"My name is Regina Boykin, we met while you were riding through MS. You were a guest rider during the week of the Dixie National Trail Ride. I must tell you that it was not only a tremendous pleasure, but also a blessing from God to have med you. I will continue to pray for you always and I know, that through faith, you will raise more than enough money for the children of Paraguay. May God continue to bless you. I also pray that while you are traveling, God would use you in a way which would spread His gospel anyone whose path you cross.
Again, God bless you always, Love in Christ"
