Pressing Forward Visionathon - Robbo's 64-hour Marathon!
"Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us."- Hebrews 12:1
G'day, Robbo here...
In case you missed it, I was recently asked to take on an endurance challenge to demonstrate the fact that we're in this for the long-haul. That challenge was to live out the marathon during Visionathon by staying in the studio for the entire 64 hours! ...and I accepted, which meant I was to attempting to be on-air for all 64 hours of Visionathon!
Well I made it through and wow!... What a response! I am stunned that so many people were behind me, urging me on from the sidelines. In the end, over 150 people sponsored me for a total of $53,275 ...or $832.42 per hour. Amazing! (note: this has been revised from the figure that was previously published - click here for more details).
It was a joy and an honour to talk to so many listeners and hear the many amazing stories about how God is using our combined efforts in incredible ways.
The 64 hour challenge may be over but the endurance race of 'Christian radio for every Australian’ contnues!
All funds raised have been included in the overall total in our ‘Pressing Forward’ Visionathon, which will help us to continue connecting faith to life for thousands of Aussies every day.
The challenge may be over but it's not too late to help. Just call us on 1800 00 777 0 or use our secure online facility (click on the link below).
...and if you sponsored me, THANK YOU (I'm having a well-earned rest now)!!
