I've been off Facebook, Twitter and blogging for Lent, so this appeal is late, but here goes:
Andy and I will be participating in Pioneers’ annual Walk for the World on April 10. We will each be walking five miles, along with others who serve Pioneers here in Orlando, and we’re looking for supporters.
What’s the money go to? Your investment will go to a fund that supports the ministry of our Orlando offices—that includes recruiting new people to serve among the unreached, training and caring for our 1,900-plus members serving in 90 countries around the world and raising awareness in the church of the needs of unreached people groups. For example, one piece in this puzzle is the Communications Team, which I serve. You can check out Pioneers’ newly-designed Website. If you supported us in last year’s Walk for the World, your generous investment was part of what made this site a reality.
This year Andy and I will again match any of your gifts that come in, and Pioneers has received a matching grant from a foundation. So, your gift this year will again be quadrupled. A gift of $25 will equal $100. But I want to sweeten the pot even more: For anyone who gives, I will send a copy of Don’t Waste Your Life, by John Piper. If you haven’t read it yet, it will rock your world. If you already have a copy, I’ll send you another copy, so you can give yours away. If you can’t support us and want a copy of the book, let me know. I’ll send you one. If you’d like to support us, visit http://www.pioneers.org/walk and type in “Matt Green” and the amount you’d like to give. Just arrange the laps to get the amount you want to give. (e.g. $1/lap x 25 laps = $25)
Can’t give now? We understand. Join us is praying that God continues to bless this growing ministry—and ultimately, that His name is glorified among those who have not yet heard.

[...] If you missed it, I’m walking around in a circle today to raise money for Pioneers. It’s called Walk for the World (WFTW) and you can still donate if you’d like to by going to pioneers.org/walk and putting my name (or Matt Green because he’s got a good offer going on!) [...]
