Day 2 Update From the Key West Team

Good morning prayer team. Greetings from Key West.

 We had a good day of ministry on Friday. The registration process for the swim event went very well. I was so proud of our UBC team. Pray that the gospel material that went into the hands of over 150 world class athletes will fall onto good soil. It was so refreshing to see our team serve with such a Christ like spirit. Leah arrived safe and sound last night.

 Today is race day! We will arrive at the beach at 6:45 this morning. We will serve the swimmers by helping load and unload kayaks, preparing food and water, and we will be looking for open doors to share our faith. Pray today for:

 1. Weather - today should be a beautiful day, but they are calling for some strong winds. This will tax those in the water.

 2. Safety - we all are involved in some type of physical activities today. Pray the Lord watch over all.

 3. Gospel - the team will be looking for ways to share our faith today. Some of the swimmers are from other countries, we need your prayer support.

 4. Pastor Bill - this guy continues to amaze us! We watch him do all he does in organizing this event and then he still has the strength to participate and swim all 12.5 miles. He is having some muscle issues in one shoulder. Bill also shares the gospel tonight at the race awards dinner.

 Thanks again for your prayer support. You are making a difference in the kingdom.
