Encouragement from work

I finally got around to sending out an email to my Sparkfun letting them know about my trip.  It was similar to the regular support letter but specific to Sparkfun.  Lets just say I was pleasantly surprised by the encouraging responses I got from people all over the company.  Here's a few quotes from emails and letters I've gotten.


There's definitely a fair share of hatred and ridicule aimed at Christianity going on...


It is really hard to share the fact you are Christian, it is especially hard when you know the people around you my not share your faith


I found this this morning in my daily devotional...  Gracious God, I want to be the person you have called me to be for today. Please help my love for you overcome doubt, discouragement, and fear. I love you more than these. Amen.


The light of God is also able to shine the brightest in the darkest of places, somehow. 


I'm glad to hear about missions efforts in Europe.


Congrats. I wish you the best raising the funds you need.


I was pretty sure I was a lone faith man in a post faith world


Your mission is very inspiring...


Thanks for sharing!


P.S. Thank you to those who've encouraged me and I purposely did not attach nor will I attach names to these quotes.

Still raising money...

Well, still needing lots of funding, right now I've got almost $700 but that still leaves $1600+ to go, praying and trusting God.  For all those who haven't gotten letters (sorry I probably just don't have your address) or prayer cards here are links to both.
