I am very close to reaching my goal of $13,800 in cash and pledges that I need to complete the World Race. Many of you have been generous and sacrificial in your giving to make this happen. You are all amazing.
I just read a blog post by my friend and teammate Ian Schumann is who not as fortunate to have such a wonderful community of believers around him. He was accepted to the Race just two weeks before our training camp and comes from a Jewish family. His options for support raising are a bit more limited than they are for most of the Racers. To be able to leave on time with us, just as I do, he needs $6900 in his support account. He’s just under $6000 short right now.
Check out his blog to hear his heart. He’s a pretty amazing dude. I can’t wait to learn from him and with him in this next year (he’s a linguistics major and I love words). He’s going to be a heck of a rock for our team. I could go on, but I’d prefer you just read his blog. I’ve got a link to him on the bottom-left of my blog page with the rest of my teammates.
As always when supporting any ministry, I hope you’ll ask God where He wants you to be giving, then just be obedient. I know Ian is called to be on this team and I know God will provide however he sees fit.
