Year report and results Weissensee

Traveling Light ice skating team on the Weissensee
The 200 km marathon ice skating tour on the Weissensee in Austria is behind us. We are still waiting for an detailed report from our skating team, but we can already sharethe results:
  • Krijn Donk finished in a time of 7:41; not enough to break a personal record, but still an amazing performance, putting him within the top 50 of more than a thousand participants.
  • Henk Swijnenburg finished in a time of 11:19. He has shown incredible endurance and perseverance. We are proud of his performance even though he has not been able to break his personal record.
  • Henk Vlot started out well, but unfortunately he had to step out of the race after about 75 km. He broke his hand when he fell on the ice. Pretty disappointing for him, as he was doing so well. But, let's hope and pray he can show off his skills some other time.

keep going
If you promised to sponsor our team, please send your donation to St. Traveling Light, Papendrecht, IBAN: NL91RABO0118582275, BIC: RABONL2U stating: WEISSENSEE. We will post a more extensive report and the final results for the expansion of the Teen Challenge men's rehabilitation home in Moldova on this blog.

What we also have to post publicly as a non-profit, is our annual financial report.

Our treasurer Martin deHaas takes care of this every year. A short report can be found on our website. We have also created an infographic for your convenience; a small card showing our activities and results at a glance.

The amount of money we can give away is important, of course. But we never want it to be, or become, our focus. We have a đź’— for mission, for nations and people and for outreach. Everyone who supports us in any form: THANK YOU! Without your help it is not possible.
