AlterDominicus Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Alright my phamily. This is where I ask for your lovely help. I need ideas, ways, donations, anything that could be helpful. I'm planning a summer long trip to Finland. My first international trip w00t! And I would love your help and prayers. I already has a list of things I'm selling, my video games, game systems, and I have 1090 baseball cards, and sporting gear to sell. The goal is to get $922.00 dollars before the lovely summer begins on June 1st. PM or post here. Thank you and Godbless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkwright Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I've been to Finland... it was cool. I didn't find much of a Catholic presence at all. Lutheran and Orthodox, but no Catholics... I wasn;t there for long tough. Good luck! Can you work some sort of job for the few months to raise money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to have a bank account though, so any money that gets sent to PayPal can be transferred to your account. I listed a couple of things for sale on eBay and it seems they really prefer PayPal nowadays (they used to let you take checks or money orders, but not anymore!). So I went ahead and got a PayPal account and a moneybookers account (which I have never used either). Just go to their websites and let them talk you through the set up one step at a time. I think more people use PayPal than moneybookers though. I will pray that you get to Finland and have a wonderful trip. Do make it more than just a holiday though - are there convents you can visit there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
