Name: Jonathan R. Faust Hometown: Wesley, Iowa Home Church: Britt Evangelical Free Church (Britt, Iowa) Age: 23 years	Why did you apply to LAUNCH? I just finished a two year college and decided to take a break from the college life. I have been involved with camp for a few summers and decided that LAUNCH sounded like a great program for me. I wanted this opportunity to be a time for me to come closer to God and learn from my camp experience. I am looking forward to the days that lie head. Click here for Jonathan's blog!
Name: Joshua B. Herman Hometown: Iowa City, Iowa Home Church: Parkview Evangelical Free Church (Iowa City, Iowa) Age: 21 years	Why did you apply to LAUNCH? I was taking classes at Kirkwood but I wasn’t enjoying the classes I was taking and I am unsure of the major I want to pursue. So I wanted to try something new and Launch had some really good thing that I enjoy. So I decided to join Launch so I can learn more things so I can get my life back together and find out what I want to do in life. Click here for Joshua's blog!
Name: Matthew M. Ites Hometown: Wellsburg, Iowa Home Church: Iowa Falls Evangelical Free Church (Iowa Fall, Iowa) Age: 23 years	Why did you apply to LAUNCH? I joined Launch because I have been on my own for 4 years and have been working full time and going to school full time. I realized the American dream was taking over my dream to do what God wants for me. I am working to get back into the Word and back on track to becoming a youth pastor or whatever God has for me.

Name: Jolene E. Kalinay Hometown: Toledo, Iowa Home Church: Cornerstone (Ames, Iowa) Age: 21 years	Why did you apply to LAUNCH? My life has been very unstable and in the last year I have come back to the Lord and havening him in my life has started to change me for the better. I wanted to be in the Launch program because I hope to grow in my relationship with Him and be able to bring his word to many different people who may be struggling like I have before coming back to the Lord. Over these next nine months I’m very excited to be completely focused on the Lord and listening to where he wants me to be. I believe that this in a crucial step that will transform me into a servant of the Lord and I am in a place in my life where I am ready to be challenged. Click here for Jolene's blog!
