A great friend and prolific hiker - Archaeopterix is in need of our prayers. Archae has hiked the AT almost every year since 1997 and has completed the trail completely twice with only Maine to go for a third. He thru'd in 2004. During that year and hike he was diagnosed with leukemia and has battled the disease valiantly since. A native of New Jersey, he has lived in New Zealand for over ten years holding dual citizenship. This morning he called to say goodbye as his doctor believes he is near the end of his struggle. Please join me in praying for his recovery. The trail would not be the same without Jack.
