Some people commit a little, some a lot, and a very few beyond your wildest expectations!.

After finding our web site on the internet Craig Mesman from CA. visited us for a week last June. He spent the week working with me and spending time with the kids, Joyce, and myself. He was a great guest, fun to be with, and we fought through a lot of trials; but didn't expect it would be much more than that. Craig went home and shared his experiences with his friends and some immediately began to support us and he continued to stay in touch with us, as often as 4 or 5 times a week. It's unusual to have someone maintain such close contact after they return to the states, but we still didn't realize the depth of his heart for these children.

Today we received an e-mail from Craig telling us of "The Walk"! Committing to walking 500 miles is not something that is done without spending a lot of time in prayer with the Lord. Craig is obviously a 'seeker' of the Lord and he has a heart that responds to what God lays upon it. That kind of sacrifice inspires us to 'stay the course' with these children, to do whatever is necessary to see that they become disciples of Jesus Christ!

Please share the link with all your friends and have them join Craig in his walk each day. Lift him in prayer for safety, health(no blisters), strength, housing, and a clear voice from the Lord. Also, pray that people around the nation will respond to Craig's effort by giving and by coming to help Joyce & I nurture these children. These kids have been plucked from obscurity and almost certain death by God and it's becoming more and more obvious that He intends for them to become difference makers! Craig has given us a tool to share their story...let's all take advantage of his sacrifice!

If you would like to support Craig's effort you may send your check to: #7 The Widow's Mite, P.O. Box 3027, Plant City, FL 33563 and put "The Walk" on the memo line.
