HiS PRINT Italy - Update 2

I am writing from from The International Sports Coalition (Italy) "Ready, Set, Go Sports Conference" put on by the International Sports Coalition in Italy. Thanks to Roger Wernette, my boss with The Gathering, for allowing me to take advantage of this special offer to come and take part in this special conference. The International Sports Coalition offered this all expense paid trip for me to come and share about HiS PRINT and participate in this historic, first time event in Europe and I am blessed to be a part of it. I have had the opportunity to share about The Gathering of Men and what we do with several missionaries from England, Liverpool and The Netherlands. They love the idea of reaching men in the work place. Who knows Roger and I may be starting an International Gathering lunch series in the near future! Let's see how God works! 

850 years ago a movement began in this valley and in this town, Bobbio Pellice, Italy, the start of the reformation of the church before Luther posted his edict several years later.  For this reason, the organizers of this conference are hosting it here. To start a movement across Europe that uses sports to share the love of Christ! 

237 coaches from 32 countries from the European Union are represented here. I see there are 6 from Croatia and many from Serbia, Hungary, Ukraine and Poland, which are countries HiS PRINT has had the opportunity to go and share. I look forward to meeting as many of them as I can as well as many others, to see how we can help each other. 

The conference started With a bang and I am looking forward to the next three days to meet, share and listen to more people from across Europe as well as gain valuable information in using different sports to share Christ's love! HE DID IT!
