Go Falcons!!



Nick is coaching the Falcon's football team again this year. It is a ministry through our church to children and families in the community that are unchurched and from different cultures. The teams are made up of Redeemer children and children from neighboring housing projects. He has loved continuing to build relationships and invest in their life while at the same time teaching them football. I have been coaching the cheerleaders as well and am thankful that I am able to be apart of the ministry too.
Last Friday night we had a pep rally at the church to kick off the season. It gave me chill bumps seeing all those children and families hearing the gospel and cheering for the munchkins. The players ran throught the banners and then the head coach of eah team introduced the players. Please pray that the Lord would continue to bless this ministry and use it to glorify Him!
