The 2025 season has started!

We kicked off the year attending the ATA show in Indianapolis, Indiana where we helped out with the target the heart breakfast and was able to witness 7 individuals receive Christ that morning! That was a great start to the year. Afterwards we kicked off a five-week archery camp at Leighton Church and had breakfast with a message and teaching kids how to shoot the Genesis Bows afterwards. It was a great time. We started off with 22 children at the first one and after five weeks grew to 29 children along with their parents, it was a great time of sharing Jesus and archery. As soon as the five-week program was over we headed down to Alabama where I was able to visit the Centershot team from Decatur Baptist Church and share a message with them before heading to the very first ASA tournament in Foley, Alabama.

We kicked off the first tournament of the year with a baptism in the gulf of America. I couldn’t think of a better way to start the tournament season, and on that Friday we also launched the brand new tips and testimony where we heard from different professional archers with tips and what Jesus is doing in their life. We had a wonderful turn out for the first one with individuals gathered all around and finished off the tournament with our sunrise church service on Sunday morning before making the long trip back to Michigan. On the way back we had a few mechanical issues with the ministry trailer, breaking leaf springs and wearing out tires along the way. We praise the Lord we were able to limp it all the way back home! We are currently having the trailer repaired but praying for a new one as our current one is running out of room and wearing out after six years of being on the road and around 150,000 miles traveling the country.

We are grateful for all that God is doing in this ministry and for your prayers and partnership as are out there reaching souls for Christ.
