Hey everyone,
I'm from the little island of Ireland. For a few years now I've felt an odd calling on my life to do missionary work in New York City. To be honest though, the time never felt "right", nor did I feel overly comfortable about going because of that. Through a long long story and a series of events, I felt the time was right last year, and I applied to do a missionary training course with a group called YWAM. I'm leaving in September.
I was very strong willed about it, that I believed I should WORK to earn all the money - and not take from people (Im not fond of christian beggars). I have, and still am trying, but I know I wont make it - <staff edit>
I am, however, trusting, and in ways you try to outsmart God by thinking of ideas. My church will help me, but we're a very small group (<15). Times like these being in those 'mega churches' really helps. <staff edit>.
Thanks
Matt
