Hi! I'm Joelle, and I need your financial help to relocate to go back to University to finish my degree to become a Pastor!
#GFMScholarship
What your helping us will bring to the world:
I am seeking to help all the people who are currently in bondage and in pain from all the things we have been emptionally set free from... a portion of my story includes recovering from Narcissistic abuse, PTSD, being fully healed from Celiac Disease (yes all three of us) and being on the road to recovery. A little over a year ago we were moved out of our home by their Dad with almost nothing to our names. Just to be free was a blessing in itself... but it has been a hard go as we've had many things come against us during this past year even after the divorce was finalized.
You can see some of the background story and message me if you want more details. I'm not one to focus on this, but I feel that this may ressonate with you on I'm not looking for a handout, but a way to help so many others break free from the bondage they find themselves in.
Yep, I'm a single Mom of 2... (and Puppy Wiifi)
My story is one of great victory and I'm seeking your help to continue on this path that is calling me to a higher level of discipline, learning and to full restoration of what was stolen from me in my life by the enemy. To return to school be a Pastor so I can give back to HIS kingdom the way God has called me to! Yes, I have accepted this calling and as an act of faith have already started the application process - and with your help we can start our new life in August to be prepared to start school in the fall of this year! I had been accepted to BIOLA Universtity 15 years ago and now I'm ready to reclaim what was taken! It has been a very hard and rough road on sickness, grief and chaos... from which we have been set free from... and now I'm ready to claim my promised land! Will you join me on this quest?
I am not looking for a handout, but a hand up. The short of it is, I am not looking for funds to pay for college, but the seed money to invest into my business to make it so I can be self sustaining to pay for my college and supporting my children.
The background dirt:
You know, the sob story part that we don't like to talk about, but it is the path that we've been given to overcome to VICTORY in Jesus, Praise God. Well, it starts off with my being orphaned as a baby and adopted into a family that well... was a struggle... my being a strong believer at as a child and them being atheist led to many challenges. I'm grateful for all they did for me, but there was a point that I had to let go. I entered in an unhealthy marriage that was Biblically severed last year and he walked away from all 3 of us. Though this is victory really, as I was set free from 30+ years of bondage and oppression on my faith from both my adoptive family and the marriage. My children were also set free and we are all recovering well, Praise God! They both are VERY strong believers and love the Lord with all their heart as well. I am so blessed that they are truly Isaiah 54:13 children being taught of the Lord and their peace is great. Well, during this time I've come to know Christ's love on such an intimate level and have a passion to help others to be set free to know the FULL TRUTH of WHOSE they are.

The ability for me to continue my education means so much to me. I can hardly contain the joy I feel at the opportunity I have been presented to go back to school. I so appreciate your help in making this a reality!
I am grateful for doors opening already! God has been orchestrating this for quite a while. Here are some of the details:
What University?
I am looking at attending Burman University in Lacome, Alberta, Canada. (Second option is Andrews in Michigan).
Why Internationally?
One being that the US Dollar goes farthur right now in Canada and on a student visa I can get my schooling completed at a fraction of the cost and the Pell Grant and school funding is accepted here as well.
What about the boys?
This campus has a wonderful school right on campus for my boys as well. Also, I know that this would be a great experience for us to live in another country for a couple years! Also, their father is in complete support of this adventure abroad.
What Business?
My business is called Bridal Armor. I make and sell T-shirts for weddings, military spouses, as well as for working out and motivational and Christian sayings. I'm also talking with the University staff about how to go about working with them to make this business thrive to pay for our tuitions and living while we attend their schools. To note, I do have other side businesses too, graphics & web design and I drop ship shirts for other online stores as well.
How Much Money?
The minimum I need to move and establish my business is $10,000 abroad. I put a few ideas of what the money will be allocated towards in the wish list.
How soon?
Immediately as well as on going to help us get fully established as you are led. We need to be out of the apartment by the end of July and school starts September 6. So this is coming at a perfect time for us to move in August. I've already started packing and moving furniture to a friend's house who is going to store it while we are abroad.
My deepest gratitude goes to you in your reading my entire synopsis on here and for your support financially and prayerfully. All monies given will be allocated directly to the relocation and business. I have a fairly steady income from my already established shirt business, but it will need to increase to cover tuition costs - thank you for being apart of making this calling a tangible reality for me and my boys!
All donations will receive a FREE Digital Copy of My book, "& the Lord set me Free, Joelle Nichole on Becoming His Butterfly" when it's finished.
May God richly bless you!
