Support Olivia's Journey to Joshua Wilderness Institute

Dear Donors :)

Hi my name is Olivia! I am so excited to announce that I have been accepted to the Joshua Wilderness Institute for the 2025-2026 year! This is a 9-month discipleship program located in the Sequoia National Forest at Hume Christian Camps. JWl exists to disciple young adults toward loving God and His Word to set a foundation for a life worthy of the gospel. I will be living in a beautiful place with 40-50 other students, taking Bible classes, learning from various speakers, going on different trips, working in all of the different departments of camp, and more. In the program, I hope to learn about all the ways God works in the world and in my life, how I can bring other people to God, show them who God is and grow in my relationship with Him. I am beyond excited to see what God does in and through my time there! One of the ways we will be applying what we learn in the building, is through our service and learning trips. We take five trips throughout the program, three domestic and two international. In the United States, we participate in a formational camping trip at the beginning of the year, do work projects at Hume SoCal, and experience different cultures, service, and evangelism opportunities in Inner-City LA. Internationally, we work alongside missionaries to practically serve and share the gospel with communities in the Dominican Republic. We then finish the year with a two-week geography and study tour of Israel (potentially Turkey instead of Israel). I am so excited to be able to share the gospel around the world and touch the hearts of others who have not heard of the gospel. I am also so grateful for the opportunity to grow in my walk with God and help communities of people in God's name. As I think through this next chapter of my life, I strongly desire my community to be a part of this journey alongside me. There are a few ways that I would love to invite you to help send me as I follow the Lord in this way. First, I invite you to please pray for me. Please pray for my time at Joshua as well as the people and communities we will be touching the hearts of and showing the gospel to. Your prayers mean the world to me and I am so thankful for your partnership in this way. Second, I invite you to help send me financially. This program costs $25,000. While my intention is to work to cover as much of the tuition as I can, it won't be enough to cover the total cost. This includes all my classes, room and board, travel, and trips. Would you consider helping me financially? Please consider donating to my GoFundMe.
