July 1

The past two days have been very good. I have been getting to know more and more of the egyptians and they continue to amaze me. They are so incredibly friendly and nice and it is making my stay here so enjoyable. 

Yesterday i noticed during worship time that a lot of the boys i had in soccer were all in one cabin. They were the boys i had grown the closest to during soccer as well. So i asked their counselor if i could come during treasure time (Bible Time) and sit with them. He said yes and also asked if i would share my testimony. I agreed and this morning i went to their cabin and shared with them. I think they enjoyed having me, their American soccer coach, come in and talk about scripture and God. I hope that my being there will help them in their own relationship with God. 

It is incredible to see how God is working over here. I can see him through many of these kids, and I only hope they continue to grow closer to him. There are only two more days of camp left, so please keep these kids in your prayers. Thanks!
