Fundraising over!

Update posted by Philip Burns

Barefoot update:

6 days til Cambodia. BAREFOOTING OFFICIALLY OVER!!! With just under a week to go, June brings the option (yes, the mere option) of choosing shoes over bare soles. But I have fallen in love with barefooting so the hobbit lifestyle may just stick for good.

A massive thank you to everyone who has donated, people have been incredibly generous (and curious!) about the Barefoot for Cambodia cause. Here's a rundown of donations:

- £440 raised over the internet
- £265.10 raised face-to-face
- £550 previously donated for flights (pre-barefooting)
- £1,000 donated last Friday by single donor thoroughly curious about my bare feet!
- £5,000 donated by single donor directly to Feed My Lambs charity in Cambodia after the bare feet sparked interest.

Grand total raised = £7,255.10. Not bad for just taking your shoes off...

'Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."... (Jesus answered...) Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these... And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.' 
- John 14:8-14

Thank you, God.
