Andrea Johnson
Andrea was born and raised in
Glendora, CA, a suburb of Los Angeles. She is a junior Christian Ministries
major at Azusa Pacific University. Andrea has been on numerous mission trips to
Mexico and one to West Virginia. Her experience working with youth has been
primarily at the elementary age level, including a Christian after-school
program and many summers of Vacation Bible School. Her desire is to be a full-time
urban missionary after graduation, in a location that God has yet to disclose.
She enjoys snowboarding, water sports, reading, and attempting to play guitar.
As a City Host, Andrea hopes to share her passion for the homeless with the junior
high and high school students in a way that will make them excited about serving God
and His people on their trip and for the rest of their lives. Her desire is to gain
ministry experience that can't be taught in a classroom.
