Headed to Bean Town

I, along with a few other people from my church, are leaving tomorrow morning for Boston. We will be there for the next week, helping a local church minister to the community. We will be helping set up some community events for the locals.

Be praying for the people of Boston, that we will be a true example of Christ to them. Also pray for our group, that we will bond and be united together for the common goal of glorifying our Lord. Finally for safety in all our travels and during the week.

(Sidenote) On Friday night, a few of us are going to a the Red Sox v. St. Louis Cardinals game at Fenway! Being a huge baseball fan, this has been a dream of mine for a while. Also, we will hopefully get to see a lot of sites around the city. (Maybe a NBA championship parade, if the Celtics win the title!)

I will try to post on here throughout the week, and will take some pictures.

A Shift to the Sports World- Shout-Out to Chipper

I haven't talked much about sports on this blog, which is kind of rare, because I am a pretty big fan.

Anyway, last night, my favorite baseball player, Chipper Jones, became the third switch hitter (hits left and right-handed) to hit 400 homeruns in his career. He went 4-5 last night, and raised his average to .418!!! (and its almost halfway through the season).

The great thing about Chipper is that he has been on the same team (Atlanta Braves) and has played for the same manager (Bobby Cox) his entire major league career. That is extremely rare this day in age. And another reason to appreciate him is that he has never been linked to or accused of using steroids. (which is also rare these days.)

All that being said... Hats off to Chipper Jones!
