We are gearing up for another trip to the South Pacific to minister to youth through basketball. The tentative plans are to spend time on both the islands of Chuuk and Pohnpei.
It is so much fun to spend time with the youth on these islands. They have very limited access to much of the world outside of their islands. Basketball is a language that transcends language barriers and through basketball instruction we are able to share a message of hope and encourage the youth.
It is truly a blessing to be involved with Youth Team Sports and I am excited about the prospects of traveling to Chuuk and Pohnpei. 2007 represents a fresh beginning, a chance to step away from the status quo as a believer.
We need to reflect Christ in our everday lives and, hopefully, we will reach and impact the world around us. During the past two summerswe've found that if we can glorify God in that moment of play and games, then He will take care of the rest.

When you come to Chuuk you can visit Mizpah Christian High School. I'm on my second year of teaching and our guys won the basketball championship this year!
