TIMOTEO FLAG FOOTBALL & OTHER UPDATES


Timoteo Flag Football:
It is amazing how the Holy Spirit is teaching our youth to step up and become leaders themselves. The Junior High Ministry is led by three high school students and four who have come up through the ministry. Rob who is coordinating Junior High has also stepped up as a coach in our Timoteo Flag Football League. He is pictured below discussing strategy with players during our 2006 season. The 2008 season starts Saturday, April 19. Please join us at Scanlon Park, J & Tioga Streets, at 3:30pm each Saturday until June.

Prayer Requests:
· That God would strengthen our young men to be examples that our youth so desperately need in a culture of absent fathers.
· For those who attended the Jr. High Retreat April 11-13.
· Our family will spend a week at a camp called Orchard Hill. Nes will speak to high school youth who attend camp during the week of June 29th.

CityNet/YouthNet Update:
As we prepared to submit our proposal to expand “ONE”, we found out that the director of CityNet had decided to retire. As a result, CityNet’s board set up a team to evaluate its effectiveness and direction. Through that, serious questions about whether CityNet will continue have risen. For the time being our proposal is on hold, and we will continue in our current position at Bethel Temple. Please pray for us and others involved with CityNet, because it has been a frustrating process.


Support Needs:
· Health Insurance Premium. We are in urgent need for an individual, church or other group to sponsor our health insurance premiums. The cost is $550/month or $6600 for one year.

· Opportunities to share the ministry at your church or small group. Our time is flexible and we would love to visit you!

· New monthly commitments
