Gabriel Westall

After graduating from Linfield in 2015, Gabriel attended Azusa Pacific University but left two years later to become a missionary with Youth With A Mission, an organization based in Kona, Hawaii. He then traveled all around the United States sharing the gospel at college campuses, in churches, and around local communities. He also spent two and a half months serving in the Philippines where he and his team had the opportunity to preach the gospel and see thousands receive Jesus in their hearts!

When he was at Linfield, Gabriel made the most of every opportunity. He played varsity football, competed with the track and field team, and performed in multiple productions with the Fine Arts department. He says, "Linfield was the launching place for me to go out into the world and do what I am doing today. It is truly a place that sets its values on things above. While academics are, of course, a pivotal part of what you do at Linfield, I appreciate how our walk with Christ was prioritized above anything else. My time there was filled with learning and growing and understanding more and more of who Jesus is, and I am forever grateful for the faculty at Linfield and for how they poured into my life."
