Vball Clinic in Costa Rica (CCC)
This morning we had the opportunity to conduct a volleyball clinic in a public middle school. The young people were so receptive to the basic skills we introduced to them. They barely knew us and yet they were respectful and open to instruction.
Although there was a language barrier, we still were able to show our enthusiasm and care for them by smiling, positive responses, and taking time with each individual. We showed them forearm passing, overhead passing, serving and spiking.
Most importantly we demonstrated God’s love to them. After the session, Kayla shared her testimony and a SCORE representative finished with a salvation message. A seed was planted in each heart and that is more important than any volleyball skill they might have learned.
I’m thankful for the opportunity to work with the youth of Costa Rica in teaching them about the game I love and the God whom I love above all!
