1st Marathon Approaching...

Greetings, y'All:

I apologize for my silence yea these last fifty plus days. For the month of July, please follow the link to Sheryl's blog on the left for updates. During August I've been entrenched in the Marine Corps Planning Process, including working the night shift recently in a 24-hr-a-day 14 day exercise.

I feel very cared for and supported by my family and friends, so please think of this as an opportunity, not a request or a plea. I am training for the Chicago Marathon on October 7th, through which I pray that the lives of rural Malawians will be changed for God's glory. Thanks to some who have already given to this cause--if you were thinking of my birthday on the 17th and don't know what to get me, please consider sponsoring me in the marathon attempt. My pastor, who will also be running in the marathon with other members of our church for the same reason, has written a very glowing endorsement (so glowing, in fact, that I'm humbled by it: really, I did not pay him to say these things), which you can see here: http://bolsinger.blogs.com/.

Thanks, all of you, for all the things you already are involved in regarding your immediate circle, your community, and your world.

Semper Fi, JarHedJon
