Neighborhood Soccer Outreach tonight!

In many neighborhoods in Haiti they hold "Ti Kan"(small goal - about 2ft by 1 ft) 3 on 3 soccer tournaments during the summer to provide some healthy activities for youth. They hold these tournaments around 10 PM because they block off the streets to have a place to play.

When I (Rich) got back to Haiti at the end of July our neighborhood was making preparations to hold one of these tournaments so I prayed about how we could use this event for evangelism and I talked to some of the young men who play "ti Kan" with Ricky and I in our driveway most evenings. We decided to enter the tournament and also got the idea of partnering with Campus Crusade for Christ and a local church to show the "Jesus Film" before the semi-final games tonight. We will then do clear presentation of the Gospel at halftime and invite people to trust in Christ.

Please pray that it does not rain and that lots of people will come before the games to watch the movie. Pray also that the Holy Spirit touches the hearts of many people and opens their eyes to their need of salvation. Thanks!
