Hey Everyone!

I hope this email finds you all doing well. I am back in Ohio working at Starbucks again and looking for a second job for the next few months. I know that in the last update I sent out, I informed you all that I had been accepted to the World Race! I'm currently in the "mobilization" part of this process. Meeting the people that are on the squad I will be part of, getting all the needed documents ready and in order and figuring what gear (backpack, sleeping bag, tent, clothes, etc.) I will need to take with me as I begin this next season of life. This World Race is the next place that God has lead me to be His hands and feet. This is my role that I play in the body of Christ. This role and work I'll be doing however, does not make me rich as far as physical money goes. We are all called to change the world around us for Jesus, some of us are in the thick of it on the ground, while other are in the thick of it by supporting the financial needs of brothers and sisters.

If any of you sense God leading you to support me financially, please do. In doing so you become a part of what God is doing world wide through His body the church on a full scale level. Supporters are not just supporters, you are partners that are bringing change to the world, by helping sending out the body of Christ to places that they couln't go to otherwise. I hope you don't feel guilted in any way as you read this to give, that is NOT what I'm trying to do. Pray and ask God if He would have you support me, if He says yes, then awesome! I know that God will supply the money needed for the trip, through ways and people I haven't even though of.

If God is leading you to support me, you can easily give online here on my World Race blog. On the left hand side of the page you'll see the ‘Support Me!’ link. Click on that,enter my full name and follow the rest of the process. If you would like to give some other way other then online, you can email me at [email protected] to contact me directly. If you aren't able to partner with me financially, then partner with me by praying for me and my team often. We're going into some very dark places, and satan will not be easy going.

Live a full life with the blessings God has given and will continue to give you!
Love you all!
Mike
p.s. if any of ya'll have prayer requests that would want to share with me, and have me pray for, you can send them to me at the email address I put up above ^^^^ and I'll be praying for them.
