Hello friends & family! 

I’m so blessed to have you on this journey with me as we bring the Gospel to those in need. My journey began in college at the University of Wisconsin - Green Bay where I learned what it meant to have a personal relationship with Jesus. I started to learn that almost half of our world’s population had never heard the Gospel - many who come from unreached nations where the name of Jesus is unheard of. I got involved with Bridges International (the international student ministry within Cru) in college and really enjoyed serving, creating a warm and welcoming community for, and encouraging international students as they drew nearer to God.

I took a step of faith and spent 2 summers and 2 more years after I graduated serving college students in East Asia. Since then, I have joined Bridges International as a full time missionary serving international students in the San Francisco Bay Area at Stanford and San José State University. Many of these international students come from unreached nations in South Asia, the Middle East, East Asia, and Africa, and can feel very isolated without friends and family. My hope is that these students would truly know the love of God, and become leaders who will bring the Gospel back to their home countries, communities, and families. 

I’m so excited that you have an interest in what God is doing in the lives of international students. I pray that you will be encouraged as you partner with this ministry!

To Him be All the Glory,

Tasha Ales
