Like most missionaries, I will be volunteering my time and working without an income for the duration of this trip.This means that I need to raise support for my expenses.
I encourage you to partner with me in this ministry! Your donated funding with cover my food, lodging, travel, health care, and any other need I may have. Your donation will make it possible for me to touch the lives of the beautiful people in Latin America. In donating to this cause, you are becoming a part of something bigger than ourselves– together, we are accepting the call that God has brought on our lives.
$22,000 is a big number! But I know that we serve a big God! And I have every confidence that He will provide my every need! He hasn’t failed me yet!
Yes, I know I said 22 big ones! In order to participate in this ministry, I need to raise $14,243 for travel, healthcare, food and lodging. This money does not include any other expenses, such as travel to and from training and the launch site, gear (pack, tent, sleeping pad, all other equipment), medical vaccinations, and obligations I will leave back home.

My GOAL is to leave FULLY FUNDED in January of 2015.
-
My NEED is to be fully funded 6 months into the race in June of 2015.
If you are considering pledging a monthly gift, please review the following:
11 month pledge: Must begin no later than August 2014, in order to meet my June 2015 deadline. *All donations received after June 2015 will be directed into Adventures in Missions General Fund and will NOT go directly to my Race.
8 month pledge: Beginning in June 2014, your pledge will be complete in January 2015, when I depart.
Every little bit helps me in a big way! So whether you are feeling led to pledge a donation of $20/month or $100/month, pledging for 11 months or 3 months, or simply a one-time donation, I encourage you to prayerfully consider giving!
