What started as a wedding invitation turned into a divine assignment.

Earlier this year, my wife and I attended a friend’s wedding in Florida—beautiful, full of joy, and spiritually rich. The ceremony was officiated by a pastor from South Africa named Ryan. We didn’t know it at the time, but our conversations with him would change everything.

Over the course of the weekend, we spoke multiple times. He began to share stories—real, heartbreaking stories—about what life is like for so many in South Africa.

He told us about mothers walking away from their children.
Children raising children.
Communities overwhelmed with need.

As he spoke, it was clear: this wasn’t just information—it was an invitation.

One conversation led to another, and by the end of that weekend, I was invited to preach at his church, New Life Church Emalahleni, in South Africa. That alone was an honor.

Once we spoke further about potential dates in May it just so happened my dates aligned perfectly with their yearly missions trip to Eswatini!

Now, this May, we’ll be spending 9 days in South Africa and Eswatini, preaching, serving, and pouring into communities alongside Pastor Ryan and his team. This trip is not a vacation or a photo op—it’s a mission.

We're not going as Taylor & Mo … we're going as representatives of something greater:

This is the heart of Built to Serve God.

Our mission has always been clear: to live out the Gospel through lifestyle, movement, and service. This trip is not a side project—it’s the launch of the movement in action.

Why We're Fundraising

The cost of our travel is already covered—this isn’t about getting us there.
This is about what we bring when we show up.

Every dollar raised will go directly toward:

Outreach materials and resources for ministry
Supplies for children and families in Eswatini
Support for the local church and leaders we partner with
Acts of service that bring dignity, hope, and the Gospel to real people

We're asking you to partner with us—not just to give, but to go in Spirit.
To sow into good ground.
To help meet needs.
To help love people the way Jesus would.

Let’s move with purpose. Let’s serve together. We are Built to Serve God.
