Day Four Hundred and Sixty-Eight

The Boys of Christmas


Our numbers in Jupiter are slowly growing. At this time last year, Adam and I knew of maybe 3 guys here for winter workouts and rehab. We were one of the only couples around and definitely the only married one. In just a year's time, we've now got three (yes, three!) married baseball couples, two dating couples, and a few more singles to add to the mix! And last night, we all got together to celebrate the Christmas season! What a wonderful change! We enjoyed yet another festive evening with some really neat people and look forward to hanging out more before spring training rolls around. 
Adam's been working out daily with most of these guys (the bearded guy in the red zip-up isn't a ball player, but actually the bassist for the group New Found Glory) and is beginning to form some fun friendships. But better than that, the Lord is using him in some really neat ways. We've got a bit of a different story, and it's been a joy seeing Adam's light shine when he tells some of it. He's shared the Gospel with a few of them and we're just excited to see where things go!
