hurt

ok - there's a few rumors that I was hurt while riding motorcycles in the Andes... simple answer - yes.
and, put the first few scratches on Jimmy's new KTM...

BUT, they took me, on a road bike, into some tight off-road 'shortcuts' on gravel, dirt - between buildings, cars and such - so, a couple times the smooth back tire made for high speed road just came out from under me - need to ride street more - get used to it...

AND, as the pictures prove - though it's hard to see where Jimmy's bike got scratched, it's easy to see my forearm bruise, the deep exhaust burn on my leg, and sprained ankle... FINISHED THE RIDE! hey, you just gotta man-up play hurt sometimes!

(really did feel bad about laying Jimmy's new bike down - maybe send him a starbucks card or something :)

full speed!

Ecuador and KTM1000!

Ok friends – back to work on the updates… Today we’re in Ecuador, so I'll do that report now - then, tonight I’ll do reports from recent events and strategy meetings in Michigan, Tennessee, Oregon, Oklahoma, Texas…

Ecuador is cranking! – they have coordinated men’s centers in 20 of the 24 states in the nation! It is tremendous – and from here they are reaching Colombia, Spain, El Salvador and other key nations!

KTM1000 !! Yesterday – Pastor Jimmy Cornejo, with Ed Preston and Jimmy’s friend Fernando rode the winding mountain roads of the upper Ecuadorean Andes – it was awesome! I rode a KTM1000 – it was crazy, fast, bloodrushing, fun and scary – what a blast running through the mountain villages of Ecuador with great friends – and, then creating huge new momentum for the men’s movement across the north of South America!

READ THIS! DRAMATIC STORY OF GRACE! CMN board member, Ps. Eddy Leo and his wife Rose are also here in Cuenca, today he told the story of the village Duma, in Indonesia – only 3 years ago – Jihadist attacked church - 211 Christians killed including children – over 400 injured – wives/children captured and made into slaves… they started rebuilding the church two years ago – God told them to give the first offering – take it to the Muslims village that attacked them and give as a gift of love.
They marched singing praise songs – gave the money to the Muslim leaders - $5000! The Muslims were overcome with emotion, that God loved them, and God’s people loved them – then, the Muslims came to Duma, the Christian village – and rebuilt the Christian church!

These are the heroes in your family! The book of Acts continues!

Go fast!
