Wilkerson Here:  What a day!  You are amazing!  We have grown the contribution to almost $19,000.  Romans 12:4-8 talks about our function in the body of believers and one of the functions is giving–and doing so generously.  We have seen that in the last 3 days.  However, it’s not over.  9 days to go and they are the most important.  If you have pledged, we need you to enlist others to pledge as well, if not then we need you to log your pledge and then tell others.  This campaign is all through social marketing and the connections we all have to one another.  You must send and appeal to others if we are to go beyond last year.  Certainly we can get to $40,000 in 9 days but it will take your resolve and effort.  Praise be to God for your interest and help.  In His name I ask that he bless all our efforts for Haiti.  AMEN

Training;  Good news, got a steroid shot today in the neuroma.  We will see in 48 hours if it helped.  If not, the doctor who is running the Mini as well will meet me just before the race and deaden the nerve so I can run pain free.  That is a relief to know.  Only a short run on Saturday before the “Flying Pig” 1/2 in Cincinnati this weekend.  Then on to the real race the next weekend.
