When I first became a Christian I looked down on my love for sports. I knew that I needed to spend more time with God and if I cut out sports I would have plenty of time for Him. But during my Josiah Project summer God showed me the things I love can bring Him glory. So, we decided to start the Ambridge Sports Camp, Shea and I love Jesus and love sports and we attempted to mix the two together and see what came out.
As sports has become a golden ticket to college or to a wealthy life, I see us headed backwards, back to when you played sports for fun, to be around friends and to challenge yourself in being the best you could be.
That's what we want the Ambridge Sports Camp to be; a place for youth to have the opportunity to be youth, a place where they can be with their friends and make new friends, a place to be challenged athletically, mentally and spiritually and a place to have fun. Its work for the past 4 years. Hopefully the Ambridge Sports Camp will continue to be a place where we see God glorified in a camp and in sports.
