Kids' Fire



Have you ever staretd something out of obedience later to find out the real reason God called you to it in the first place? What a sovern God we serve! He knows exactly what to share with us and what to linger in revealing so that our faith may grow and evolve.

As we saw an urgent need for the families to be invited to learn together, we began a series of weekly activities centered around Christian education through games outdoors. With one PE teacher and a few soccer balls, we started Saturday mornings to invite the kids to learn through recreation and having fun together. This was an opportunity for them to grow in their love for physical activity and learning important Christian values like self-discipline, team work, obedience, etc.

As we plunged into the months ahead, getting up early on a Saturday morning ground on our motivation, including the small turn out as we prepared the activities week after week.

God, if you told us this was a need, and that this activity was Your plan, where is Your confirmation that You are satified with us?

God had already anticipated our weaknesses, and He revealed Himself as our strength in this moment of encounter. He brought out of the woodwork a couple passionate to grow in their walk with Christ, hungry to reach out to their community and eager to be pushed to look a little harder for God´s guidance in their leadership.

A diamond in the rough.

This is where in the last few months of 2009, we saw God´s back up cultivate a valuable friendship with Luis Diego and Cindy, a precious couple who seek to help in counselling and Christian testimony other couples in need in their community and their families.

So the Sports´activity became Kids' Fire, based on the true testing of our faith as gold through fire, we also desire for the families and their children to become more pure and stronger through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
