Ladies and Gentlemen Start Your Engines!!

  Holly and I are gearing up for our BIG race beginning THIS Wednesday! I am pumped about what will happen over the next few weeks.

   Here are the rules and the stakes.

                                               1st the rules.

   The rules are simple LOSE WEIGHT!! We will be racing to lose our first 10% of what we weigh. This will even the odds a little because...Let's just say Holly does not have lose as much as I do! We will weigh in on Wednesday's and will, when possible report in our weight loss percentage Wednesday afternoon, or Thursday morning. We WILL keep you updated every week. If anyone would like to start with us please let me know and we will all begin "fresh" this Wednesday. Those are the rules.

                                                         The stakes

   So what will the winner get? Well, this blog is a ministry of Miracle Morning Ministries - A ministry of helps, to missionaries. In keeping this as part of our ministry Holly and I have each chosen a missionary to "Race for". I have chosen a missionary to the Ukraine. He is in need of a van that costs $17,000. He works in 15 different villages and walks to them to minister. He holds five small group meetings a week, as well as a pastor of a church that runs 95. His name is Paul Dudka. Holly has not yet told me the missionary she has chosen. These missionaries are missionaries which MMM talk with and are on our ministry list as MMM Missionaries. Once Holly announces her missionary I will let you know. The one who reaches his/her goal first will get to send $100 to the missionary for whom they are racing!

    Here is a run down on the strengths and weaknesses of both Holly and I. As we begin to get ready for the big race there are some strengths and weaknesses I want you to know about. Being a gentleman I will go over Holly's "profile".

                                                      Holly
    Holly's main weakness is that she is a woman. NO I'm NOT trying to be mean, however it is proven that men tend to lose weight a bit more quickly than women. This is Holly's greatest weakness in this race.

    One of Holly's greatest obstacles will be her schedule. While she is a stay at home mother I am convinced that with three children at home, homeschooling one child, potty training another and a three month old, and a husband to be helpmate to, and I won't get into her ministries she is involved with. Holly is by far busier than I am with a much more hectic schedule.

    Holly's greatest strength is that she is VERY DETERMINED! When she sets her mind to something she WILL get it done, and get it done in excellence! She is,unlike me, a person that when she decides to lose weight... she does. This is her greatest strength.
