We just finished watching Anne of Green Gables as a family tonight. As I am sitting here to write this last installment of "Your 138", I am trying my best to refrain from using words like "bosom buddy" and "kindred spirit". Here goes....

It was 65' and sunny here today. What a welcome surprise after a long, cold and extremely wet winter. After of 135 miles of running in the bitter cold, Josh traded in his thermal running gear for a pair of shorts today to finish running the last 3miles. I am looking at the final crumpled piece of paper with the groups, Yazeed, Zaghawa Ambized, and Zaghawa Zghaua scribbled on them. (Yes dear, scribbled.) And I am loving the symbolism of ending this journey on a day that reminds us of the new life spring brings. Because a new life is what we have been praying for, for all 138people groups.

Thanks for not being afraid to pray for big things. Thanks for following this journey. Thanks for your 138.


Your kindred spirit in spreading
His love.
