Dear RUTS family,
As many of you already know, Mike Martin was in a serious motorcycle accident 10 days ago. Many of you may not know Mike, so let me give you a little history on him...Mike had been with us for about 4 years now. While not making the rides as often as he may like this year, Mike has been a constant supporter and prayer warrior for this group. Many of you may know Mike as the "ridiculously fast guy on the orange bike". Mike is always the first one to help you when you needed a hand.
Mike, by trade, is an equipment operator. He owns his own business and is the sole provider for the family. He is currently out of work and might be for quite some time. I am asking that all of us continue to keep Mike and the entire Martin family in our prayers. For a speedy recovery and to give the doctors the wisdom and guidance they need.
Here are some pictures of Mike http://picasaweb.google.com/scotty.a.burnett/MikeMartin#5316243980119257730
What we are asking of you now, during these trying financial times, is to give what you are able to give, even if its only $5 or $10. In the parable of the widows offering Jesus tells us that giving out of our poverty is pleasing to God. Monetary gifts of any size are truly appreciated and when you give from your heart your return is tenfold. This could be any one of us, and what an opportunity we have to give to a fellow brother in Christ! The Martin family is in need of our help and we are a family with tremendous resources when we work together!
There are 3 ways to give:
1. PayPal - do a "Send Money" through PayPal to mike.martin.concrete@gmail.com Anyone who has been on Ebay has one of these and it's probably the easiest and quickest way to transfer funds. (DON’T SEND ANY EMAIL TO THIS ADDRESS, its just set up for pay-pal.)
2. Make a deposit at any Chase/WAMU bank. We have set up an account for the Martin Family. All you have to do is walk into ANY BRANCH with the account number and it will be deposited into his account. Easy Peasy! The account number is ....(email me for it)... and is the name of Robert Murray (a banker friend who set it up, also a friend of Mikes)
3. Send a check. You can send a check made out to Scott Burnett or Robert Murray and we will make sure that this money gets to his new Chase account. My address is 1314 Old Ranch Road Corona, CA 92630
The Martin family holds a special place in the hearts of many of us. If you are able to give at all, I know that it will be truly appreciated and that it will be blessed as will you!
The money raised will be used by Mikes family to keep the electricity on, gas in the car, food on the table and other necessitates, while Mike is recovering.
Thanks,
Scott Burnett

Kudos to Dan O'Connell and Robert Murray from InTheDirt.org for helping set this up for the Martin's. They have been a true blessing!
