The Week After...

Soccer Camp is by far our largest event of the year...90% of our people get involved...we pray HARD for something GOD-SIZED to happen...something that is bigger than we are...and last week it happened...with over 120 decisions for Christ...over 400 kids...more than 100 volunteers...9 baptisms on Sunday...150 at our service on Sunday...GOD MOVED...

So what happens the week after? You pray and pray and pray for God to show up and he does...THEN Monday comes and there is this spiritual/emotional/physical...ugh...that happens. I have been PRAYING hard for our people to push through the UGH! To remember all that God did last week...to rest as they can and to THRIVE inside of dive...I have watched families just take a nose dive after an amazing week of touching lives...WHY? Because "the enemy" HATES what you did and wants to stomp you down.

TO THE PEOPLE OF GRACE...I am praying for you to STAND UP UNDER WHATEVER is thrown at you this week, because OUR GOD will give you the strength to do that! I am sooooooooooooo proud of all of you! VERY PROUD and I look forward to seeing you tonight at the Blumes for a post-camp hang-out time!
