Stepping up to the Plate

You know sometimes I get really tired of all of the bad press that Christians seem to get. I know there are times when we bring it on ourselves, but I've realized that a lot of what people think about us is just assumption. There are a lot of us out there who are real, caring, genuine people.

Last week my mom and Abby went to a benefit concert for a man who has been recently diagnosed with colon cancer. His family is relatively young (a set of twins and a 2 yr old). He has been through all of the stuff like the surgery and all, but there was someone ( I don't know who) that felt the need to show some encouragement. So, they got together all of these great singing groups and personalities to raise some money for this family. By the end of the evening, a great night of entertainment was had by all, and over $10,000 dollars in donations were given. O yeah, I forgot to say this....the admission to the concert was suppose to be diapers and they were given so many that they covered most of the stage at the Cowan Civic Center in Lebanon!

I just wanted to say thanks to all of those Christians who stepped up to the plate to help someone out in their time of need!
