I am blessed to have a best friend who is a devout Christian. Phyllis is a giver, a very sweet transplanted northerner from Chicaaaago, emphasis on the aaa. Lol.
She called me a few days ago to let me know that CC High's football team did not have a sponsor to feed them their pre game meal on Friday. Someone was scheduled to do so, but backed out for one reason or another. I could hear the wheels churning inside her head as she went through every possible scenario in order to get a sponsor for the meal. I explained to her how much the guys enjoy that time together before the game, eating and fellowshiping together.
Now understand this, Phyllis has no son on this team. She just loves her community and is willing to put in the time and effort to get something done. I am honored to say, she took on the responsibility of the whole meal with her son doing the grilling, and our football team will have that pre-game meal together with delivery! That is my friend Phyl, willing to go the extra mile, behind the scenes, and not expecting even a thank you.
So, when you see Phyllis this week, tell her Dale gave her a shout out on the blog. Oh, and thank her for giving to her community and setting a great example for the rest of us.
GO SAINTS!!
