This past Sunday, I got to catch up with Larry and Micah Koorneef, a week from being back from Cambodia. Jet-lag over, they expressed gratefulness for the soccer balls and shirts that they were able to take over to the orphans in Cambodia. They also enjoyed meeting Setan Lee and observing and working alongside him and his ministry TransformAsia. Micah even became the new drone pilot for Setan as he video recorded the different facilities and work for the ministry! Micah, made a travel journal during his trip. Here is the entry from the day that they handed out gear to the children at the orphanage: Day 7: Today is Monday. The kids are clingy and won’t stop touching you--very tiring

The team from partner church, Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church, returned from Kampala, Uganda and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in July. The team of 19 students and leaders returned with some great stories and pictures of their time in these two African countries.  While the team was in Uganda, they ministered with Youth for Christ (YFC).

In a first for Soccer Chaplains United Community Project requests, Larry and Micah Koorneef are heading to Cambodia this August.

As a family we have been praying for years about the specific destination and timing of such a trip...this past fall we started studying up on SE Asia (because that was my dream) and eventually Cambodia in particular. God enabled us to partner with TransformAsia this spring and plan a way to serve with them this summer.Micah

I had the privilege, last week, of spending time here in Colorado with many different members of the EPC (Evangelical Presbyterian Church) during the denominations' 39th annual General Assembly. The General Assembly was hosted by Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church (one of our partner churches) and featured a week long gathering with worship, leadership and education tracks, networking, and conducting church business (voting on constitutional pieces, etc.). The week started, for me, on Monday by joining some of the pastors up at Beaver Ranch Disc Golf Course for a round of disc golf.

The youth group at Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church, one of Soccer Chaplains United's partner churches, will be taking a trip to Kampala, Uganda and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in July. A team of 19 students and leaders, passionate about serving the Lord and others, will leave for a couple of weeks to travel to Ethiopia and Uganda and work with different groups and organizations in each country.
