The teenagers wanted to do something to bring in new teenagers and those who haven&#8217;t been coming lately. They decided to have a ping-pong\u00a0tournament\u00a0with hamburgers as to eat. We sent out Emails and called \u00a0many of the teens to invite them. We started a half an hour early at 6:30 but at 8:00 we still hadn&#8217;t finished the tournament.

There were 42 young people in total with several visiting for the first time in a long time. Many responded to the message and one girl was dealt with about her salvation. In all it was a great time and the Lord really blessed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-500\" title=\"Pingnight\" src=\"http:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight.jpg\" alt=\"Pingnight\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-501\" title=\"Pingnight2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight2.jpg\" alt=\"Pingnight2\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.operationbolivia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/pingnight2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.feedburner.com\/fb\/a\/emailverifySubmit?feedId=592963\">Subscribe to Operation Bolivia by Email<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I praise the Lord for a special night in our youth group tonight.
