Race Charity Crew

ALRC is a small, yet very vital need and rescue to a great epidemic in the world, unwanted and unloved people. If you save one life you have saved their world. We are raising financial needs, making awareness, and taking action in bringing hope and love to others that have no hope and no love. I'm a part of ALRC because it is a very important part of the big picture in what God wants us all to be apart of. It is going to make a difference in someone's life. In September I leave for Chiangmai, Thailand for two years at a baby home, The Gentle Nest. I will be there to love, care, and to show the hope found in Jesus to these babies and mothers. My role with ALRC is to be a prayer warrior for this ministry. I will be at the track as support and to pray for safety of all the drivers. I will also be there to let people know about ALRC and why we race.

Isaiah 1:17: Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of orphans. Fight for the rights of widows. To read more of Liz's BLOG: www.myjourneytothailand.blogspot.com/

ALRC �loves his brother� by loving the children who have less than us. Let no child go to bed hungry, feeling unloved, cold, without medical
attention, without a home or without the word of our Lord. This is part of our mission. God led me to one of the biggest venues in the world to
do this � automobile racing. It is the largest and fastest growing spectator sport in world. Through this great, team sport ALRC will grow with
God�s blessing and teach his word.

Role with Abundant Life Race Charity: Ministry Leader and Driver of Stock Car #28

Favorite Bible verse: 1 John 4:16, 21 �God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him. This is the commandment we
have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.�Isaiah 1:17

"I look forward to working with ALRC as everyday we run our own race...whether it be in our
jobs, our ministries, our families and friends or involved with Abundant Life Race Car. When
we finish our race it won�t matter how fast we went, how many people clapped and cheered
for us along the way, what matters is who we stopped to help along the way and, more
importantly, who we bring over the finish line with us....Press on to the finish line! "Phillipians 3:14 �I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus�

As a Detailer in the Auto Industry and Manufacturing Engineering for the past 30 years, I have worked for other businesses before opening my own in the Braintree, Massachusetts area. I have been a business owner for about 20 years now and am self taught while working hard to get what I have today.

I have a daughter that is in college and completing her B.A. in Business from a college in North Carolina. My youngest son is still a junior in High School.Years ago, while owning and running my business, I worked hard and sent myself thru college to complete first my Associates Degree in Business and then my B.A. in Business. I am self-
motivated within my business and have worked hard to get where I am today.
I recently met Greg Nanigian at Church of Abundant Life and he helped me out as a Christian brother. I am here to help out with the race charity any way I can. It�s all about giving back to God and this mission is all about the kids.
