Marathon completed in 4hrs 25mins. Please help me reach my target (it's not too late to give)!

18 months ago I took up running as a hobby. This October I would like to run my first marathon and I have chosen what must be one of the must beautiful in the world – the Lucerne Marathon (Switzerland). I invite you to sponsor me and help CEF in Latvia build a new centre (National Office Project)

There are 195,000 children (age 5-14) in Latvia who need to hear the Gospel. We have the unique opportunity to be able to gain access to all local schools and participate in the religious education program. Grades 1-3 are using CEF Memory Verse Sets and over 3,500 pupils are reading "Wonder Devotional Books" – three years of daily Bible readings!

Their 10-year office lease has expired and now they urgently need a centre from which they can coordinate the CEF ministries, which include:

- schools ministry

- Good News Clubs¸

- Children's website - 1,600 children registered

- Mailbox Club - over 1,000 children in public schools invloved. A further 2,300 are mailing letters to the office

- Literature - A 5-year cycle of teaching materials is available in Latvian and Russian

- Teacher training - Regular courses and training seminars are organized
