Please pray as I begin my recruiting of A Great Commission Army to provide for Our Chinese 🇨🇳 and Hong Kong 🇭🇰 children! I am driving throughout America asking for teammates of the China Dream team. Can you step up and be monthly financial supporters and or teammates serving the 100,000 Chinese refugee children in California with kids camps? Maybe you can come with us to the Mainland and Hong Kong next summer? Maybe you can come this Spring to serve 14,000 Chinese refugee children in Hawaii? Another option would be to come with us to England to do camps for 250,000 Hong Kong 🇭🇰 children who fled in the last 3 years!
Thank you Lord for Rich and Sue’s generous donation of a God truck 🛻 for our Chinese kids! Thank you thank you thank you! What a blessing to a five year prayer!! I will travel over 1,800 in it sharing missionary updates in Wisconsin, Minnesota Iowa Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, Idaho, Utah, Nevada and California!! So far I have seen many teammates in Wisconsin Minnesota and Missouri. Pray for Angels 😇 on my bumpers!!! 🛻

Our “Transformational Summer Camps” this July 23-August 15 were a great success! We spent a year preparing for a week of focused on providing experiences of boundless-love to children who recently relocated from Hong Kong to England.

We were delighted to add a second camp experience for international refuges families, from all over the world! It was a treat to enjoy new foods and build bridges through sports to newcomers from Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, China.

For us: bridges of friendship make a way for the Love of Jesus to be received.

Dear Coach Enniss, The Lord brought you to mind this morning and I am in the habit of calling when that happens and asking how I can pray 🙏 for you!

I wanted to tell you how grateful I am for your countless hours of investment as an athlete in PE volleyball and track and field at Brighton High.

Your phone number might have changed or you could be in Heaven now with Jesus! I hope you get this!!!

I still have every encouraging quote you gave us at the end of practice in volleyball 🏐 . I had put them in a scrapbook 📔 and my mom and dad have kept that in a trunk for me. I continue to use them, thanks for taking the time to make them for us!

You inspired me to study Sports Medicine and Kinesiology and Sports Psychology. Remember how you taught us to wrap our ankles before every practice? You were before your time. Thanks for fighting for rights of girls to play sports in Utah as well. You did it Title IX!

You took our volleyball team to your cabin for team bonding … what an Investment! As I coached and taught I used you as a model and took all my teams on retreat as I coached 21 sports for 36 years.

God opened doors 🚪 for me to use sports 🏈 🎾 🏀 as an avenue to share Christs love ❤️ in Ukraine 🇺🇦 Russia 🇷🇺 Kosovo 🇽🇰 Mexico 🇲🇽 China 🇨🇳 Japan 🇯🇵 Hong Kong 🇭🇰 Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Australia 🇦🇺 and now England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 with Children! My husband Jeff and I returned not to long ago from living in China 🇨🇳 for six years. I used sports again to build bridges of love and hope of Jesus with the Left Behind children in the poorest villages.

Thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏
