Day 2: National Gym and Circulo Deportivo

After a great nights sleep we woke up this morning and had a great breakfast at Telma's house. After that Coach Mitchell led us in a devotional time looking at John chapter 3. 
Next, we headed out to play a game in Guatemala's National Gym against a team competing in the Under 17 National Tourney in the next few weeks. The result wasn't what we had hoped but the guys fought hard and we will have another chance to play them next week. After the game Graham did a great job sharing his testimony with they guys from both teams as well as several other onlookers.



Next, we piled back in the bus and headed towards our next location. We made a lunch stop at Pollo Campero for some chicken. Then we were ready to head to The La Florida Zona in Guatemala City to play against a local youth team on an outdoor court called Circulo Deprtivo. It was a really fun atmosphere with lots of people from the neighborhood coming out to watch and surrounding the court. We played much better this afternoon and were able to come away with the victory. At halftime Mitch shared his testimony with the teams and all of the folks who had come out to watch. He did a very good job sharing his story with such a large group. 



After the game we headed back to Telma's house for showers and dinner. 

Tomorrow we are waking up early to head to a town about an hour away to conduct a clinic and play another game.
