1,000 Miles for Albania- the details

During the last several months, God has placed something new in my heart.  He has given me a passion and a vision to see lives changed and rescued in the country of Albania.  
 
Last year, I discovered that I really enjoy running. It started as an escape, but became such an extended part of my Spiritual life.  It became a place for me to have time alone with God, for dreams to be birthed, and doors of opportunity began to open.  
 
One of those dreams is what I want to share with you.  Coming out of our first sermon series this year was the idea and pursuit of Audacious Faith. I had been in a boot due to a stress fracture and it was one of those times of trial and deep conversation with God. I feel so strongly out of those moments that He has called me to be audacious in my faith by joining my passion for running with His passion for the lost in Albania.
 
I wish that I had time to explain in detail the journey that God has brought me through to give me this vision and dream and maybe someday we will be able to sit in person to do that, but what I am writing to ask you for is your help
 
I want to run 1,000 miles from March through December of 2011.  I am asking for you to consider sponsoring me monthly throughout this journey.  I will be running 25 miles each week/100 each month to finish the year with 1,000 miles total.  All of the money raised this year will go directly to Pastor Hervin and Sedika Fushekati and allow them to advance the Gospel with the work that they are already doing in Albania.
 
Please click here to let me know if you would like to become one of my sponsors this year and I will email you all of the information.
 
Thank you so much.  I look forward to sharing this journey with you throughout the year.
