Andrew and Marcus started coaching a freshmen-aged boys basketball team in September. It has been a great opportunity to be a light for Christ as well as invest in the future of basketball in Strumica. Andrew is a fantastic coach; he sees the court really well, shows a lot of love to the guys, and I can tell they really respect him and Marcus. They have a really talented group with a winning record. Yesterday, they played at ABA and defeated a team that had previously beat them by a large margin. Such a good game to watch! They have an incredibly long season. It goes well into May; unfortunately, as things currently stand, neither Andrew nor Marcus will be able to see them to the end. We're hoping and praying that the time they get to spend with the guys creates a lasting impact for Christ.

If you (with or without Andrew) are in Skopje, let me know... I'd love to get to spend some more time with you. Or if you just want to come to Skopje, our home is open!
