Have you ever had the crazy notion that you can make a difference in the world?
Who me?
But how?
No way, Jose!
Insert all the doubt. BUT GOD. He’s persistent, isn’t he? And thankfully he’s patient too. When his whisper became a holler, and his gentle tug became a shove. We are left with no other choice but to obey.
I am on a mission to deliver messages and resources to women in every nation, regardless of their location, language, or Christian status. I want to see them set free and on fire for Jesus. So they can wake up and walk it out!
15 years ago, my husband Brian and I took a giant-sized leap of faith and started NOW HOPE, a global discipleship ministry. NOW HOPE is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in the United States. Since then we’ve traveled to over 50 countries and ministered to thousands of people.
Our aim is clear: Love God + Love People.
Our focus is simple: Preach the Gospel + Make Disciples.
There is no plan B.
There is no retirement.
There is no stopping us.
We are all in.
Will you help us draw others one step closer to Jesus?
The Drive Behind Our Mission
Melissachu.org is a ministry arm of NOW HOPE and funded by the generosity of donors.
"I have witnessed the Holy Spirit transform women around the globe in Mongolia, India, Kenya, Brazil, Honduras, Romania and beyond. I desire to be used by God to spread a mighty move of the spirit for women around the world! – Melissa"
NOW HOPE DOES NOT DISAPPOINT, BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD HAS BEEN POURED OUT IN OUR HEARTS BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO WAS GIVEN TO US. ROMANS 5:5
I discovered that real adventure begins when your spirit leaps, your soul is set on fire. That real living is being set free by the power of the Holy Spirit living inside of you. For realz, I can't make this stuff up. Don't just take my word for it, trust Him and he'll show you too.
This holy rolling stuff is better than any drug, drink or high that money can buy (I would know cuz I tried them all). I wanna shout it from the roof-tops and tell women all around the world "You are worthy. God has a plan for your life!" I literally aim to fly to every nation – 48 countries and counting so far. I want them to know their purpose is big and meant to shine bright. God knew you before you were born and custom made an adventure just for you.
I'm here for you: through blogs, your inbox, social feeds, quirky videos, conferences, and events. "I'm on the hunt; I'm after you." And all my 80's ladies just sang that line (sorry, not sorry). But seriously, walk with me, friend. Let's do life together. Let's get right with God and real about Jesus...and see what happens. I'm not saying I've got it all figured out (and my kids just shouted, ‘Amen!’). But I choose to live out loud and share what I've got - making mistakes so you don't have to and pointing you one step closer to Jesus every step of the way.
You see my purpose is to speak life into the places you've lost, forgotten, or tucked away. I'm here to introduce you to our living God who longs to awaken your dreams and activate your purpose. I invite you to rise up, take courage and live different with me.
Sister, I can't wait to see you shine! The world is waiting for the confident, bold, beautiful YOU.
