A little help?

I'm sitting here writing surrounded by mountains of...well, mountain gear. Three new friends of mine arrived early yesterday morning and just left today in an attempt to summit Denali. Also known as Mt. McKinley, it is the highest point in North America at 20, 320 feet; with a daunting three miles of vertical elevation. Brandon, Jay, and Kristine (and their friend Sean) will be facing many obstacles including extreme weather, dangerous terrain, and high elevation in their month long quest. Even though they've only been here 24 hours they have already become good friends of mine. Those of you of the religious persuasion, please take a moment and pray for good weather and their safe return. Thanks! (and don't worry Mom, I'm not going with them)

If you care to check their progress or send them an encouraging text message, you can do so at the following link:

Just finished reading about Sean and am praying for your new friends. What a beautiful story!

I will most certainly be praying for Brandon, Jay, Kristine and Sean - their safe journey and the weather.
Also, very thankful your not going - you were correct in that was my first thought - oh no! he's going.

love, Mom

Hey, Rob's Mom? That was my first thought, too. Although doubtlessly in a different way, I share your relief. - just a friend
