The picture you see is of me and my good friend Joel Houghton. Joel and I serve together as pastors at Emmanuel Bible Church in Simcoe, On. For the past couple years, we’re ran/biked marathons together to raise awareness and gather financial donations to find a cure for Friedrich’s Ataxia (FA) - a rare, debilitating, and life shortening neuromuscular disease. Joel was diagnosed with this disease a couple years ago and together we’ve used our legs and hearts to raise funds which go directly to help researchers find a cure. I’m PUMPED to participate with Joel again in another fundraising campaign to beat FA!
The Plan: This summer I’m going to hit the pavement with my running shoes. From July 1st – 23rd, I’m hoping to run 100 total kilometers. Each km will be meaningful to help find a cure for FA.
Your Part: I'm asking you to pledge 25 cents, 50 cents, 75 cents, or $1 per km that I run. I'll post my total km run to social media on July 23rd. You can then do the math and make your donation on July 24th and 25th.
****IF I exceed 100 km, don’t feel pressure to donate more than what you pledged up to 100km. If I don’t get close to 100km, blame it on my ankles, not me hehe.
Thanks in advance for reaching out to help Joel.

You've got this -- just as you have done so before. "And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith." Cheering you on!!
