Just so you know... (online donation and more about Montana)


Some people are naturally tech savvy, I am not one of those people (that’s right, not all millennials are good with technology). However, fingers crossed, I have figured out a way to put a link on my blog. If you click on this link and nothing happens, do not be alarmed. It should not take extra energy to copy and paste the link in another tab (even I can do that, and I have no ounce of tech savvy genes in my body)


Once you see that this link goes to by online donation, some of you may very well click away. Before that happens, let me at explain the point of donating. As most of you know by my blog (or by knowing me in person), you know that I am going to Chinook, Montana come August. As a yav, I will be serving the Kingdom of God by working with elementary, youth, and senior citizens. I chose Montana as my site of service at for several reasons. Besides the fact that I will get out of the Midwest (goodbye cornfields!), I will also have the chance to work with a diverse age range. However, the main reason why I chose Chinook is that I felt like there was an emphasis on spiritual discernment.  While other sites value spiritual discernment, I felt a calling, or nudge, that Chinook would be the best site for me as far as spiritual discernment goes. Spiritual discernment and spiritual direction is something that I am very interested in. Trust me, I’ve already thought about seminary. I believe I have a gift for empathizing with others, and listening to the people that society often forgets about. I believe my experience there will give me what I need in order to heal this world one broken soul at a time.

If you wish to learn more about the Chinook site, click here and hopefully it should pop up (keyword hopefully):


I realize that money may be a sensitive subject for some people who are reading this blog. Believe me, I get it! I am a college grad with a boatload of student debt. So I’m not going to force anyone to donate to me if they don’t want to. But for those who donate, I am grateful for your financial support, and for those who don’t, I am grateful that you took the time to read my blog (as someone who enjoys writing it means a lot). I appreciate all the emotional support I can get.

Until August,

Julia
