I'm participating in the ALS SuperHero Dash to raise funds and awareness to help fight back against this disease. The ALS Association provides much needed patient services resources, funds globally, cutting edge research, and much more in order to help those living with ALS right in our community.
The SuperHero Dash is a great opportunity for us to work together to support those affected by ALS and to spread awareness of the importance of our cause, and to help fund research for treatments and a cure.
God put this on my heart a couple years ago. I am blessed to be the oldest grandchild of the Martin/Krider family in that I have great memories of my Grandpa Tim. I remember his smiling face, his great sense of humor, his ability to fix or build almost anything, and how much he loved his family. Just to name a few. Losing my Grandpa at 60 years young was hard for my family and myself. When I was younger sometimes I would wonder what life would have been like for me growing up if my Grandpa hadn't left this earth. I would think, would my teenage years have been less painful? Would I have turned out be better person in some aspects of my life if my Grandpa Tim hadn't left this earth back in 2003? Within the last year or so God gave me the revelation that thinking things like that when I was younger is a lie in my own mind. Part of the destination of myself getting to where I am today in my journey to growing up, and becoming a man is remembering and honoring who my Grandpa Tim was. Who he was/still is as a Father/Grandfather. Those memories I am blessed to have of my Grandpa have helped shape me into the adult I am today. I feel like I can't even really put it into words how thankful I am about that.
Challenging ALS is truly important to me. I'm asking for your help. Please make a donation, join my team, or sign up to be a volunteer today. Thank you in advance for anything that you can contribute. Let's team together to help battle this disease, and then defeat it Jesus' mighty Name! Amen.
God Bless!
