Shoes Across America!

Good evening Austin!

First of all, thanks to everyone who contributed to the Shoes4Unity Campaign. Several volunteers showed up Tuesday night to help load the 40+ bags and boxes of shoes that are going to make their ways onto the feet of people all around the world. Every pair that was donated is going to make a person half way around the world smile, and they will be eternally grateful. Again, thank you!

The 12' truck was loaded last night swiftly and efficiently by a wonderful group of volunteers. The shoes are now on their way to the Soles4Souls Collection Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

We just made it into Albuquerque, New Mexico, and are settled in at the home of Mark and Ayesha Livingston, pictured with us above at the Route 66 Diner where we all went to dinner. Mark and Ayesha are the sponsors of the YOU of Unity Spiritual Center here in Albuquerque.

We left Austin at about 6:00 am and trekked through the land of cows and wind turbines, and into the Land of Enchantment. We are safe and well, and greatly appreciate all of your prayers and support.

We would like to give special thanks to Maggie Miller for all of her hard work and dedication to this excellent cause. The energy that she has poured into this campaign has been fantastic; we are very blessed to have her as our International Outreach Team Leader. Thank you Maggie, for everything.

And, thanks to Rev. Steve and the UCOH Staff for all their support!

We will have another update up tomorrow when we arrive in Fabulous Las Vegas!

Blessings,

Ellen Fannin and Dillon Zavala
