Alex Ribeiro, the former Brazilian F1 driver, has just written a book translated into English called ‘Power to Win’. It is full of testimonies of God’s work amongst prominent Brazilian athletes, and brings a powerful Gospel message to readers. The book is being given out at the Olympic village at this very moment. This is an amazing opportunity. Because of the massive media attention on sports and sports people, they will be able to spread the Gospel far better than we can. However, the Athletes for Christ team is having problems in getting the book into athletes’ hands. Please pray for obstacles to be removed, for big doors to be opened and for many Olympic athletes to come to Christ. Please continue to pray for protection for the athletes and those involved in running the Games. Please pray for the 'righteous' athletes, those not taking performance enhancing substances, to be the true medal winners.
