“I just picked up my cross 5-16-08 and started following Jesus.  I been reaching out for help... I don't have no family or anyone that I can called on for help... but I am now just realizing how much that God cares and loves me... I really need spiritual help... I am on 24 hour a day lockdown... I like to ask you to pray for me...”

The 7MIT and song, with its biblical teachings, are interspersed throughout the booklet. This completed project will allow kids and their families to effectively connect to the story of Jesus. Parents and teachers are encouraged to request copies for use with kids they know and teach.

More Than Gold sports camps and clinics were established in 1996 to build solid sports skills and strong Christian character.  Basketball was the first sport used for this purpose.  After 12 years, there have been soccer, baseball, wrestling, and all-sports camps/clinics in multiple states, foreign countries, and across North Carolina. More Than Gold is also a Gospel ministry resource for Upward, Junior Prep Stars, Salvation Army, and others conducting sports programs for children and youth.

Gym courts, fields, and black tops are common sites for MTG Sportsreach camps and clinics. Campers (7-14 years old) have attended half-day and full-day camps and clinics at churches, schools, parks, and street corners for the past 12 years. Cross training, Today's Heroes, contests, and team play highlight all camps and clinics sponsored by CEF Ministries of North Carolina.


Campers are expected to listen and follow the 'Today’s Heroes'
