Meet Mike Rosser,
Assistant Director of HFA

First, I would just like to say thank you so much for your partnership, your prayers, and the support you give. I wouldn't be able to minister to our Hope for Augusta students and families without your support. It is sobering to think that I am in my 9th year with Hope for Augusta. When I moved to Augusta 9 years ago from the small country town of Monticello Ga, I had no idea how the Lord would use me to impact the students and families of downtown Augusta. I was nervous and did not know anything about Augusta except that Laney and Josey used to beat my high school football team everytime we played and that it could get really hot down here. I was first exposed to doing ministry by Campus Outreach when I came to faith in their college ministry at Georgia Southern. I had no idea that the Lord would call me to urban ministry. I’m so glad He did though. All I knew was I had a passion for reaching and ministering to the underserved and the Lord was sending me out to plant the seeds of the Gospel and trust him to make them grow. 

My time in Augusta has been both rewarding and humbling. Rewarding because God has done some incredible things over the years. One way I have seen God’s faithfulness is in the afterschool program I run. I have been leading my afterschool program at Walton Oaks now for 9 years. I started out with around 8-10 kids and now we have 20-25 kids who faithfully attend Monday-Friday.
