First Month Gone - AHSA

FCA Soccer in the City!      It has been quite a go since kicking off the first official soccer academy in Allen Hills. Though there are inconsistent numbers at practices & games, we have seen a tremendous commitment level from a handful of the players! In fact, they are the ones out in the community raising awareness amongst the other families.               Our biggest challenge isn't getting the children there, but what do we do with them once they are there. CHANGING the MINDSET. These kids come from little to no structure in the home and basically walk out whenever adversity (losing, not getting the ball passed to them) comes into sight. But the funny thing is, they don't want to leave! They just want to make sure everyone else around knows they are upset. But that's just kids, right? Sure, but all of us need someone to be there to encourage us to keep going and do what right, despite how upset or hurt we are. Previous Theme: Jesus is the light of the world Current Theme: Jesus invites us to be the light of the world Please continue to pray for us as these kids live in a very dark place. We want them to know and shine HIS LIGHT! "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden." Matthew 5:14
