I am thankful for the time I have spent here in the "LIFE Training" program with the "HELP for all Nations (HfaN)" team, it has really changed me. I left behind my old life on the streets, a hopeless life full of violence, fear, drugs, and restlessness.
I was touched by the heart of Jesus as it was shown through his followers and have been led into a new life where I've come to know hope, peace, and a love for people and God that inspires me to help others make better choices and overcome the darkness in their lives. I have developed a passion for serving people through ministry and it is what I want to do with my life.
I seek to become a full time staff member here with Help for all Nations. HfaN was actually founded by a team sent out by, and still a part of, the international missions branch of the German fellowship "FCJG (Free Christian Youth Fellowship)" known there as "HELP International". So it seems right to everyone that I should spend some time connecting with that ministry while receiving additional training.
I am planning a trip to Germany where I will attend the 20 years of HELP International celebration. While in Germany I will receive training at their "FCJG School of Evangelism and Mission" that our leadership here at HfaN have all attended. I also intend to do an internship at their "FCJG Wiedenhof rehabilitation center".
I am now seeking to raise support in the financing of this journey. This will be an awesome opportunity to expand my connections within this organization as well as further develop my skills as I prepare to go into the ministry. I expect all in all I will spent eight to twelve weeks trying to absorb as much as possible while I live, learn, love and serve alongside the fellowship there in Germany.
I am so thankful to God for all his people that have made my new life and this opportunity possible. I greatfully welcome any support that you are moved to offer in finances, prayer or guidance. Thank you for your time and consideration and I pray that the Lord bless and keep you in all you do.
Sincerely,
Chris Shirey
