“Put your hands in the sky, Oh Yeah!” 
“We like to move it move it!”
“Tell the world that Jesus lives!”
Here are just a few of the lyrics from some of the songs surely still playing in the heads of tons of area youngsters (as well as volunteers) who attended the Amelia Church of Christ Beyond the Gold Sports Camp at Batavia Township Park last week.
ACC took a chance on a completely new concept this summer by introducing the community to a totally free Sports Camp instead of the traditional Vacation Bible School. The results were enormous as we were blessed with more than double our usual VBS turnout.
About 200 children signed up for the unique opportunity to both learn a sport and soak up plenty of God-honoring lessons about being a good sport. Each night saw kids having a blast on the field while learning the importance of teamwork, perseverance, respect, sacrifice and strategy.
Sports included soccer, flag football, cheerleading and Sports of All Sorts (ultimate Frisbee, kickball, wiffle ball and more).
Special thanks to our many volunteers, led by ACC Children's Minister Melanie Presta ; our special guests, WKRC Sports Reporter Tara Pachmayer and the UC Bearcat mascot; Cahall Bros. for use of their equipment; and a huge thanks to Batavia Township for use of the park.
We can’t wait to do it all again next year, so stay tuned.

About 200 children are taking part in the Amelia Church of Christ Beyond the Gold Sports Camp this week at the Batavia Township Park. Things got rolling on Monday for the June 22-26 camp (sorry registration is closed) where kids are learning and playing all types of sports including soccer, cheerleading, flag football, ultimate Frisbee, kickball and more.
In between sports sessions, ACC volunteers are huddling up with small groups of kids all across the park to teach invaluable God-honoring lessons about the value of being a good sport on and off the field.
Others are taking the stage to lead the children with dramas, singing and, of course, plenty of dancing.
Please continue to pray for all the children, our volunteers and the success of this awesome outreach event.

For three straight weeks beginning Sunday, June 7, the Amelia Church of Christ will host the guru of Biblical finance. Dave Ramsey will be delivering the message at ACC via video June 7, 14 and 21.
It is no secret that worries about the economy are dominating the news headlines every day. Ramsey will give us a radically different and thoroughly Biblical approach regarding our money. You don't want to miss it.
