#support letter

(Congrats! That’s totally awesome!! I really hope this letter is even nearly half as awesome as you!)

Phoebe! 

I heard about your results, and I just wanted to say… Congratulations! You did it! You made it through another year! And I knew you could do it! You’ve really got quite the life ahead of you. You’re so full of potential. You’ve got the determination and spirit to make it through anything. 

And I can’t wait to watch you continue to learn and grow at your university in the next few years. Realizing all of that amazing potential. As for what might come after that…? 

Well what do you say about coming to work for me? Stark Industries could use a brilliant mind like yours. I honestly can’t think of a better candidate.

So keep it up, Phoebe. You’re gonna do great things. 

Hello tumblr community!!

After much prayer, I will be going on a missions trip this spring break with the college ministry that I’m involved in. This March 24th-30th, me and a team of 13 students and four staffs will be going to Hilo, Hawaii to evangelize and minister to college students at the University of Hawaii, Hilo as well as the local residents in the area. 

Hawaii is an absolutely beautiful place, and it seems to be the last place on earth that needs any missionaries. However, it is especially in that allure of “paradise” where a great many do not know the gospel or may not see the need to. Under the surface of perfection, there exists a deep and underlying brokenness that is crying out for a savior. Ultimately, my team and I hope to experience God’s heart for the people of Hilo and share the gift of His love and forgiveness.

Will you send us by partnering with us financially?

I need to raise $1,575 to cover the flight, food, and other travel costs by March 15th, 2018. You can support me by donating $5, $10, $20 or any amount you feel called to give, to my Paypal at www.paypal.me/belovedashes !! :)

These are three of our prayers that our team would absolutely love for you to pray as well!

Pray that the Lord will instill a loving kindness in me when I interact with the people I meet.

Pray that I wholeheartedly trust and listen to the Holy Spirit as I take steps of faith.

Pray that I will continue to devote time in God’s Word and intimate prayer to the Lord.

If you would like to hear more about this missions trip please feel free to message me! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Thank you in advance for your prayers and support! God bless ♡ - Jas

Ah, Jasmine, 

I hate to hear that you are so unhappy. It hurts these old hearts to know what you are going through. You truly do not deserve the difficulties life has given you. No one as wonderful and kind as you deserves such things. And I know I cannot change the family you were born into, but I believe I can change your situation!

Now listen closely Jasmine. I’m going to come for you, so be ready. Be prepared to disappear at any moment! The TARDIS and I could show up anywhere and at any time. And then we will whisk you away from it all, just like you’ve always dreamed. So where would you like to go, Jasmine? Or when? It’s all up to you. Would you like to visit the Spires of Kathdran? Or fight with the Three Musketeers in the 17th century? Or see what you humans do with oranges in 390 years? Don’t worry, we have time to see them all. 

Chin up, Jasmine. I’ll be there soon.

To The Honorable Judge [Last Name],

I am writing this letter in support of my friend, [Defendant’s Full Name], who is currently before you regarding [the case or charges]. I have known [him/her/them] for [number of years], and in that time I have come to know [him/her/them] as a caring, loyal, and genuinely good-hearted person.

The situation that brings [Defendant’s First Name] before the Court does not reflect the person I know. Throughout our friendship, [he/she/they] has shown qualities such as kindness, responsibility, and a sincere desire to do better in life. I have personally witnessed [him/her/them] working hard to grow, improve, and take positive steps forward.

I understand the seriousness of the matter, but I also believe that [Defendant’s First Name] has the capacity and willingness to change. [He/She/They] has expressed genuine remorse and has been actively working toward better choices and a more stable future. I truly believe that with support and guidance, [he/she/they] can continue moving in the right direction.

I respectfully ask the Court to consider leniency and the opportunity for [Defendant’s First Name] to demonstrate that this experience has been a turning point. I believe that allowing [him/her/them] to continue rebuilding [his/her/their] life will not only benefit [him/her/them] but also the community as a whole.

Thank you for your time and consideration

Respectfully,

[Your Signature]

Okay, that’s interesting. Are you sure that you don’t have any other special circumstances? Usually the only time they ask for a letter is when they need supporting evidence. And do you know if it’s OSAP asking for the letter or York?

Good luck! And feel free to let us know what you find out so we can use it for future reference :)

Hello friends,

Below is my letter asking for support through prayer and finances that I have been sending out the past month. If you would like one, along with more information about the YAV program, please email me at [email protected]

I am thrilled to tell you that I have been chosen by the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to serve for one year as a Young Adult Volunteer in New Orleans, Louisiana! As part of this exciting commitment, I have to raise at least $3,000 in gifts and pledges for my year of service, and I am hoping that you will join me on my journey by supporting me in this effort.

  Through the Young Adult Volunteer program (YAV) of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), I will be joining over 70 other young adults serving at 16 different sites both domestically and internationally. While I am still learning my specific responsibilities, I will be working in two part-time positions. One of my positions is at the First Presbyterian Church of New Orleans working on the Christian Education committee and helping run their homeless ministry. My second position is working with the non-profit Mid-City Ministries where I will be helping run an after school program tutoring program for elementary school students.

  I am definitely anticipating this year will be life-changing for me. Although I have experience working with children and in Christian education, I know that I will be challenged and have to step outside of my comfort zone. My focus will be on helping meet the needs of others. I will be challenged to trust God in new ways through this process. I am eager to see what God has in store this year for all of the YAV’s and in the ministries that we are participating.

  As I am beginning to write this new chapter in my life, I am inviting you on this journey with me. I am inviting you to be a partner in ministry with me. I hope you prayerfully consider making a gift or a pledge toward my financial support. The timing is critical as I need to raise $2,000 by July 1.

  I have enclosed a special flyer that includes more information about the YAV program and my own reasons for wanting to serve. I am also including a Covenant of Support form and ask that you consider making a gift or pledge. I invite you to please pray about becoming a partner in ministry with me for this year.

  I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for your consideration, prayers, and hopefully your support as well!

  In gratitude,
