We taught VBS at the soccer school in Altavista in the afternoons. The kids were so well behaved! The purpose of the soccer school is to keep the children in Altavista and nearby communities involved in something they can be proud of and away from the violence and heartbreak that comes with gangs. Altavista was the area that we worked in which had the most trouble with gangs... The youth spend half their time together playing soccer and learning techniques and the other half learning about Jesus. This has proven to be very good for not only the children in the program, but their entire families.
Each day that we visited them, it was so HOT. Some days, Ryan did drills with them. By the end of the trip, we got to know the kids and their coaches very well.
