I was sitting in my bed, on the verge of tears! Why? Well, this may seem simple, but it was all because I wanted to do something Epic this summer!
Im going off to college this coming fall, so this summer is basically my last before I have to take summer classes, which is a bit depressing. So, I wanted to do something, anything, something I could look back on and say "Wow, that was awesome"? But what?
I've been thinking about it, googling it, and praying about it, but was having no luck till this afternoon! A light bulb came on...SHEAVES FOR CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!
Sheaves for Christ is the fundraising ministry of the General Youth Division of the United Pentecostal Church International. Since its establishment in 1952, over $103 million has been raised to fund missions and ministries around the world. I decided I wanted to be apart of that.
My church is one of the largest in my section, yet I noticed we never really raised a whole lot for SFC! I want to change that this summer!
My Idea: Get my youth involved and excited about it! Do fun things that get them wanting to be apart of it! Put posters up showing how much we've made and how much we want to make. Fundraising galore, from Car Washes to Silent Auctions, Walk-A-Thons, and Bidding Youth Leaders to do crazy things lol :)
I'm going the whole 9 yards, and I encourage you to do something EPIC this summer too!!!!!!!!
With Love,
Ally
