am certain of anything, it is the truth of the living gospel at work in my life and the calling to carry it to those in the action sports communities. Thank you for your prayers and generosity as we collaborate to bring the Gospel to the ends of the earth!
To the ENDS!
