I will be doing an engineering
internship with TWR International (formerly Trans World Radio) in Bonaire,
which is an island right off the coast of Venezuela in the Caribbean. It is the little island right next to Curacao above Venezuela.
I am studying Mechanical Engineering at California State
University Sacramento but have felt called by God to serve Him in His global
ministry to reach lost people for Christ.
To that end, I have applied and been accepted to TWR’s internship
program to work with their radio tower maintaining department. I will be
helping them test the metal on the towers for corrosion and test the density of
the metal to make sure that the towers are still stable by climbing the 400ft
towers.
Since TWR is a faith-based mission, I am required to find both prayer partners and financial partners to support this ministry. For this 2 month internship, TWR has asked me find twenty regular prayer partners and to raise a total of $5,064 by May 2015. This financial support will cover my work and travel expenses, rent and utilities, orientation, debriefing and administrative fees and provide me with a modest salary to pay for my living expenses and meals.
