17th November – Thank You!
We’d like to thank you all for your generosity in supporting Katie – in total we’ve raised £1.599.20 that’s all going towards the medical centre! We’ll leave you today with a personal note from Katie herself:
I believed God wanted me to walk for him and raise the money for Revive a Life. I stepped out in faith to ask my friends if they would support me, and help the team raise funds for the much needed medical equipment. Hugh, I and the dog walked for eight days (covering 20 miles a day), sleeping in the car at night except for one night in a great bed and breakfast.
We felt greatly inspired by God’s word and the people who helped us, especially when we locked the key in the car.
Please support Revive a Life , even if it is a small amount of cash, it all adds up.
Thank you so much for your support,
Hugh and Katie Bramwell
