As I have gone around the world this year, serving people and living in community,
I have experienced the POWER of God’s LOVE and GRACE.
If you have been keeping up with my blog, then hopefully you have experienced it too!
I am so thankful for you, the friends and supporters that help make this whole adventure possible!
My teammate Mark has an awesome buddy from home, a former college roommate,
who has walked alongside him the entire year, so he knows all about the thrills and the struggles.
And he wants it!
In fact, he is planning to go on the World Race with his wife as part of the August 2009 J-squad!

Their names are Chad and Leslie Jowers, and they are crazy!
Crazy for Jesus!
I have not met this couple in person, but I do know and love them!
Besides the encouraging comments they have sent me,
I have heard all about them from Mark, who usually laughs out loud as he reads their emails
or asks us what we think about some challenge Chad has posed.
Chad and Leslie are quirky and fun.
They are faithful.
And they are eager to experience more intimacy with their Savior
and to bring God’s Kingdom to people around the world.
They quit their jobs. They are selling their home. And they are ready for action!
They have agreed to be part of the generation that seeks God’s face.
They are committed to serving God in various countries around the world.
The August 2009 J-squad is going to Europe, the Middle East, East Africa, and Southeast Asia.

Chad and Leslie are on Team Unwritten (as in the song by Natasha Beddingfield).
They are handing over the pencil to God and inviting Him to write His story in their lives.
Okay, so why am I introducing you to Chad and Leslie?!
Because they need OUR support!
The August 2009 J-squad is scheduled to depart on the World Race very soon.
In the next TWO WEEKS, Chad and Leslie need to raise $10,000.
The total amount seems overwhelming,
but I know from experience that every little bit of help makes a BIG impact.

Plus, we are confident that “nothing is impossible with God,” (Luke 1:37),
and there are no crises in His world.
He will provide and orchestrate situations to bring Himself glory.

$4 will feed both of them for one day.
$10 will give them both a place to stay for one night.
$20 will allow them both to spend another day on the field.
The World Race is 11 months long. That’s 334 days.
You do the math. Your money goes a long way.
Could you help send Chad and Leslie out onto the field and keep them there?

By skipping a coffee, a movie, or a dinner out,
you could make it possible for lives to be changed!
