Back in Belo

well we made it to Belo on Saturday. It was way too much traveling for me, but i'm thankful that we all made it here safe. Sunday morning we had a great time of worship, much needed to start off a long week of hard work here in the city. It's great to be back here in Belo, I remember now how much I love this place.
Yesterday and today we did basketball clinics in a male prison. Some of our team members were nervous about working in the prison but it has been great and we have seen God do amazing things. We did four different sessions with almost 20 men giving their lives to Christ in each session. We have watched grown men weep and cry because of their brokenness before God and it is amazing. The Lord has really done huge things through our team. Today I shared my testimony with the men. I would not have thought that my testimony would be effective with men in prison, but then I was quickly reminded that it's not about my story, but about how Jesus changed my life. And those men needed Jesus to changed their lives. I'm so humbled by what God has done in the last two days. And I pray that He continues to do the same in the days to come.
Pray for strength and energy for our team, and all of the teams, as we work hard each day. It is very tiring to play basketball and soccer all day, everyday. Pray that God gives us the strength we need. Pray that we surrender ourselves to what God wants to do!!!!
