LATEST EPISODE

In this episode of Conversations, we sit down with Martha Valecillos, a seasoned missionary from Venezuela whose life and ministry span more than four decades. Martha shares her powerful journey—from a dramatic encounter with Christ sparked by a miraculous healing in her family, to stepping out in faith as a single mother into global missions. Her story is a compelling testimony of God’s faithfulness through obedience, sacrifice, and trust. Inspired by missionary biographies—especially the lives of Gladys Aylward and William Carey—Martha developed a deep hunger to serve beyond the four walls of the church. Despite rejection, uncertainty, and the challenges of raising a son alone, she followed God’s call and found her place in missions through Youth With A Mission (YWAM).
