Soccer Fellowship Report (13th October)

It was a wet field following the heavy rain . Thank God for a not-bad condition for soccer as weather was cool and ground was soft. By around 3.15 pm, about 13 players arrived. Without further waiting, it was time for devotion. The Bible  text was taken from Joshua 1: 9 "Be strong and of good courage; do to be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. " A message to assure us that God is always  in control and He will never leave us. After prayer, it was time to hit the field!

It was 6 youngsters against 7 mostly older players.  Scoring allowed only in the inner box without goalkeeper.  At the end of half time, the 7 players did better to win 9-6. Before resuming play for 2nd half, 4 of our young players had to leave us for another appointment. It would have been our 9 players left to play but fortunately, 10 sec 4 kids arrived and were invited to play against us in a friendly. This time scoring allowed anywhere with goalkeepers.
The kids mostly displayed fairly good individual skills, fast and lots of stamina but lack teamwork. Our 9 players who are familiar with one another did better to win them with a score of 4-2.

By 5.00pm, the field warden signalled us to stop play. Thank God for the wonderful time time of soccer fellowship!

6th Oct - First Soccer Fellowship since Crossoad 2012

This was our first fellowship on a Saturday since the curtain fell on our maiden CrossRoad campaign 2012. The weather was cooling with heavy downpour threatening at our doorsteps. The dark cloud was waiting to pounce from north/northeastern direction. Thank God the rain cloud withheld its weapon.



We started the fellowship with me sharing the topic on Richest Fool, highlighting a passage from Luke 12:13-21, emphasising on building up riches not ourselves but for God. After the sharing, I opened the fellowship with a prayer and then the group was split between mainly whites and mainly blue/red for the game. I had to excuse my myself from the game because of an elbow injury. However, the turnout was quite good with about 18 of us playing. In fact this was much better than expected actually.

The game started brightly for both sides, with good ball possession and dribbling skills displayed. I was blessed to be able to see both sides score a few goals before I left the venue for my appointment that Saturday. I remembered the score was 3-2 with the blue/red leading (they were also the one who opened the scoring account) when I leave.

In the end, Marcus informed me that the final score was 6-5 to the blue/red team. I will assume that the second part of the game was balanced between the two teams with six more goals added by both sides. It must have been a very good outing for all of us PMC players. Kudos to all! God bless!

Oh btw, oops! I took some photographs during the play but at this point of time, have not downloaded them from my iPhone. I will do so in my next blogging. Sorry!! And enjoy the week!
