The second day of our Coaching 4 Christ event went much like the first day. Rain, rain, rain and then...........
SUNSHINE!!
So far the week has beat anything I have seen here in the country of England and it was evident to us all that God was showing off just for us...and He was not done yet!As near as I could count, we had 20 children on the pitch and at least 5 younger ones on the side-lines. It was so great to see the kids interest grow as well as their football / soccer skills! The parents seem to be just as thrilled as we were!
One of the members of our church, Douglas, brought his nephew, Oliver, with him for the football. Oliver is 11 years old and after the football was over on Monday, he told Doug that he would like to speak to Andy about accepting Christ. Today, after all was said and done, Andy had the wonderful privilege of leading Oliver to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ right there on the grass next to the playing field! Well Glory! What a happy time we have had together just rejoicing at the victory won through one soul coming to know Christ!
Day 2 is over but Oliver's life in Christ is just beginning. What a joy to know that prayer works! Faith works! Love for these children works!
God is always at work!!
