Our Last Ministry Opportunity


The men of the team along with Mike road up to the police check point to get a game of basketball with the chief and colleagues. But before they could play basketball on the court, there one small problem.  There was a huge passenger bus sitting on the basketball court.  The chief gave Mike the keys to move the bus.  Mike could not get it to move.  So the chief went up on the highway until he found someone who could move the bus.  He literally pulled a man off another bus passing through the check point to move the bus.    Pastor Nick did not know the correct manners  of Honduran basketball.  You do not knock the ball out of the chief's hand especially if you want to win his graces.  Everyone had a great time and Mike decided to call it a game when it tied up 6-6. 
At the end of the day everyone walked away feeling good about their basketball game experience.

Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor's crown except by competing according to the rules.
2 Timothy 2:5
