Weston Moves to Manila

I believe that my life purpose is to help those in need. I believe that God will use me to impact nations. I want to make a difference in the lives of people around the world, so that through love and generosity, they may know God.
I am enrolled in the Global Business degree program at The University of Texas at Dallas. Part of my degree is to complete an internship as well as an international trip. If my internship is in a foreign country, then it will fulfill both requirements.
The purpose of this internship is to become familiar with and exposed to the viabilities of Global Business in a foreign culture. I am seeking an internship that will require me to adjust to some barriers including but not limited to language, cultural customs, and written vocabulary.
I cannot do this alone. I believe any vision that does not require the efforts of more than oneself is a vision that is too weak and not God inspired. If you would like to invest into what is my life's purpose, then here is how you can help.
Pray: First and foremost, I am going to need your prayers. I need the wisdom of God to listen and learn. I need prayers for protection and provision.
Share: Please share this link and the video so that other people can pray and believe for great things to be done this summer.
Invest: This is an incredible opportunity for me to get a taste of what lies beyond my degree. I would like to extend the invitation to you to invest into this incredible opportunity to for me to grow, learn, connect, and succeed.
Below is more detailed information about what this Summer internship will entail.

This opportunity is provided by Dr. David Sopbrepeña, who is the founder and president, of Word of Hope Ministries located in Manila, Philippines.

Prior to founding Word of Hope Ministries, Dr. Sopbrepeña was employed in the financial services sector in Dallas, TX.
Word of Hope Ministries was founded in 1988. This ministry has grown consistently from just a hand-full of people to include a 40,000 member church, hospital, national feeding program, orphan care, microloan assistance, and a college. Dr. Sopbrepeña is a global leader in great demand; he speaks and mentors thousands of leaders around the world and is considered by many a foremost leadership expert.

4. Understand the national economic priorities of a workforce that average $5 USD per day as income.
5. Understand how a non-profit, charitable, religious organization can successfully span governmental inconsistency, economic instability, judicial/legislative corruption to become a global leader in providing care, compassion, relief, and hope on a national platform, whose constituents are spread across 7,000 islands, 19 languages, and 120,000 sq. mi.
6. Understand how I can make a difference in the world though developing my global business acumen.
