Team Member Profile - Moriah Obrecht

Moriah Obrecht is 18, and lives with her parents in Highlands Ranch, CO. She was born and raised in Colorado, and has hopes to branch out as a missionary later on in live. She will be attending Torchbearers Bible School in Fraser, CO. It is a one year program preparing students for the missions field, college, and just life in general! She loves photography, singing, and doing things at the church.

She wants to get a degree in Sacred Music at Moody Bible Institute after she graduates from Torchbearers in hopes of starting a choir ministry in churches in Eastern Europe. She believes that choir in churches is a lost ministry that should be brought back in hopes of showing Christ’s love through music, and giving Him glory through it as well.

Moriah has been to the Czech Republic two times, and has enjoyed every part of both trips. The first year she went, 2009, was with the Cherry Hills Community Church choir and it was the hook, line, and sinker to her new-found ambition to join in eastern European missions. The second year she went was with the ex-Cherry Hills youth pastor Matt Hartman, who will be moving to Czech this year. Josiah Venture was the organization that got them there, and she loved that trip even more than the first! She was pushed in ways that she can’t even express; in physical, emotional, and most of all, spiritual attributes.

Every year gets better and better, and Moriah hopes to get the chance to be a true leader for the students at Fusion camp! She is preparing herself to be surprised in magnificent ways, and is praying for a chance for the students to see Christ's love in her every day that she is there.

Please keep Moriah in your prayers as she tries her hardest to show God’s love! She appreciates all of the support she has been getting from all of her loved ones, and hopes that the relationship stays firm as she tries to continue the path of pursuing joining Josiah Venture as a missionary!
