Saying we’re proud to support this organization is an understatement!

Win or lose, sunshine or cold evenings, this team circles up and prays together. Teaching these boys that baseball is more than a game — it’s about faith, character, respect, and brotherhood.

And if you look close, you’ll see the younger sibling standing nearby… Watching. Learning. Taking it all in. 🩵

They’re seeing what it means to support each other, to lead with faith, and to put God first in everything — even baseball.

So thankful for a team that builds more than ballplayers, they’re building young men.

⚾️🙏

If you haven’t been to El Mana in Monroe yet, run don’t walk!! On the way home from church I told the wife I wanted to go by the store to get stuff for fajitas for lunch. All the meat is marinated and chopped up ready to cook!! The folks that work there are AMAZING and it doesn’t hurt that the young lady at the register volunteers at our church and recognized our kids!

I love the smell of BBQ in the morning!!!

Thankfully my wife does too!
