Nicki Smith

Hi, I'm Nicki! I grew up in Oregon, USA with a love for the outdoors and a desire to see the world. God's love & truth pursued me and I became a follower of Jesus while at university. After Uni, I joined YWAM in New Zealand. God took me deeper as I grew to know His love & faithfulness and His heart for the nations. 

During my time with YWAM, I discovered a people group that I am deeply passionate about: BACKPACKERS!!! My interactions with these world travelers has shown me that they are open, on a journey to find truth, and seeking Jesus, the Messiah. I have a heart for these travelers and a vision to see them transformed by God.
