Wipeout...




Mario Higgins from the Denver Broncos came to motivate






The coaches...


Group shot!
So, this week our church hosted a 1st-6th grade football skills camp at night, because we live in Texas.  I am thankful that Rook has the opportunity to be around Godly leaders, just like his dad.  We have high school coaches that are active members of our church and they use their skills and passion to serve the Lord and our community.  Rook has burned through a case of Gatorade in 3 days...Texas.  He has learned a lot and I appreciate Mario Higgins, a believer who plays for the Denver Broncos, coming and sharing his testimony with the boys.  Phil.1:12 "But I want you to know, brethren,that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel"  Paul wrote this while he had been chained to 4,380 Roman guards.  He witnessed to all of them while Caesar paid for the guards to watch over Paul.  It was a true chain reaction.  Mario Higgins talked about his circumstances growing up were not ideal, but that God has used those circumstances in his life to further the gospel, having now played on the NFL for 9 years as a linebacker.
