Volleyball Camp

My mom and I co-directed a middle school volleyball camp through our church's youth ministry, Powerhouse. It was a 3-day camp from 8AM-noon and about 30 girls attended! They came from almost every area school and even a few from farther away! We had a ton of help from Morley Stanwood coach, Matt Kozuch, who ran mostly all the drills. He was a lifesaver because he has a wealth of volleyball knowledge and drills/games. We also had CCA head coach, Mike Shaver, teach a session on passing and Ferris State University volleyball player & Morley Stanwood HS graduate, Ashley Huntey, come in and share her testimony today. We had a registered dietician come in and do a talk on healthy eating and body image with the girls. Along with my sisters, our youth pastor's wife, and a high school volunteer we had a great group of coaches. Each day during snack we had a devotion/faith story sharing time and two girls accepted Christ for the first time. We're praying those girls keep growing and learning more about Jesus Christ and that the girls who didn't respond have time for those seeds of the gospel to grow inside them. Here's a picture of the whole crew.



After volleyball, some of us staff went out to lunch at Pepper's, mmmmm! We chatted about how camp went and any things that we could do differently next year. When Katie and I got home, these little guys were in the back yard. There were 3 of them laying out there in the shade.
