Today during our end of the season team meeting 13 of our players rededicated their life to the Lord and 2 got saved. I tell them all the time, “yes I want to Win Championships but more important is their salvation.” Isaiah 55:8-9
One of our Seniors had been speaking with one of my assistants last week about Salvation. Today he gave his life to Christ! It is so much more than a Game! It’s not all about winning Titles. Let’s focus on winning Souls for Christ first and let winning games be a byproduct.🙏🏽⚡️🏀
What an amazing journey this season has been. It did not come without its share of adversity and perseverance. Thank you to all that have been supportive over the course of the season. In addition, the support we received during the Championship game was awesome. God is so Good!
We are really going to miss seeing these six seniors everyday!! Nevertheless, we are confident they will all go on to do great things. God's got them. Congrats on 2X Region Championship!! Now on to the next Goal.
