Julia was raised in a Christian home near London, England. She studied the arts (drama, dance, art) and took a degree in Theatre Design in 2003-2006. In September 2005 she accepted Christ as her Saviour. She got involved with her first ‘aid camp’ in India in 2007 where she worked alongside a physiotherapist for three months. This followed with a 2 month trip to Sri-Lanka teaching English, Art & Dance to children who were victims of the 2004 tsunami. In November 2007 Julia went on another aid camp to Cameroon to build a school, all the while her passion for working in a developing world context was growing.
In April 2009 she where she met TCM leaders Don Sommer and Ben Anderson. That summer she traveled to Kenya with Africa Safari. This trip was her first with a Christian team and in a tiny church in the Rift Valley, she knew that the Lord had called her heart into cross-cultural ministry. She made two more trips to India while studying a course in physiotherapy. After a year and a half she had to leave the course, remembering the story of Missionary Gladys Aylward, “Keep going even in the face of adversity!!”
Julia started at All Nations Christian College in 2012, taking her internship with TCM for their teaching of the Grace message and to learn more about the way their missionaries work firsthand. She was blessed with a two-month trip across Southeast Asia visiting the Killions, the Heaths and for the internship she worked alongside Myra Omictin. By the summer of 2014 she had applied to TCM for cross-cultural work. Now Julia is in America sharing about the Lord’s leading in the lives of those who are willing! Eph. 2:10!
