-In Loving Memory of Jenna Silva-

Mike & Crystal's oldest daughter, Jenna, passed away on September 20, 2024, after a courageous three-and-a-half-year journey with stage four colon cancer. She is now in heaven with her Savior, free from pain and full of peace.  

Jenna's beautiful life was marked by her radiant joy, her love for her family and friends, and her devotion to sharing the love of Jesus with the world. For all who knew and loved her, we hold onto the promise that, though we grieve, we do not grieve without hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13), for we will see Jenna again in the presence of our Lord.

From day one of Jenna’s diagnosis in April 2021, until the day the Lord called her home, Jenna wanted to make it count. She was passionate about the work of evangelism and spent over a decade serving alongside her dad and the MSI family.
 
Jenna not only had an evangelistic heart, but she also had a compassionate heart. She was compelled to help people and communities around the world living in poverty. Jenna’s vision extended to providing safe water sources like wells, distributing food and clothing, supporting orphanages, and engaging in disaster relief and aid. This desire to help others led to the launch of Help Nations in September 2019. A year and a half later Jenna found out she had stage four inoperable colon cancer. That diagnosis began a rollercoaster of a journey, halting all plans for Help Nations.

Although Jenna did not get to see her dream realized, the Help Nations Board of Directors is dedicated to carrying forward her legacy.

We invite those who feel led to honor Jenna’s life by supporting the organizations she was so passionate about. Donations can be made to:
