Ben took place in the On Goal soccer camp this summer. He had an absolute blast and can't wait to do it again next year. Below is a little info about on goal from their website http://www.ongoal.org
On Goal is a Christian ministry focused on leading people toward life's greatest goal - knowing Jesus!
Through unique soccer programs focused on coaching excellence in a positive atmosphere, On Goal has impacted thousands of lives and enabled churches around the world to reach their communities.
On Goal began in 1985 when Tom Fite's love for soccer and passion to serve God became the first On Goal Soccer Camp.
On Goal continues to conduct outstanding soccer camps and has added the On Goal Futsal program. In every program, On Goal encourages each player to become The Total Player™.
Speaking of being a Total player. Each day the children were encouraged to participate in activities completely, listen during Bible time, Share, help and show a good attitude. The top Children each day were given the honor of being the Total player for their team each day.
Here is Ben running through the tunnel on the day he was his team's (the golden midget's) Total Player.
Bryce and Jake had lots of fun all week playing on the playground and watching their older brothers. Both wished they were old enough to play soccer as well. A few more years guys
These are some shots of Ben during group time. This past week he was able to memorize Philippians 2:9-11 which says
"Therefore He exulted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow in Heaven and on Earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the Glory of God the father" Ask him and he will say it for you. It is pretty impressive if you ask me.
Ben's favorite game of the week was Wolfy Wolfy. They would ask "wolfy, wolfy what time is it" he would respond with a time and the kids would have to kick their soccer ball that many times. when he said lunchtime the kids had to run back to their line without being caught. They all seemed to love it.
