Today, we received a beautiful and touching letter of support from the owners of our lunch location on Day 34 (11/28/2025). Their sincerity and kindness are a powerful reminder of the compassionate spirit that fuels this entire journey.

We are so profoundly grateful for their support and for allowing us to share this letter! We hope that by sharing their words, their warmth and inspiration will spread, demonstrating the open hearts of the communities we walk through.

Please read the thoughtful letter they shared with the Venerable Monks below:
📌Dear Venerable Monks,
On behalf of my family, I want to express our deepest appreciation for your sacred journey and the example of peace you bring into this world. Your commitment to walking with compassion, purpose, and loving-kindness inspires us more than words can fully express.
It is an honor we will carry for our lifetime that you chose our homeland as a place to rest and share a meal. Your presence here blesses this land, and we are truly grateful for the opportunity to support you in even a small way.
Please know that we send our heartfelt blessings with you each day as you continue your journey toward Washington, D.C. May your steps be safe, your spirits be strong, and your message of peace reach all who cross your path.

With gratitude and respect,
Allison Raven
