2nd Week

4 kgs off in total - $171 per kilo pledged!! I am so grateful to Elliot and Margaret for their prayer. Feeling well.

End of the First Week

Well, if I was overwhelmed last week I am astounded this week. $163 per kilo pledged! The pressure is on.

I have done OK this past week. 2.3 kgs off and feeling well. Everyone terribly supportive at church. I thank God for his provision - my strength is in Him alone.

Overwhelmed!

I have been overwhelmed by the support I have received from my church family. They have been wonderful. So far I have been pledged $77 per kilo (which if I lose 30 kgs is $2,310). All I have to do now is lose the weight!! I still have a few more people to contact so expect it to rise. I was really touched by Elliot, a young guy from SBC, who came up and said he would put me on his prayer wall. These things are really precious. My lovely sister in Christ, Carmela, was a real brick, taking round the list to get people to sign up.

I don't want to let any of these people down - or God - or the kids at Watoto. Lord, please give me the strength to do this.
