Our high school boys’ basketball team is in Newport, WA this week for the BNB Basketball Team Camp—an intensive summer tournament camp where high school teams from across the Northwest compete to sharpen their skills and build teamwork.
But the most meaningful moment didn’t happen on the court. Between games, three of our seniors and a coach from Othello organized an impromptu Bible study that drew over 60 players.
What makes it even more special is that it was completely their idea—they prepared between games and stepped out in faith to lead their peers.
We are incredibly proud of these young men and the teammates who supported them. God is good!
