What an amazing weekend. We joined 800 volunteers who tirelessly worked all weekend to show God’s love in practical ways. 120 children came and played in football tournaments over 4 locations (3 of which were put on during the fun days in Lockleaze, Horfield and Southmead and we were also at Sea Mills). On Saturday we cleared the pitch for 8 teenagers while the children tried their football skills at various stations. Over the weekend 29 Gideon New Testament bibles were given out. The weather on Monday turned for the worst but it didn’t hampen our spirits and God was in control. We saw rain of biblical proportions and finally had to call it a day as they ran off for shelter. One of the highlights of the weekend was listening to the children sing as they played football to a well known music track over the PA system. It was a brilliant weekend with lots of great conversations with children and their parents and the skillful football played made for an exciting weekend.

It was one of the hottest evenings we have had in a while.  18 players turned up to demonstrate and join in with some friendly competition. We weren’t disappointed as the defending champions pulled out all the stops on Monday to keep their title. They just couldn’t hold off Cosmic’s team who ended up winning three of their games and losing the last one  which left Mustard tree behind this time. It was an impressive steal back of the championship. We had a great night of banter on and off the pitch with some great sideline commentary. A huge thank you to Matt for sharing his personal journey and his challenge to pursue God in the next stage. Matt is soon to leave for America and we hope and pray for a safe trip for him, great experiences and a deepening of his relationship with God over summer.  Our next tournament is on July 16th and we look forward to seeing you there!
