Starbucks Prayers
Sitting here in a Myrtle Beach Starbucks (Fresh Brewed is closed on Sunday’s) working on a bunch of stuff for the journey…more posts throughout the day!
So I am in Starbucks working on my laptop and some of the customers start asking me questions about my journey. I start talking to everyone and half the coffee shop starts listening. When I am done, a man asks if he can say a prayer for me. I said “Sure”. Then another customer came over and joined in…and another and another and another. They all joined hands. I had five people in a Starbucks saying a prayer for me out loud in the restaurant…total strangers came together and said a prayer for my safety and purpose of mission. Afterwards they gave me a donation…$40 in all. I got a picture with them…it’s a bit blurry but I still would like to share it.
Absolutely amazing. People ARE good. I am experiencing it every minute of everyday throughout this journey.
Thats so awsome man. Keep up the good work, this is turning out to be an awsome Journey for you and everyone you come across. Keep spreading joy and hope brother.
Andrew,
People are surprising me at every turn. I am SO BLESSED to be on this journey. I recognize that and will never take it for granted!

I was at Starbucks last night and though I wasn’t sure what was going on over on that side of the room I noticed your shirt as I was leaving and wanted to look you up. My friend ( who is a “moped” rider) and I were most interested in your Ruckus and rugged trailer and he drooled over it for a couple of minutes. After looking you up today I wanted to say cool bike and good luck on your journey. Hope it’s still warm when you hit Canada!
Lucas,
Thanks for the positive comments. My friends and I built the trailer for this journey. Keep checking back…I’m sure I’ll have lots more stories!
