Skinny for Speed The Light

I am thrilled that you have decided to read this post! I want to share with you something that God has laid on my heart. The youth group that God has entrusted me with is called Example Student Ministries. We base that name off of 1 Timothy 4:12 where Paul tells Timothy, "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." (NIV)

Sometimes these example bearers need someone to set the example for them!

One way that I have decided to set the example is by our Speed The Light giving. If you are unfamiliar with Speed the Light, it is a missions giving program where the money from Assemblies of God students buys vehicles and communication equipment for missionaries. I know, cool right?!

What God has laid on my heart is the sacrifices that our missionaries go through to spread the Gospel. Some do not have cars or the equipment they need to effectively fulfill their calling. The Gospel is only "good news" if it gets there in time! That is where I come in...

Skinny for Speed The Light was developed as a way for me to raise money for Speed the Light. Starting this Sunday, February 20th, and ending the last day of November, I will be exercising and dieting. People will be pledging per pound that I lose. (Example: $5 per pound; 50 pounds lost = $250 for Speed the Light).

I need your help! If you would like to donate or pledge for the Skinny for Speed the Light project, that would be greatly appreciated! I am shooting for loosing 100 pounds!

Please spread the word about this project! I would greatly appreciate your prayers as well! You can contact me at ajohnson13174@hotmail.com if you would like to participate!
