Opening Day in Taylorville!- Taylorville CC 6/3/23 Preview

I have had the opportunity to lead our youth group at church the last several years.  Besides leading a Wednesday night bible study for our teens, it also means I have played plenty of ultimate frisbee and eaten countless slices of Little Caesars pizza!


We just started a bible study going through 2 Timothy two weeks ago. Sharing the Gospel can be frightening and hard to do sometimes, but for those of us who are believers, we know that is a command that we need to obey.  


2 Timothy 1:7-  for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.  


There is a peace that we can have knowing that God is ultimately the one who changes people’s lives and we don’t need to be afraid when talking to others about Him.  Please pray for us this Saturday as we will have an opportunity to talk to several guys.  Pray that we would be bold and unashamed as we proclaim the good news of the Gospel!


After having our first visit of the year postponed, we are making our long anticipated season debut Saturday at Taylorville CC.  Taylorville is a fun place to play and minister and we are all looking forward to heading back!  This will be our 5th trip to Taylorville since 2016.  


During our day, we are scheduled to play four games and share the Gospel twice.  Chris Onken and Nick Sauder are sharing their testimonies and Josh Frederick and Brent Gerber will be sharing the Gospel.  


Please pray for our team, our families, and traveling mercies but above all else, please keep our team in prayer as we share the Gospel with the men on the yard.  Pray that God draws people to Himself while we play and share about Him.  


Thank you for praying for the Saints Prison Ministry!
