My About page is up:
Hello! My name is Hans Mast.
I have roamed this earth for a total of 18 short years. I am from a family of 5, 6, 7, or 8 depending upon how you are counting. I have two living brothers, two sisters (they’re living too), and two parents (imagine that!). I have one brother, Friederick, who died when he was a week old. My oldest brother is a 17 year old named Benji. He is an awesome photographer and runs an awesome photoblog. My next oldest sibling is Heidi, a 15 year old–she’s the musician and artist of the family. She runs a blog as well and is the family event blogger–you’ll probably find out more about my life on her blog than you will on mine. My next sister is Kristi, a 10 year old. A quite amazing 10 year old she is–one of the recent books she has been reading is the
The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (700 pages). My next brother is Dietrich, a 6 year old. He is just plain cool. My dad is Marvin, a businessman (owner of Golden Rule Travel and Communications) and wonderful, wise father who has taught me so much. My mom is Lois, a beautiful, sweet, Godly woman who has impacted my life tremendously.
I am a computer programmer, amateur theologian, and aspiring writer. I love to read, write, think, use computers, discuss, study science (and lots of other things), and play sports (basketball and volleyball are my two favorites, but there are few sports that I don’t enjoy). I am currently attending Sharon Mennonite Bible Institute where I am pursuing a two-year Bible and Theology degree. In April of 2007, I am heading to the Institute for Global Opportunities (IGo) in Chiang Mai, Thailand for eight months. IGo is a basically a missionary training school in which classroom learning will be mixed with practical mission field work while receiving mentoring from veteran missionaries. God has called me (and you! see Matt. 28:18-20; It’s the Great Commission, not the Great Suggestion) to evangelism and I (in consultation with my parents and the Holy Spirit) feel IGo is the best next step in equipping me for that calling. I don’t know where God will lead me into ministry, but I have a feeling because of the skillset and experience he has given me that it will heavily involve technology, writing, and possibly an urban setting.
