Timau Soccer Outreach

09 Oct 2014

The Timau Churches’ annual Soccer Tournament and Evangelistic outreach has finally concluded with great spiritual victory!  Because of a number of drawn matches, the series was extended several weeks, giving more opportunities to preach the Gospel.  Game crowdThe championship game looked more like a gospel crusade than a soccer match!  27 people gave their lives to Jesus, which brought the total to 63 for the series!  Pastor Stephen writes.. “when the winning team was celebrating their soccer victory, we were celebrating the spiritual victory.”  Thanks to all of you who prayed for this outreach!  As I told you before, some of our present-day church planters have been reached for Christ and entered our Bible Institute as a result of the sports evangelism programs in several of our Churches like Timau.

Another Church which uses this profitable tool is Crossroads Baptist Church in Rumuruti.  Pastor John Longisa has had a passion for reaching youth this way for many years.   WaterBy the way, John and his dear wife, Lucy, are up in the wild and inhospitable far-North of Kenya right now, preaching and surveying places which need the Gospel.  John and Lucy’s deep commitment is an inspiration to us!

Brother Andrew Lettsome is leading this expedition to the North, with the aim of facilitating new chuch plants in this isolated area.  Vehicle problems are one of the greatest challenges out there!  Andew finally got a servicable vehicle, and it is already showing the strain of just this one trip to that wild country!  Please pray for Andrew!
