Sport Camp Day 1

Today was the first day of our Sports Camp in the city park.  We had 86 kids from the community attend.  They participated in various sports - football, basketball, soccer, cheerleading and baseball.  Pastor Grady, the pastor at FBC Lytle, had the opportunity to share Christ with one of the dads at the camp and he accepted Christ today!  All the children that came to the camp experienced the love of Christ first hand as they learned about their sport, did a craft and heard about Jesus from our kids and adults.  We were so proud of our Prosper kids - they all worked really hard today and were true servants.  The kitchen remodel at the church began this morning as well with that team. They also got an amazing amount of work done on that very large project.  We will post before and after pictures some time later in the week.  Those guys are working very hard all day on getting that done for the church.  

In the afternoon, we focused on painting several classrooms at the church.  Our kids got right in there and we got several rooms primed to finish up tomorrow.  After dinner, many of the kids and some adults played a game of kickball with some families from FBC Lytle.  We are all exhausted tonight but it was a GREAT day and we look forward to what God will do tomorrow as we serve Him by serving the kids He has brought our way.  Keep praying for us - for spiritual eyes and ears to be obedient to what God says.  Pray for us to have good rest as well as for our health and safety.
