Support my YAGM year!

Thank you for caring and following along with my YAGM journey! Your interest and support mean the absolute world to me as I have the opportunity and joy to share my experience alongside my host community with you all.  If you feel called to support my YAGM year further, there are a couple of different ways.

Simply reading about my YAGM experience is already a huge support, so thank you for following along! Thoughts, prayers, encouragements, and well wishes are all welcome comforts as I navigate my YAGM year :) Letters and cards (message me for my address), wholesome emails, song recommendations, devotions, Bible verses, and poems are also more than appreciated!!

Additionally, the total cost for one young adult in the program is $18,000. This cost includes round-trip flights to our countries of service, room & board, basic medical insurance, periodic cohort retreats & visa renewal, a meal/transportation stipend, and training. Each YAGM volunteer is required to raise at least $6,000 USD to support their year of service, with the ELCA offsetting the rest. Additional funds will help support other young adult volunteers and the future of the Young Adults in Global Mission program. 

If you would prayerfully consider donating, I would greatly appreciate it! To give by mail, please make your check out to “ELCA” and on the memo line, please include [YAGM – GCS3566]. Send checks to Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, ELCA Gift Processing, P.O. Box 1809, Merrifield, VA, 22116-8009.
