Our fifth full day in Uganda was the busiest day yet. Our day began at a local village in Soroti for a
devotional with Bishop George. This man had a grin from ear to ear and was full of God's love and the
joy of Christ. It was a blessing getting to worship with him, and Uncle Sam, our dear leader

moved and challenged each and every one of us. After our time of fellowship, we visited four different
schools and had the opportunity to teach the local kids them in football, field hockey, and baseball, as
well as do some speed and agility drills. It was amazing to see how God works through sport and the
connections that a simple ball can bring to people that have nothing else in common. The kids ranged
anywhere from 8 or nine years old up to 19 or 20. Throughout the day, countless numbers of kids gave
their lives to Christ after hearing numerous testimonies from every one of us.

able to be encouraged and encourage them. Their faith and dedication to athletic excellence is admirable
and all of us have learned from them how to better represent Christ in the realm of athletics and their
friendship is something that will be with us the rest of our lives.
