Conference Champs!

Last Thursday night we defeated last year's conference champs, giving us a share of this year's conference championship. It was pretty special for us, especially considering that it was Mark's first championship in all of his years of football (playing in high school, college, and coaching for 15 years).

And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. --Romans 5:2b-5
