We had the 5-on-5 basketball tournament today. Joe started it off with a few worship songs, and then Josh gave a short devotional. Roman gave a testimony. I liked how he started by saying something like, "Dressed in this jersey and shorts, I look like a basketball player. But you won't know whether I'm a good basketball player or not until you see me play later on in the courts. In the same way, I may go to church every Sunday, go to youth group, Sunday School, etc., but you won't know what kind of Christian I am unless you see my heart." It was great to see him give his testimony. And to think that some of the guys met him through a pickup game at Heritage Park a few months back. Anyway, it was a single elimination tournament with four really good teams. It was pretty intense, but Roman's team came out on top at the end. Fun fun fun.
Afterward, a few of us hung out at the Abesamis house. It looks like King, Faye, Ed, and Aimee are not going to be around this Friday. So that means Icy and Josh are going to end up teaching youth group that night. I think Justine and I are supposed to help out, too. The regular leaders thus helped us substitute teachers prepare for Friday night over pizza.
