Forward Movement- FBC & Crossroads DTS Ministry and Training 2021 to 2022

Jesus, Christ, God, Holy, Spirit, Bible, Gospel 

Aloha Ohana and Mele Kalikimaka

Thank you to all who are lifting me up in your prayers. So much forward movement has happened for me in the past few weeks as far as clarity/direction in ministry and training commitments for the coming year and half; and today I have access to a computer so I can finally share with you! I think it's really exciting!

I applied and was accepted to the YWAM Kona Foundations of Biblical Counseling (FBC) course, it begins Jan. 7, 2021. I have also committed to staff Crossroads DTS here in Kona September 2021 and January 2022. Miraculously, I am eligible for a staff education discount, which drastically reduces the cost for the FBC training phase (regular cost: $ 4,395; my cost after discount $559). I have a great story of how God made this discount possible for me if you want to hear it!👏

Please consider if the Lord is calling you to partner with me, short term or long term, through prayer or financial support. Below are details about ways to give financially, estimated expenses and prayer requests:

Ways to Give

1. Donate through my Venmo account

  • User name: @Jenna-Patnott

2. A check made out to me. 

  • Mailed to my bank Lake Michigan Credit Union. (Include a note that says "To be deposited into account") Address: LMCU PO Box, PO Box 2848, Grand Rapids, MI 49501
  • Or to my Kona address: 75-346 Hualalai Rd #103, Kailua Kona, HI 96740

3. Tax Deductible donation to be processed as deputized fundraising through YWAM El Paso-Juarez Mission account. If you want to use this option email me and I will send you the detailed info for how to do this! (Disclaimer: “Contributions are solicited with the understanding that YWAM EPJ has complete discretion and control over the use of all donated funds. It is the policy and intent of YWAM EPJ’s Board to honor preferences as to how donations will be used.”)
