I found a plane ticket with Sprint from a little bit further away that’s significantly cheaper than the chepest ones I have been looking at. So I've got my airline flight now!
Also, the organizers of the prayer for America have sent me a notice that they are upgrading my $1200 evening dinner on speaker's ticket to a $1500 all day events ticket. I want to thank the organizers for doing this for me!
YOU contributors are the ones who are making this possible.
Please pray fervently that I make good connections, and perhaps get a good job, or whatever God's will is, and build bridges with other pastoral leaders at this multi denominational gathering!
Again, I want to thank very much those who have contributed, and those who are praying:

I’ve been graciously offered a complimentary ticket to this $1200 event. However, to make this journey possible, I need your support to cover my travel expenses, including airfare and travel to/from the airport in Columbus OH, motel accommodations for two nights and travel to/from the airport in Fort Lauderdale and to/from Mar-a-Lago, etc.
My spiritual father and I are both excited about this opportunity as an Orthodox archpriest, fostering interfaith dialogue and understanding at this high-profile event.
Speakers include Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, and others.
Any amount you can contribute will bring us closer to our goal. And please share this campaign with friends, family, and on social media to spread the word.
Thank you, most of all, for your prayers.
Fr Mark
