so last week we kicked off club with "get smashed with club beyond" where we dedicated an entire evening to smashing stuff. we started with smashing furniture, then a car, then we threw plates off the third floor of our building and finished with having kids smash their faces into cake in search of a two euro coin. it was a good night. we had like 40 kids there which is pretty crazy, i'm super stoked about all that God is going to do this year. then on thursday we had a squash fest with the middle school kids where we took regular games like ultimate frisbee and an egg toss and substituted in squash for the frisbee and egg. the highlight was probably a toss up between batting practice with squash and bobbing for squash, we had close to thirty kids there which is crazy because last semester we averaged 5-10 kids in the middle school group and we even had some volunteers (three! which is very unusual for middle school club). then friday we took a group of middle school kids to a wildpark which is basically where jurassic park meets the zoo meets a playground on crack. it was a lot of fun and one of the highlights for me was seeing one of our volunteers have her car chased by three llamas. i have such a strange life.
please continue to pray for the ministry here that kids could come and have fun and that truth would be boldly proclaimed.
