Sheridan's Trail-less Journey
Donation protected
Hi everyone! My name is Sheridan, and I'm asking for your support.
What's Happening: A six month service oriented training course where the focus is on "trail-less" activities such as rock climbing, hiking, and backpacking ending with a global outreach to a remote location(s).
Where Am I Going: Nurnberg, Germany. Outreach location TBD.
When Is It : March 18-late August 2017.
Details: I graduated high school in May 2016 with the intention of taking a Super Senior/Gap Year. My plan has been to train for USA Weightlifting Junior Nationals, and to serve internationally before potentially enlisting in the United States Coast Guard. After months of research, I had yet to find anything that seemed right for me. With Nationals quickly approaching in February, it was time for me to finalize my next course of action.
This brings me to Youth With A Mission (YWAM).
YWAM is a world wide christian organization that specializes in equipping young people for serving the world. A DTS (Discipleship Training School) is a full time 5-6 months program that has 2 phases. In the lecture phase, students learn about God and prepare themselves for the outreach phase. During oureach phase everything learned during the classroom time is applied.
Currently, the destination of the outreach is undecided. However, my DTS will focus on adventurous outdoor activities such as rock climbing and hiking. Not only do I get to serve an unfamiliar culture during the outreach, but I get to challenge my faith and discover more about God while engaging in the great outdoors.
Request: I need prayer and financial support. Would you please pray for me before and during my DTS? Would you please contribute to my fund? I am confident that God will provide my needs through my family, my friends and our ability to network and connect. If I can reach around 530 people who are willing to give $15, this will be an easy task to fund my journey. This fundraiser will cover the travel costs, the school fees, and the gear I need.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and for prayerfully considering supporting me on this journey. I can't wait to see what God has in store for me in the upcoming year!
With Gratitude,
Sheridan
