Greetings from Zimbabwe! 

A brief post update , we are at the Victoria falls township with mum and dad miller who have come all the way from nz, just came back to the hotel from visiting Victoria falls!! So wide and huge, felt like huka falls x 100!!  What a blessing to see!!

Below is a bit of a promotion I (Jono)typed up about a worldwide fundraising event that some visiting people have been advertising at OM base Zambia. 

Hope you are well!

Hey People!

Here at OM Zambia we have been visited by people promoting a worldwide event that YOU can be a part of. It’s called Run For The World (R4TW). It’s slightly like 40 hour famine, except you run/jog as a group for 5km rather than fast for 40 hours, which to me sound easier! The aim is to promote Relationships, 4undraising for projects around the world that use sport to transform lives, Togetherness in uniting the world in participating in 24 times zones in one day, and promoting physical, emotional and spiritual health and Wellness. The hope this year is for the people in 24 time zones, running 5km each, can rack up 40,000km (the circumference of the earth) so that together we are literally running around the world in one day.

Have a look at the website r4tw.org . I plan to participate in the event here in Zambia, but currently they have no event being organised in the NZ time zone, so we need your help to unite the world!!

Nelson Mandela quote: “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, it has the power to unite in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination.”
