We are extremely blessed this week to have some excellent
individuals join us at Dar El Awlad for a sports camp. The heart and mind behind the program has
been Alan and Tim from Northern Ireland and Charlie from Egypt. They have helped coordinate clinics and
activities for DEA home and school children as well as dozens of refugee
children from the surrounding areas.
Overall, over 60 children have received top-notch coaching on football
and, most importantly, living a life with God.
As valuable as the experience has been on the children, it has been even
more helpful for staff and volunteers who are gaining firsthand experience on
how simple sports camps and sessions can be to develop character in youth. I’m confident that the training we are receiving
will help us build on this camp long after our guests have gone. It is encouraging to see how dynamic yet
straightforward children’s ministry can be.
No doubt this week will continue to have meaningful impact on the
ministry in the times ahead. We’re so
thankful for people who have passion to share their gifts with us here at DEA,
and we thank God for friends like Alan, Tim and Charlie.
