University of Moncton Team Day 2






Day 2: This morning we got up and organized all the Christian books to be distributed on this trip. In total we will distribute 3,750 copies of the “25 Bible stories booklets” and hundreds of other Christian books including 30 New testaments.
We visited the largest school yet with over 650 students. One of the guards at this school was a leg amputee, and he got very excited when I told him about the visit of the Amputee Soccer team. He is going to try and get off from work to attend the training and game.

Right now I am sitting at a school way out in the country and the students are just leaving in their blue uniforms. It is amazing that the internet is working out here!
The most exciting thing is that this morning two people trusted Christ today during one of the trainings we did at school for those who want to help us with evangelism at Wednesday’s tournament final.

In the afternoon, the Canadian women played a friendly match against a group of Haitian women, some of who had played on the National team. The Canadians scored first on a perfect shot that went over the goalie’s head and into the back of the net. Then in the second half, the Haitian women scored on a deflection, so the game ended in a tie.

The Canadian goalie said she had never seen crowds that big in her 5-year University career!

We are expecting even bigger crowds tomorrow for the U-13 boys final!
