I pray you have all had a Merry Christmas and are ready for the brand new year ahead of us.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I wanted to take a moment and share with you something I am really looking forward to in 2009. Instead of an oversees mission trip, I have decided to participate in The Breast Cancer 3-Day on October 23-25, 2009 in Atlanta, GA.<\/p>\n<p>The Breast Cancer 3-Day is a 60-mile walk spanning over the course of three days. I must raise a minimum of $2300 in order to participate and am asking that you please consider supporting me <a href=\"https:\/\/secure3.convio.net\/npt\/site\/Donation2?idb=494410297&amp;df_id=1581&amp;FR_ID=1291&amp;PROXY_ID=2890921&amp;PROXY_TYPE=20&amp;1581.donation=form1\" target=\"_blank\">financially<\/a>. Net proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure and National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening, and treatment.<\/p>\n<p>You may <a href=\"https:\/\/secure3.convio.net\/npt\/site\/Donation2?idb=494410297&amp;df_id=1581&amp;FR_ID=1291&amp;PROXY_ID=2890921&amp;PROXY_TYPE=20&amp;1581.donation=form1\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Donate Online<\/strong><\/a> or use my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkhairedgirl.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/trgiftform.pdf\">mailable donation form<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But I must also ask that you please pray for me. Between now and October, I will continue to focus on my health &#8211; to help me be the most ready I can be. Most of you know that I have been doing Weight Watchers over the last 3 months and have lost 20 pounds to date. I will need your prayer support to keep me going and be ready for the endurance this 60-mile event will ask of me.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to ask that you consider <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the3day.org\/site\/TR\/Walk\/AtlantaEvent\/436894038?pg=team&amp;fr_id=1291&amp;team_id=56770\" target=\"_blank\">joining my team<\/a> and walking with me. I have named my team, &#8220;Bloggers for Boobies.&#8221; I know, a little corny&#8230; but how cool would it be to have a team of bloggers walking together against Breast Cancer? AND even if you&#8217;re not a blogger &#8212; please still consider joining me.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.the3day.org\/site\/TR\/Walk\/AtlantaEvent\/436894038?pg=team&amp;fr_id=1291&amp;team_id=56770\" target=\"_blank\">Join Bloggers for Boobies<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support.
