Why do I aspire to do social work on the mission field?
For the safety of little children like this one. Knowing that this little boy has two parents who love and provide for him is important. This child will have the ability to grow up in an environment with nurture, food and clothing, and where he has the security to develop and experience life to the full because his first basic emotional and physical needs are met in a stable home.
I aspire to provide a special caring companionship for the elderly who have lost so much and feel so alone. I am passionate that the people need to see how valuable and important their elderly are. I would love to help a downtrodden or sad elderly person find opportunities and bring life to those around them, while releasing positive endorphins to strengthen them as well.
I aspire to be a mentor to young preteen girls, helping them to set boundaries in relationships and in life, and helping them with different issues in their families and lives. I also believe that each one of these young girls need to feel safe, have education and food as well as an evironment that allows them self respect. Being a missional social worker will provide me many opportunities and challenges in the spiritual, physical and emotional well being of youth like these.
Please friends, pray with me, as I should hear in two weeks whether or not Missouri State University accepts me into their program. I believe firmly that God has directed me to this place. It will not be easy, but I am excited to take the tools I will learn at MSU to places on the streets where homeless children and elderly are helpless, voiceless, needy. I put my dreams into God's care, because I know only HE can make the right things fall into place.
Blessings dear brothers and sisters.
Love you.
