Hey peeps!
I wanted to help my teammates who hadn't met the December deadline. On the week of Thanksgiving, I decided to have a fundraiser, and it was a HAIKU CONTEST!
I did not take the time to fully advertise this action, but I did get one entry. And this entry was accompanied by a very generous donation 🙂 She won the $25 giftcard to Lifeway and a World Race t-shirt, but the prize she really won is in heaven, for helping to further the Kingdom of Christ!
Without further ado, here is the winning haiku, written by MY MOM! 🙂
"World Race for Christ"
Eleven countries
World Race, one way, truth, and life:
Our Lord Jesus Christ!

Congrats, Mamae 🙂
Thank you for being so kind and helping to send Team Tharros!!
I love this! And your mom is so beautiful! I see where you get it from. 🙂
this is precious! i wish i had known about it, i do love a good haiku… almost as much as i love a good pun :]
May the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit bless my daughter Helena and all the World Race teams on their mission!
All of us, families and friends, will be right here loving you and praying for your safety, as Christ will touch lives through you on this journey…
In Jesus’ wonderful name and love,
Leticia Skelton
