the sharon scooI cant believe it, I finally graduated from UC Irvine!
God has abundantly blessed me over these four years
in college, and I am thankful for every minute of my
experience at UCI. But whats next for me?
* * *
I am so excited to say that I will be STINTing for a
year with MK2MK, a part of Campus Crusade
whose primary ministry is to MKs (missionary
kids). I will be based in Orlando, where I will put
my brand new Bachelor of Arts degree to good use.
However, STINT stands for Short Term
INTernational, so I will by no means be stuck in
Orlando; by working with MK2MK I will have the
opportunity to travel to conferences and serve
MKs all over the world.
Missionary kids are uniquethey carry an
understanding of both their passport countries and
the countries that they have lived in. They are the
embodiment of this ages hodgepodge of cultures
and the epitome of globalization. As such, they are
singularly prepared to be the leaders of the next
generation. As an MK myself, I am innately
burdened for other MKs. I believe that God has
specially equipped me to disciple younger MKs by
developing them in their own spiritual journeys
and teaching them that they can have an impact
wherever they are.

FIRST STOP: ARGENTINA
To begin my STINT, I will be going on MK2MKs summer
project to Rosario, Argentina in July. It will be an amazing
opportunity for me to get to know a lot of younger high-
school age MKs who are coming on an MK2MK project for
the first time. We will be encouraging the students on our
project to learn how to share their faith as well as their own
personal testimonyfor many of them, this will be the first
time. I cannot wait to see how God will work in both the
lives of the MKs on the trip AND the lives of those in
Argentina.
WILL YOU JOIN ME?
This upcoming year looks a little daunting, for many
reasons.
1) I will be moving away from California, which hasbecome a new home for me.
2) Its the next step after college, which Im guessingis usually a little nerve-wracking.
3) This will be more than a 5 week trip, it will be ayear-long adventure!
Matthew 28: 19-20
Therefore go and make disciples ofall nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father and of the Son
and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching
them to obey everything I have
commanded you. And surely I am
with you always, to the very end of
the age.

But even with all of these things, I cannot explain how EXCITED I am to take this next step. But I cant do it alone!
I would be thrilled if you would embark on this journey with me. Please pray for me and consider partnering with me
financially. I need to raise$3500 for the trip to Argentina as well as$4300 in one time gifts for STINT. I am
also looking for people to financially support me on a monthly basismy goal is $2000 per month. Please indicate on
the attached card if you will be partnering with me by June 1. I will also be checking in with you by phone sometime
soon. Please make checks payable to Campus Crusade for Christ. Thank you again for all of your prayers and
support! You have already had a huge impact on my life, and for that I am so grateful!
Sincerely,
