Well - we actually finished last Friday, but of course I am just now getting the chance to post. We ended up with a total of 5316.5 miles, just about 5 1/2 miles extra. We have officially walked to Romania as a group. It took a lot longer than we had anticipated and many of us were tired of recording it along the way....but we had a goal and that was to complete it! I just want to say thank you to everybody who has followed us on this journey and who has supported us both financially and prayerfully! God has provided and in a little more than a month, we will be on our way to ROMANIA!!
I am in the process of creating a new blog site in which I will chronicle our adventures. Please add yourself as a follower so you can follow us along our way. Keep in mind, I am still working on it and hope to have it up and functional before we leave.
We are a group of mission-minded individuals who have a passion for sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with people here in NC, in the United States, and other countries as well. We are using this Walk-A-Thon to help earn money to go to Romania in August, 2011.

WOW - its been 4 weeks since the last post
What can I say...May has been a very busy month. The last 2 weeks most of us were working at the race track selling pizzas for Papa Johns to get money for our trip. We made a good chunk of what is needed, but we still have a ways to go!
I haven't posted, but I have been getting the miles and keeping track over the last 4 weeks. Some of the weeks' numbers are a little lower than some, but we are still doing pretty well and should be finished within the next 2 or 3 weeks. We have come a long way. It's hard to believe it is June already and in just 2 months and a few days we will be on our way. We (the boys and I) got our passports yesterday so it is becoming more and more real every day!
For the past 4 weeks, we have clocked 674.32 miles and we now have a total of 4689.96 miles completed and 621.04 left to finish the entire 5311 miles. I think we are all ready to stop keeping track...we don't mind doing the work, but tracking has become a pain at times :-) I am going to print my spreadsheet out for the scrapbook I have already started making. We have a great story about a prayer and a faithful God who answers! God has taught me so much all ready on this journey, and I can't wait to see what else he has in store for us in Romania!
Thank you for your continued support - financially and prayerfully! I will continue to post our miles until we reach the 5311 miles that we promised to walk. Once that is done, I will continue to use this blog as a personal journal of our time in Romania.
