| 20th August 2009 - Prayers from Chimborazo |
|
Dear Friends, Great Souls YOUR PRAYERS TAKEN TO THE POINT NEAREST TO THE SUN During the first week in September I'll be climbing Chimborazo, Ecuador. At 6,300 metres the mountain is, due to the equatorial bulge, the point on earth nearest to the sun. The exact climb date will depend on the weather. Will I make it? I don't know, but I feel strongly drawn to this adventure and I'm working hard on my fitness. The climb involves high altitude mountaineering, over snow and ice, and around crevasses, so it's a little challenging. Imagine the power of prayer on this special mountain. And you can have your own prayer carried to the summit of Chimborazo. And even if I don't reach the summit your prayer will be read on the mountain at the refuge hut at 5,000 metres. To register your prayer all you have to do is sponsor me on this climb. Funds go to the Ananda Rainbow Himalayan Village Schools project (www.anandarainbow.org). And it's really easy. Simply click on the PayPal donation/sponsorship button on this page. Make your payment. Then email me with your prayer through the Contact Us page. I look forward to hearing from you. Many blessings to you all. Stan
