What a way to end the year!

It's amazing to think how fast time passes these days as we have come to a conclusion to the 2008 season in softball. Congratulations are in order for each division champion, and each division Most Inspiration Player. What has begun in the beginning of June closes ironically on the same day that the Olympics closed out in Beijing. It was a tough fought season for every team participating which each team securing at least 1 victory, all in all it was a very successful time of fellowship and people getting to know each other better. I know for myself at the very least, I had tons of fun being able to meet new people from different churches from different divisions and just being able to chat sports with them. Seeing so many people at the year of the end BBQ really brought a smile to my face. Being able the be the Emcee and just seeing the joy of people coming together to share a meal together.

Special props goes out to Danny Yee of Cornerstone Trinity Baptist church for leading prayer, and to our guest speaker Jerry Mann from Sunset Ministries for leading an amazing message. On behalf of the CCU Softball Committee, we thank each and every one of you for making this league so wonderful and successful. It is you that makes this league run smoothly, we're just here for logistical reasons. I hope to see each and every one of you back on the field in 2009! With so many different churchs, so many different individuals, this is the only league I can think of that has such unity. No matter what sport, may it be Softball, Basketball, Volleyball, or Golf, we all come together in one family.

As 2008 rapidly comes to a close, I have a word of encouragement. Remember to Live it Loud where ever you are. For most of us it's time to get back into reality with the bitter truth that there wont be any softball for a year. It's time to get back to our 9-5 jobs trying to make a living. For others, it may be time to go back to school, to gain knowledge in acquiring a good education. So take this chance to go out and make new friends, spread the gospel. wear those amazing CCU shirts and sweaters with pride. Be outgoing and friendly, who knows maybe you'll have the chance to share Christ with someone and making new friends along the way. Until next year, this is your webmaster signing off...
