Game On!
Faith, Fun & Friendly Competition is happening Saturday, June 28 from 3–5 PM, and you’re officially invited to get back in the game! Calling all past, present, and future Upward stars—it’s time to lace up, show up, and bring that team spirit as we dribble into an afternoon packed with high-energy games, water balloon fun, team challenges, and faith-filled moments that remind us we’re always on Team Jesus. Whether you’re a slam-dunk champ or a sideline snack MVP, this day is for YOU! We’ll have silly relays, sponge races, Minute-to-Win-It missions, and short “timeout testimonies” where we pause the play and pump up the faith. No need to travel far—your home court is right here, and we’re saving you a spot on the roster. Come laugh, connect, compete, and be encouraged as we build community, strengthen faith, and remind everyone that in God’s game plan, no one sits the bench. Get ready to pray hard, play hard, and cool off with some splashy surprises.
Game On—let’s go!
