In this video, David Argabright recaptures the wonderful 108 mile journey of riding a bicycle in central Louisiana. This ride was made possible by the prayers of prayer partners around the world. God did it. Especially, he gives thanks to the beautiful children of Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka for praying for his safety and protection. The entire 820 mile ride from Nashville, TN to Houston, TX is to raise awareness of the needs of children in South Asia. He challenges viewers to “dig deep” and make a difference in the life of a child. For only 8 you can support a child for 1 year in a Child Development Center. See www.compassion575.com for online giving and more information. This is an approved fundraiser for NCM-South Asia.
