College & Career
| ||
Goal: I want to work in service and ministry to people as a full-time job after college. I want to use music and missions in my career, likely meaning that I will write and sing songs, perhaps in a worship setting, and minister to others, perhaps in the Dominican Republic or another Spanish-speaking country. | ||

By end of high school

· Will be working toward fundraising and planning another mission’s trip through which I can apply my Spanish knowledge and connect with the people directly. Once I decide where I am going and how much it will cost, I will need to have all the money fundraised by the time the organization needs the payment. The sooner I sign up, the better the chances of there being room available. Otherwise I will save the fundraised money for another mission in the next year. | ·
Students International (stint.com), other mission websites, money I have saved, parents, possibly other people.
· New Life Church, a free schedule, planningcenteronline.com, the music and mp3s, piano · Piano, manuscript paper, inspiration, GarageBand, possibly music notation software. · Local organizations and associations. |

Financial Well-Being

Goal:
In all my earnings I want to donate 10% of my money and save 10%. I do not want to ever accrue a debt that I cannot pay off by the end of the month, except in the case of taking a loan for a house or the like in which I will stay on top of payments for.
