I realized today that around this time last year I had just been accepted to the Race.

This is when I began the journey of preparing for a trip that would change my life and my walk with the Lord.

A year ago, I was discussing with my parents the financial side of this trip.

We were all wondering – with a strange combination of both scepticism and confidence – how $15,500 was just going to magically appear in my fundraising account.

As much as I knew with every fibre of my being that God would provide everything I need for this, I still held on to a tiny ounce of fear somewhere in the pit of my stomach – a fear that I wouldn’t quite make it.

And here I am, a year later, with my final financial deadline looming before me in a matter of weeks… and only $2000 to go before I reach that deadline.

Crazy, right!

I’m almost there, and so many of you helped me get this far.

Here I am, sitting in Albania in month 6 of my Race; I never actually knew that I would ever make it this far!

I mean, I knew… but I’m ashamed to say I still held on to some doubts.

So with $2000 to go, I’m asking, for probably one of the last times, if you’ll prayerfully consider supporting me for the second half of my trip.

Please take some time to think it over, and if you decide to come alongside me on my journey to 11 countries in 11 months, click on the “Support Me” tab on the side of this page.

Any small amount will make a huge difference and I would appreciate it more than you’ll ever know.

If you don’t feel led to support me financially, I would still be incredibly thankful if you kept me in your prayers.

5 months of travelling and experiencing Christ in ways I never thought I could experience him has changed me and grown me, but I know that 6 more months of this Race will change me even more.

Your prayers will always be so appreciated and needed.

Thank you for following along with my crazy journey and I hope that you will continue to do so!
