Competitive Fellowship

- Brussels team celebrating Competitive Fellowship -

For the third year in a row some friends of mine organized a Belgian and Holland wide event called Copa Benelux. The aim is to bring christians together from all over Belgium and The Netherlands to have fun playing indoor soccer, giving people a chance to see friends from far away, to have an opportunity to fellowship and worship together. Last Saturday 99 people converged on a sport hall in Herentals, Belgium for some fun.


- Ghent's Roland defending like a pro -

This idea stolen from the Swiss churches has been a great event to bring non church friends to so they can get to know some of their peers in other churches, as well as see what fun Christians can have. This is an event that gets the older people playing together with the younger people, and girls playing with boys (there is a rule that every team has to have a girl.)


- The Eindhoven cheerleaders are great encouragers -

The day always includes a time when everyone takes a break sits down and worships together. I was asked to lead this moment of worship and devotional and it was great to be able to hear God's name honored in this way. We sung in Flemish and in English because both language groups were represented. Thank you Lord for moments like these to see our family again, praise you again, and play a fun game together again.
