I went to a soccer game...
 
Just having fun with you all tonight...
We have been trying to help young boys that sniff glue, do drugs and other things by getting them together and some of our men playing soccer with them...even though it is a muddy mess I walked through the mud on a road a car could not even get on...to muddy...to get to the field to watch them play...

Most of them boys have been coming to church because some of our brothers love them enough to play soccer with them...Some of those boys mothers have come to say tell us how happy they are that we are taking time out to help their children.

It's almost funnier when Frank Caliendo says phenomenal when he is doing his Rom impersonation. The stations in Houston play a commercial where Caliendo is doing endorsements as Rome. It is "Hilarious" (said like Rome)

That's why they can beat the rest of the world on a good pitch...It's like a walk in the park after playing like that as children.

This boy in red shorts was giving his folks LOTS of trouble..they came to me last week and thanked us and said he is doing so good...

Most young boys in villages like we live in become bandits because there are no jobs...thus they have nothing to do except get into trouble.

When we were on lunch break (from construction) in Costa Rica, all of us Americans would flop down on the ground after eating and rest our weary bones. All of the Costa Ricans would hop up and play soccer in that heat the entire hour. It just amazed us! They finally got a few of our guys out there with them by the end of the week. The nationals REALLY love soccer, or "football" as they call it.

Sister Alvear 06-24-2008 09:16 PM

Re: I went to a soccer game...
 
The favorite game here in Brazil. The Brazilians do not seem to like American football at all.

Yes, Brother Tim I did. I have always liked Christian. I knew him before he ever married...My heart bleds for him.

Maybe we need more soccer talk around here. I haven't seen so many people agree about one thing in quite a few posts. :hug3
