I was recently nominated by my church to be a part of a program at Calvin Theological Seminary called "Facing Your Future". It is a month-long program with about 50 other junior and senior high school students to explore ministry, Christianity, and theology, and to discern our calling. I applied, and just found out that I have been accepted! I'm really excited for this opportunity to grow in my faith and especially for the last week, which is an 'excursion' week where we go on a trip to either Texas, Oregon, or Canada and have a week of ministry abroad. I can't wait to form a community with other passionate Christians and learn and grow with them!

Maaike! I'm so excited for you! I did this same program in 1999 and it was an awesome experience. We traveled to Israel (the year after us went to Turkey--my husband attended that year) and then they make a shift towards a mission opportunity. Your life will be changed.
