Hoops – Basketball Camp


This weekend Danny held the “Hoops” basketball camp in Andernach (close to Koblenz) about half an hour from our house. Young basketball players came together to improve their skills and to hear more about God. Spontanious as Danny is, he invited Manuela along to cook for the boys and girls
which she enjoyed doing …
… starting out with a practice on Friday, bible study in the evening and the big game on Saturday against the SG Basket team.
This year we had we had two guests from “Ambassadors in Sports” at the camp. Two young men, Phil from Mexico and Glen from Northern Ireland. They are travelling for 75 days through 11 European countries to motivate and encourage different Christian Sports Missions. They joined us for the weekend to help with the SRS Hoops Camp, gave testamonies and shared about their lives with Jesus. The teens enjoyed having them very much.

We stayed at the “City Church” in Andernach, a former russian pub located just above the casino. On Sunday we joined the church for Sunday service and enjoyed worshipping together with “Sonsaid”, the band who played at our wedding as well.
The inputs and sermon throughout the weekend really touched, challenged and encouraged us. For Manuela it was also great to get to know the players a little better and to be part of the camp.

Danny enjoyed playing pool with Glenn, the next Ronny O’ Sullivan of Northern Ireland.
