Slam Soccer Team 10/17/2011
 
Dear SLAM

Last Saturday the soccer team visited two units at Cobham Juvenile Justice Centre.

We couldn’t play any sport because repair works were being carried out inside the prison, instead we spent the time around the inmates’ cells. It provided more time for personal conversation and discussion.

There was one boy, who when we first introduced ourselves, said he was convinced that God wouldn't do anything for him, and walked away. But after hearing the message he began asking questions, and wanted a copy of the Bible. We also had a discussion with two boys who had questions about the person of the Lord Jesus, and about how God could be manifested in flesh.

Unlike the times when we play sport, the boys this time weren’t restricted to being in one area. Sadly, some of them, especially in the second unit, chose to sit elsewhere during the testimony and message.

The inmates in each unit were given tracts before we left. Please pray for the words that were spoken, both through the Gospel messages, and through the several conversations that took place.

The soccer team
