Day 3
Amazing Things
"We need to work like it depends on us but we also need to pray like it depends on God."
"Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you."Joshua 3:5
"Consecration is a process of surrender that never ends. And prayer is the catalyst. It begins with the sinners prayer. We confess our sins to the Savior and surrender our lives to His lordship. And along the way, our spiritual journeys are marked by decisive moments when we consecrate ourselves to God in own garden of Gethsemane."

What is your
definition of effective leadership as a student athlete at CU? How would you
apply this definition to the 2014 off-season?

How can you
ensure that the team pursues and lives by the high standards and values that
are clearly set out for the team?
Prayer Request: This is a note from Kennedy Phiri. Kennedy has an amazing testimony and story. We met kennedy last year in Zambia. He has started Ndola Youth Soccer Academy (NYSA). I asked for his prayer requests and this is his response:
Hi Coach Mark, hope you, Aunt Cathy & the rest of the team are enjoying the peace of Lord. We are all in perfect & sound health here. Must confess that our good Lord has been gracious enough to me, my ministry & the rest of the team. It has been one of those challenging years but Jehovah once again saw us through. May I testify to the Glory of God that some prayer items I shared to you have been answered; the Local Authorities have granted me land. a 20m by 30m for my house & a 40m by 70m for 'THE KENNEDY PHIRI FOUNDATION.' Another 3 hecters for NYSA is yet to be handed over. I need to construct a chicken-run so I can start a chicken-raring project with the procedes being used to build my house & also support the Academy & the 'needy' school going children. Please keep standing with us in prayer & also feel free to share what God is doing here to individuals & organisations that share the same passion with us. The greatest challenge for me is SHELTER & the OVC's who are out of school. Keep standing with us.

Let's commit to pray for Kennedy and become part of his story.
