I'm going....

Micah 6:8 "He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”

Beginning in the summer of 2006, God revealed to me His heart for the people of the world—specifically the orphaned and widowed people of the world—when I was able to work with orphans in Kenya and Uganda. I have a burning desire to be His hands and feet to these people. A huge door has opened for me to pursue this passion. I will be graduating in December of 2008. I have been accepted to YWAM’s Discipleship Training School (DTS) which begins January 1st, 2009 and runs through May 29th, 2009. YWAM is the second largest missions organization in the world, training and sending out numerous people to serve Him all over the world.

My particular training base will be located in Kona, Hawaii. The first weeks of the school are weeks of training in which I will be taught how to know God and how to make Him known to the world through such topics as God’s heart for the poor and needy, missions and evangelism, listening to God, and spiritual gifts.

The second part of the DTS consists of a field assignment. The field assignment will take us into the heart of cultural and national conflicts. We will be working alongside fellow Christians who are working to bring reconciliation in places of conflict. The exact location is still unsure, but it will be based on which location is the safest at the time and where God leads each individual. Some of the places that DTS students travel to include Cambodia, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal, Uganda, and Morocco.

I am writing this letter to ask if you would be willing to support me in this adventure. Whether it is through a one time donation, monthly support, or battling for me in prayer, I would sincerely appreciate it.
