Donation Opportunities and YOUR Chance to Rep Some AWESOME Stuff!

Ok, so if you're just tuning in, God's blessed me with the opportunity to go on a mission trip this summer with Visiting Orphans.

The trip, of course, isn't free, SO this is where you come in!

I'm offering a couple really easy ways to help out, AND you don't just have to dish out our dough to get nothing in return.

Here's two big ways you can donate to my trip:

#1: Buy some Visiting Orphans apparel and create awareness for orphans across the world

First, go to http://www.visitingorphans.org and click on the "Store" Tab. Next, check out some really awesome apparel from VO. Here are some examples of the shirts they sell [There are more on the website, but you'll have to hop on over to their site to check them out :) ]

Men's                                                                             Women's 

            

Now, here's how this helps me: When you check out (because all of you are totally going to buy some awesome stuff, RIGHT?) there will be a section that says Donation Information. There'll be a line that you can choose our trip Costa Rica-July 16 and than after that a place where you can put my name: Ellie Billman.

It should look like this:



#2 Way you can help:

We (as in AJ and I) had those nifty Livestrong-like silicon bracelets made to sell for the trip. The say...drumroll please...Yahweh Swag on one side, and Matthew 28:16-20 aka the Great Commission.

For you older generation (no offense, haha) swag is defined as "The way in which you carry yourself. Swag is made up of your overall confidence, style, and demeanor." So, if you're a Christian you have Yahweh swag because who you are in Christ makes up your overall confidence, style, and demeanor. 


If you care to rep your Yahweh swag with a stylish, comfortable, supa cool (am I making a convincing case?) bracelet for $5 in support of our mission trip, then comment on this post and I'll be happy to get one to you, one way or another. 


Just as a side note, these bracelets could be a great conversation starter if you're trying to tell others about Jesus and His AWESOME ability to give us Yahweh swag through His saving grace. 


Here's what they look like: 































Doesn't get much cooler than this people!
