Mustard Seeds - Matthew 17:20
God can use a small amount of faith to do big things.  We don't have to be a certain age or have special talents.  If we have the faith of a mustard seed and place that faith in God, He can use us to do great things.

 


Big Ol' Jerry Update

By the time you read this, Daniel will be in Winnipeg and having experienced much generosity and help from people along the way.  It restores our faith in good people who are interested in Kenneth’s story through Daniel’s words and biking venture. He has encountered snow, blocked trails, wild life, but with the help of his crew and again the people along the way, his journey seems to be worth while and gives him perseverance to keep going.


Miles from Collingwood to Winnipeg:  1175.7
Miles from Collingwood to destination, Rossland BC:  2,425.7
Miles to go:  1250
