On May 27th I am planning to join Team World Vision at the International Peace Marathon in Kigali, Rwanda. The next Sunday I will running the 56 mile Comrades Marathon in South Africa.
In between the races our team will be visiting area development projects within Rwanda, meeting sponsored children and observing the work World Vision has accomplished in these communities.
I have been blessed with the opportunity to once again visit Africa and see the work World Vision is doing in developing nations. It is a great privilege and not one that I take lightly. That I am able to take my love for running and my passion to see the end of "stupid poverty" and combine the two is very special.
My goal for this trip is to continue to find people to sponsor kids in both Rwanda and South Africa. Over the last year I have found sponsors for 52 kids but would love to blow past the 100 mark before the end of May. There will be more information on how you can help with this coming soon. In the meantime I ask that you would begin to pray for our team and the kids whose lives will be forever changed because of sponsorship.
