Upward Soccer here we come!I can hardly believe I am as excited about this as I am, but there is just something in my heart stirring and this is somehow connected to that stirring.
I feel like for perhaps the first time in my ministry I am taking a huge risk, a risk I think my senior pastor still has a few reservations about.
It's kind of like perhaps up to this point the greatest risks I had taken were more connected with simply being "in" ministry, and maybe (just maybe) God has moved me past that place.
It is this crazy excitement of not knowing what God will do, mixed with this intense fear it will be an utter failure.
And it is exhilirating.
So, dear blogging friends, I ask for you to pray for me. Pray God will provide funds outside of our church (I'm hoping for $1000). Pray He will bring more kids than I ever could have asked or imagined. Pray this would be just one more way to show Christ to our community.
And pray my feeble faith will keep growing, and that this risk is just the first of many...

woohoo soccer! :)
I may even share my self-coronated soccer queen title with you...
Really, I'm just glad that I get to do soccer with you because that means it will be better executed than I've ever been able to pull off, and that's what the kids deserve.
WooHoo! What an amazing thing God is doing. I can't wait to hear the stories from this incredible journey of faith - for you and the church. I love how you think of something seemingly impossible and overwhelming and God makes it a reality. Good for you - walking in obedience and faith.
