So imagine my surprise when Pastor Enjut handed over not 1 but 10 of these Jogerthon cards. Outright, I told her - 1 card will do or I suggest to her that I could just put my contribution in her card. She gave me that sweet 'silent' smile of hers - and my heart just 'melt' and I reluctantly accepted all 10 cards! The truth is that, I was 'afraid' of her!! (She's a very kind & sweet pastor!)
When I reached home and share the 'incident' with my daughter; the smart 12-yr old listened and say the wildest and sensible thing! She says 'Mummy its not about us giving money. We have to find money and run!' ha? 'Crazy girl!' Blessed - child of my heart! Then I challenged her that I will only run, if she can find/collect RM1,000 on her card ... so she cornered the grandma & grandpa immediately and got RM300.00! Her explanation was - mummy needs to keep healthy and we have to get her to exercise. She has identified her donors to this. Beware uncles, aunties & cousins! I am sure ALL of you are conspiring to 'torture' me; but I will do this with love for His Church & Glory! Amen!
ha ha! So then the 'old' mind start working - well, I might as well get RM10,000.00 for the church; and once and for all get friends to contribute to my church ... while helping me get into a better shape! Exercise with Purposes!
So here's a sample of one of my Jogerthon card with all the necessary information & details. Please do email me a copy of your deposit, so that I could record your contribution into my card and also attach it to the card!
If anyone need more details-call me, write me, take me out for breakfast or lunch or dinner AND I will be happy to explain - or contact the church/pastors, who will be happy to help/answer all your queries.
This week, I checked to make sure that the shoes still fit (yeah yeah ... I am at the age when nothing grows hmmm except maybe sideways in the mid section!), the socks are hole-less ... all checked and in order. Now is to train or keep my body muscles familiar with some movement ... so it will be aerobic for the next one and half month plus walking around the track! I can now imagine the music of rocky playing in the background, as I get ready!
Pray for me :D that I will at least accomplish this task, with fun filled heart and at the end, I win with a shapely womanly body. As one cheeky friend says .. less womanly...so that he could get his arms all around! I like to state that this friend just have short arms!!
God Bless you all!
