Aloha, thanks for clicking on my fundme page! For those of you who know me personally, know I adore children & have a strong passion & desire for missions work since I was young.  After going on 4 short-term missions trips with my church, the Lord has confirmed this calling on my life more and more to me.  Well, I'm very excited to say that this dream of mine has almost become a reality! I have recently been accepted into Youth With A Mission..aka, YWAM. The foundation of this non-profit organization is "to know God and make Him known".

This October I have the opportunity of a lifetime to spend 3 months in Kona Hawaii training at the Discipleship school and then will be sent out to a country for another 3 months using my skills that I have acquired to practice! Depending on where I'm sent, I may be helping in relief efforts, providing bibles to tribes who have never heard the gospel, or simply loving & taking care of children in orphanages.
In Psalm 72:4 Jesus says to help Him defend the poor and to rescue the children of the needy.

I was able to raise the amount I need to cover the costs of the lecture phase in Kona, but need support of friends and family to make the outreach phase possible. It would be greatly appreciated and a blessing if you could partner with me both financially and prayerfully! 
Thanking you in advance,
~Leanna
