Week 22: HOP IN THE WHEELBARROW

Have you heard the story of the tightrope walker Charles Blondin across the Niagara Falls?  He was a phenomenal talent who successfully crossed the width of Niagara in a sack, on stilts, and on a bicycle. On one such venture he stood before a crowd and asked, “Who believes I can put someone in a wheelbarrow and walk them on this tightrope across?”  The crowd roared its approval and shouted, “We believe!”  The tightrope walker then asked, “Who will get in the wheelbarrow?”  The crowd went silent.

Our journey has been much like this. Many believe. Many encourage. But few say, “I’ll get in the wheelbarrow.”  This past weekend we saw people begin to really link arms with us. We are so thankful for those who volunteered, who sponsored, who ran, who gave.  We’ve made new friends too...people who are excited about our mission.  The Lord WILL birth Camp Refuge and each of you play a part.

SPECIAL FOCUS:  Please pray that the Lord would guide you in responding to his call.  If He’s asking you to jump in the wheelbarrow with us, drop us a line to let us know how!
