Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

None of us like to be told what to do, least of all when it concerns our core values and beliefs. Religious freedom is a human right, and one we enjoy in the West. Not everyone is so fortunate.

I love a challenge, I love Jesus and I love his family, my family.

I'm planning to cycle over 1000 miles and run up the highest peaks in Wales, England and Scotland along the way because it'll be a huge challenge and great fun. But I'm also doing it to raise money for Open Doors because they do incredible work standing up for and with my brothers and sisters around the world who are persecuted for doing something that I enjoy doing everyday: following Jesus.

I'll be doing 10 days of cycling and fell running, from Monday 14th August to Thursday 25th, with Sunday 20th off in the middle. I'll be supported for two thirds of the ride and cycling solo for most, if not all. Plenty of time to hang out with God ;)

I'm sure it'll be fun and rewarding, but it's also going to be hard work! Please support me as I seek to support persecuted Christians around the globe.

Thanks!
