WOW! What a great video today! I am still keeping track and am enjoying watching the progress. A 10:00am start must’ve been mentally tough on you, but you made it to Indy! Prayed for you last night as I tucked my girls into bed. Have a great ride!

Hi Mark and crew,

It’s too bad you had rain yesterday, but it didn’t look like it was an all day thing. I hope today is better and maybe a litttle cooler than last week here in Illinois.

It looks like the bicycle track was awesome! It’s too bad they wouldn’t let you ride at the Speedway.

You continue to make progress toward your goal and we thank God for the opportunity and strength that blesses you.

May God continue to bless you, Kate, all the crew and everyone close to you!

Blessings and Hugs,
Chrissy A.

Hey Mark,
I’m hoping that maybe the rain kept it cool for you. I know it rained in Western PA and it was a little chilly here. I’m glad to see that you are doing so well with your ride. I am still training for if I get to ride with you in Erie. I can’t wait til you get here. I am very excited. Only 8 days left!! Good luck until then.

In Christian Love,
Dayna

Hey, the bike track looked really fun! At first I thought you were at Speedway but, of course, realized later on you weren’t. How did Kate make it happen???? Hm-m.

Love keeping track of you all on the blog. Thanks for keeping it up!

Blessings.

Hey Mark,

Glad to see you had a great ride through our neck of the woods, New Ross, Jamestown.

I bet that Maj. Taylor Veladrome was fun.

I know you’re having great weather today. Good Luck and God Bless you on the rest of the trip! John.

Hey Mark and crew,
It doesn’t look like riding in the rain yesterday was too bad; you don’t know how much we needed that rain here in central Indiana! Today’s temperatures and low humidity should make for a great day, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy the level terrain as you make your way to Richmond tonight. (It beats the Flint Hills of Kansas any day!)
We enjoy the blog entries and keeping track of your journey. God bless,
David and Jenny Wade

I appreciate the humble hearts of you and the crew. It is great to see the energy, joy, laughter, work and sacrifice each new day. You all are over-comers and wild men!!

“The Lord is faithful to all His promises and loving toward all He has made. He upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down”. Ps 145:13.14

Thanks for your pure hearts and bowed spirits of service!

Love,

Dear Mr. Schultz,
The rain looks so awesome!!! It’s been really dry and hot in Phoenix, so rain sounds really neat:) I can’t believe you are already that far, God has definitely given you amazing strength to continue.

“Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD is the one who goes before you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:8

May the Lord bless you today in a special way!!!
In His Arms, Leanne

Hey guys!!
I was wondering if you were running into rain, we’ve had alot here and so we’ve been praying that God is protecting you all from it.
Glad that you are all filled with joy!!! :-)
Here are some verses that made me think of you…
-The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing-
(Zeph 3:17)
-Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with Gods people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
( Romans 12:12)

We are praying for you all and hope to maybe see you in NY the kids are really looking forward to catching up with you. Fun to take the road trip and worth it to show our support!
Your in our thoughts and prayers daily. You’re doing an amazing job!!!
In Christ,
The Ross Family

Great video today! I dont know why Clay did not toss yo a bar of soap to take a quick shower. Did Clay find his glasses, I know you said the other day that he was driving without them for a few days… did he read the directions without his glasses? Oh-well, Clay you created a great memory that may be used against you one day. :-) Todays quote: “People like to think that bad things only happen to faceless strangers in newspapers, until it happens to them. That’s why faith must be strong now, before we need it.” Prayers are with you all of you. Great to see you had someone with you to day.

Of course, you all came into Indiana the ONE day that it has rained in June!!! We went through Indy Tuesday, but earlier than you. I was hoping to maybe see ya. I guess I’ll have to wait until July — in Austin, TX.
Hope you enjoyed seeing the corn and bean fields here, oh yeah, and then there were MORE corn and bean fields!!

You keep pumpin’ and we’ll keep prayin’

Hey Mark and Crew!

It’s so good to see you guys laughing and having so much fun! You guys are amazing! Riding all those miles in the rain, the trucks passing you and soaking you even more each time, and you still have such a joyful spirit! Your love and dedication to the Lord and to others is such an example of Jesus to everyone around you! You two are hilarious at the end of the video with your coments about them being worried about you “burning” up the track! And joking about it being “midnight” after you’d left at 10:00am! : O Keep on relying on His strength and He will see you through to the end!

I know that we don’t have to worry about you getting enough “water” today! But, don’t forget to get enough to eat so you can keep up your energy for the journey! Take care and God bless!
Terry

P.S. Don’t forget, there is always Mickey D’s!

~There is a link to a really neat McDonald’s commercial from the 80′s! I’ve tried to post with the link in the message several times and it woudn’t take my post. : ) You can go to the you tube main website and type in “Mac Moon” or “Mac Tonight” and there are several different versions. They’re awesome!
