<div>Many of you know &amp; love Mike &amp; Laura- not only for their excellence in the world of combat sports, but for the way they have poured themselves out for others through their lives, business, &amp; ministry efforts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, Mike suffered a medical emergency causing him to lose his vision. After an ER visit, a couple of nights spent in the ICU &amp; several tests done, the doctors diagnosed him with damage to his left cranial nerve 6. Additionally, they found a tare on his cervical spine membrane causing a leak of fluid. After being discharged &amp; getting a second opinion, it’s been discovered that Mike actually suffered a small medial right thalamus stroke. As a result, he was placed on mandatory bed rest &amp; unable to coach or work for an unseen amount of time. He has a lot of medical appointments coming up to make a plan for the best path forward. This unexpected health crisis has brought both physical &amp; financial challenges, especially as Mike &amp; Laura are new business owners and have not acquired health insurance, and pay out of pocket for all medical expenses. While Mike focuses on healing &amp; recovery, we want to rally together as a Body of Christ &amp; community to help shoulder this burden with them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As owners of Glory Combat Sports &amp; Fitness, their hearts are to see people, “Live their best, be their best &amp; live transformed lives through combat sports and their faith in Jesus.” They have built a space where people are encouraged not only in strength &amp; discipline, but in faith &amp; community. Week after week, they cultivate an encouraging atmosphere providing 25 classes, one on one training, and in addition mentor men and woman individually while hosting weekend Bible studies.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They are also a chapter of Gathering of Neighbors, a growing network of micro church expressions meeting around fires in campgrounds, homes, restaurants, &amp; even on the streets to bring the true gospel of Jesus Christ to people where they are. I have had the privilege &amp; joy of coaching &amp; mentoring Laura over the last several months, &amp; I have heard their deep commitment to the Lord &amp; to serving others.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, it’s our turn to give back. Mike &amp; Laura have invested their lives into building others up- spiritually, physically, &amp; emotionally. Let’s wrap our arms around them as the Body of Christ &amp; as a community, showing them they are not alone in this fight.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All funds will go toward covering Mike’s medical expenses, future appointments, outpatient therapy, &amp; helping them navigate this unexpected season without the crushing weight of financial strain. Your gift, no matter the size, is appreciated &amp; will make a real difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please donate, share this, &amp; keep them lifted in prayer for accelerated healing, provision, &amp; peace.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your prayerful consideration &amp; willingness to help.
</div>
