Hello,
I am Joseph Vandal from Warsaw ND, I am asking you for your help to pray for me and support me finically as a missionary for Hard as Nails.
I grew up in a very loving family who always put faith first in our lives. Growing up I never really took my faith as my own, I really only went to mass because my family went. I often got distracted during mass because I thought it was boring and didn’t really understand it. It wasn't till I was 16 that I really took my faith as my own. It was at a retreat called Search. The priest there said in his homily that we are young adults that where leaving home soon and that we had to take reasonability in our faith. I realized that it was up to me and no one else to take action in my life to live my faith.
I didn't really know about Hard as Nails till my brother became a missionary for them. After learning about them I realized how cool they actually were. I never really thought about becoming a missionary till my brother started asking me about becoming a missionary. I said I would think about it but in truth I put that thought on the back burner. I really didn't start thinking about it till God started telling me to go be a missionary. Well long story short I said No to God about going. WELL I figured out the hard way that God does not take no for an answer. Finally, I made a deal with God. I’m a bow hunter for all of you who don't know that. The deal was that I would get to see a Buck that could be a State Record and that I wouldn't get to shoot it. Well that happened I saw the buck and didn't get to shoot it. So finally, I said yes, I would go to Hard as Nails to become a missionary. I realized that after I said yes that my faith life is more important than anything else.
I am asking for your support as a Missionary. The Amount that I need to fundraise as a Missionary is $10,000. I ask for your help finically as well as spiritually. I assure you will all be in my prays.
God Bless
