Sometimes it is hard to capture in words what exactly it is I do on a daily basis.  Most of my ministry is about building relationships with the squad and people we meet, and leading them to God every chance I get.
In Honduras there was a former World Racer named Ashley who was also working with our contact. I got this letter from her as we left.  It really blessed me, and I wanted to share it with you because I think it really captures the heart of what it is I’m doing in the world… 

“Mike and Stacey,

You are inspirational.

Not only is B squad blessed by you but so are many others
that you meet along the way, like me! 
Both of you have HUGE hearts that overflow with Jesus’ love and
goodness.  I know it’s hard to love more
and more people knowing that you might not see them again, but you do it
well.  You love people like they’re the
only one you love.  You give them your
whole heart.  Continue to be strong and
fight for what’s right, fight for Jesus. 
You are doing an incredible job with B squad.  I can see how much they adore and respect
both of you.

Thank you so much for constantly including my sisters and
I.  We have been so blessed to know all
of you.  Thank you for your
friendship.  You will all be in my thoughts
and prayers.

Ashley”

All I want for Christmas is to pay the bills!  Cool

I have two more months on the mission field before I fly back to the states, and I need your help to make it through!
This Christmas, you can support my ministry in one of the following ways:
1)  Pray that God brings swift financial provision that allows me to continue to be a blessing in the nations.
2)  If you’d like to bless me with a gift this Christmas, the best way to do that would be with a financial gift to help me catch up on payments.  ([email protected])
3)  Consider buying a World Race t-shirt.  $25 or more gets you a shirt, and helps me to stay afloat!  (email me at [email protected] to find out how to purchase one)
Thanks so much for your continual support!  I’m blessed to be doing what I do!
