Here is a short video about our weekend with Christian college students in the Czech Republic. It is heartening to see this work of God in a country that has become hard to the things of God.

Can I brag on my kids?
Liz shooting up and over the team from Zurich in the championship game.
This past weekend our kids' basketball teams (ICSB: Intl Christian School of Budapest) traveled to Salzburg, Austria to play in a high school basketball tournament with other intl schools from Vienna, Salzburg, Prague, Bratislava and Zurich.
Both of our teams won the tournament! Both Liz and Ben were named to the all-tournament team (like last weekend's tournament) and this week it was BEN who was named tournament MVP. Also, Liz gave her testimony at a chapel service at the tournament how a season-ending knee injury last year drove her deeper in her faith. Her testimony led to several great gospel conversations with players and coaches.
Whereas we praise God for who He is and what He has done for us at the cross, we also give Him thanks for His many blessings as well. Here are some pics from the weekend:
Ben shows his MVP-winning form as he powers up against Vienna Christian.

Basketball and more basketball
This past weekend was the highlight of the school year for our family. It was our kids' school (ICSB: Intl Christian School of Budapest) annual highschool basketball tournament. Schools from Austria, Hungary and Ukraine played in our tournament.
Would you allow a proud father to boast? Liz (Sr.) team won the championship and she took the honors for the tournament offensive player award as well as was rewarded a spot on the all tournament team. Ben (Jr.), for his explosive offensive performance, was also named to the all tournament team.
This video is Ben's highlight video:

Thanks for sharing our joy with us!
