Welcome to Zach and Rachel's Fundraising Page
Joins us as a financial partner in our call to ministry as missionaries in Central Europe!
With your financial support, we are helping shape the next generation of leaders in the United States. These young adults will go on to careers and business, science, agriculture, customer facing industries, as well as ministerial work. We are training them to see the world through a faith lens that allows them to see their impact on the world, both good and bad. After spending time in our program, these volunteers have a better understanding of privilege in the world, as well as systems that oppress and empower people.
Perhaps most importantly, after this year of service, the volunteers have a better idea of what roles their privilege may or may not play in how they interact with the world, as well as what role they may play in empowering or oppressive systems. Because of this, they return to the United States in a better position to think critically and actively participate in social, political, and religious life.
About Young Adults in Global Mission
It costs an average of $80,000 USD each year to support a missionary household. We are fully supported by the church to do this work, and it is your money that makes this possible. Every penny you donate will go toward supporting our work here in Central Europe.
The ELCA’s Young Adults in Global Mission program provides young adults, ages 21-29, the opportunity to grow in their faith and work hand-in-hand with our global companions. Young adults in the program serve in churches, schools and social service ministries. Currently the program is engaged in work in Argentina/Uruguay, Australia, Cambodia, Central Europe, Jerusalem/West Bank, Madagascar, Mexico, Rwanda, Senegal, Southern Africa and the United Kingdom.
