YWAM hockey team
by Matthew Marshall

Matthew Marshall would like to thank Jesus to the Nations for their generous financial support of his YWAM (Youth with a Mission) hockey mission trip.
Matt first picked up a YWAM Hockey brochure at the Halifax J2N conference in 2005. The dream was born and in September 2007 Matt headed to Vancouver, B.C. as the goaltender for the YWAM hockey team. Over the next three months Matt attended YWAM’s Discipleship Training School with the rest of the team and students from all over the world. In late December the hockey team headed off to Russia to begin two months of outreach there. Besides hockey camps for kids, they visited orphanages, schools, universities and churches, thus fulfilling their vision of seeing hockey coaches and players come alive for Christ and bringing God’s transforming power to rinks around the world.
Thanks again, J2N.
