On the road again
Last Saturday marked the first day on the road for this year. It was a very leisurely 40klm ride as it was also the first day for three other riders. Now to get consistent and build the milesI'm raising funds for the Bible Society and I'd love your support.
I'm fundraising for the Bible Society by challenging myself to ride 600km over five days. The funds I raise will support Bible Society's Bible-based Literacy project in Sri Lanka.
Each year, the Ceylon Bible Society aims to run literacy classes for children through the network of churches and Christian organisations in Sri Lanka, especially in rural, slum and undeveloped areas. These classes increase access to the Scriptures for underprivileged children growing up in areas where they do not have their basic needs met or access to proper education. The classes will be run in the Sinhala and Tamil languages and include reading Scripture through simple Bible stories (both printed and digital), explaining stories from the Bible and Christian books, and covering simple teachings of Jesus, Gospel parables, songs and other audio material.
Will you help us turn on the light of literacy for disadvantaged families today?
Way to go Grandad! Champion effort, a legacy of giving! We love you xx
