Hi everyone! My name is Ava, and I’ve been given the opportunity to go on a youth trip through my church and exploring other opportunities to do the same this summer

This trip means so much to me because it’s a chance to grow in my faith, see way to serve others, and step outside of my comfort zone to help people in need. I’m excited (and a little nervous!) to see how God will use this experience to teach me and help me love others better.

I’ve been working hard to raise money for this trip, and I’m learning that sometimes asking for help is part of trusting God and my community. Any support—whether through prayer, encouragement, or a donation—would mean the world to me.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for supporting me on this journey. I’m incredibly grateful for each of you and for the chance to represent my church and my faith on this youth trip.

With love and gratitude,

Ava
