World Cup Recap


This is way overdue, but its time for our World Cup recap.
We had a great program going on in Ocean View at the turf field that we were given permission to use by the city. We met for a total of 6 sessions working on different skills each time. Our main content came by using words that were being used a lot during the World Cup to talk about Jesus. Here is a sampling:
Ke Nako= it's time, it's Africa's time; GOOD NEWS
Used it to talk about the Good News of Jesus coming to live among us
Waka, Waka= joyful, full of life
Talked specifically about John 10:10, that Jesus came to give us life & life abundantly.
Ayoba= amazement
Used it to talk about some of the miracles of God.
Jabulani= to celebrate
We talked this day about us celebrating the things God is doing in our lives.

It was a great way to put the truths of Jesus into a context that they were being bombarded with. Hopefully, as they continued to hear those terms they connected them with Christ.

These pics are from the Jabulani day. We worked on shooting that day, and if they scored they had to celebrate!
