My reasons behind sharing this information are threefold:
1. I believe in this program!
2. This is my first January in 3 years I won't be recruiting girls for Pi Phi Epsilon. My recruitment skills would become rusty if I didn't do this!
3. I forgot to add this little blurb in my January newsletter!
If you know any ELCA Lutheran between the age of 19-29 currently scratching their head, looking dumbfounded, or freaking out about what to do with their lives next...might I suggest this little 'ole program for which I'm a current participant?
http://www.elca.org/Who-We-Are/Our-Three-Expressions/Churchwide-Organization/Global-Mission/Engage-in-Global-Mission/Global-Service/Basics-of-Global-Service/Young-Adults.aspx
That's a lot of the information you need to know. I got started with the initial application process right around this time last year. Please let me know if I can answer any questions or be a YAGM mentor to anyone you know who might consider applying.
I will conclude in saying that I have always considered myself in amazing hands with the Global Mission program. Everything from the application process, Discernment weekend, raising funds, orientation, paperwork--- I don't think you'll find a better abroad-service-year organization out there!
That's all from me now. If you are one of few folks who read this blog but aren't currently on my monthly newsletter list, please send me your email and you'll be a subscriber!
Shining my light,
Marta
