Happy New Year! And welcome to 2011! I know, I’m late.

I’d like to just take a moment and do a quick update on how everything is going so far.

Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Fundraising: Technically, I have $14,654.50 left to raise! Since being accepted to the Race I have so far sent out over 200 support letters. I have a few verbal commitments from those letters that amount to $2150. That leaves me with needing $12504.50. I am working on ordering and selling threads of hope bracelets and some t-shirts from www.fundthenations.com. In the coming weeks I will also be seeking out support from local churches.

Goal for January: My goal for January is to find 11 people to donate $11 a month in 2011. If 11 people partner with me in this goal that would give me $1,452; that’s almost 10% of my overall support! If you’d like to partner with me in this please click the “Support Me” button on the left side.
