Pray

This trip will be physically and emotionally demanding, but all the while we'll be growing in Christ as individuals and as a team.  Here are some specific ways you can pray for me and my team:

• Some of the most difficult moments of this entire journey will be the fundraising process leading up to the trip.  Pray that the team will raise the funds required, and that each of us trusts in God through the whole process, knowing that He will provide if He wants us to participate in the trip!
• For peace and to be stress free leading up to the trip.
• Safety reaching our starting point (Seattle) and that our luggage (including our bikes!) would arrive on time.
• That we would convey our reason for riding in a clear manner, and that we would be a light to those we meet along the way.
• That strong friendships would form between teammates (this trip, specifically when riding, will go a lot smoother when there is trust between teammates).
• Safety while biking.
• Safety returning home from our final destination (NYC).
• That through this whole experience God would teach each of us what He wants us to be taught, and that we would Grow in Him as a team and as individuals.

Your prayers are the most important thing you can contribute to this trip.  I (and my team) really appreciate your taking the time to pray for us!
