About Me

¡Buenas, mi nombre es Gabriela Vijil!

I was born in Honduras, Central America and grew up there as a missionary kid until I was 10 years old. Growing up in an impoverished area of Honduras, I watched how my parents provided for the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of those that lived around us. It instilled in me a heart of compassion for people and a passion for teaching the Gospel. Still, when I was a kid, I had never considered being a missionary when I grew up. It was not until I was sixteen that God called me into the mission field of Latin America.

For the past several years, I have been earnestly pursuing God’s calling on my life to be a missionary. I earned a degree in Early Childhood Education and Biblical Studies from Cincinnati Christian University to better equip myself for the mission field. I also took many opportunities to work in ministry through internships in children’s ministry and leading worship for a Hispanic church.

My greatest desire is to teach children the Bible and help them build a deep relationship with God. I also want to equip others (especially parents) with the knowledge and the tools to teach the next generation of Christ followers. Ultimately, I hope that my work will glorify God and expand His kingdom.
