Joe,
I just wanted to send a short message about a great act of sportsmanship and fellowship tonight on the softball field at the Parker Complex in Salisbury. I play for Oak Ridge Baptist Church. We play in the recreational league instead of the church league to be a witness to Christ and testify to his unconditional love for everybody. This gives us the hope of bringing someone to know and have a relationship with Jesus that was previously void. As we were waiting for the 6:30 game to finish, our opponents coach came over and excahnged lineups. Various members of our team introduced ourselves and he shortly left to go back over to the visitors side. A few minutes later, the whole visiting team started to walk over to our side. They came over to pray WITH us before the game. The best part is they asked us. This was truly a great act of fellowship by the Sherwood team. Sherwood has some great players representing them in Salisbury and it is truly a breath of fresh air from a society that is so negative. Once again a huge thumbs up to Sherwood and their ballplayers.
God Bless,
Mark
