    Faith, indeed.

    I once lived down the street from the “other” Grapevine High School (NOT Grapevine Faith, but the local HS), and I can’t ever imagine their football team or supporters doing anything like this.

    Very, very cool. It helps stave off the other negativity that sometimes surrounds the season.

    Working in a prison as a counselor, I know there are a lot of forgotten people out there. We look at people with a record, and forget that they are God’s children. Nice to see that some can look past it and make a difference, especially for the lost youth of America.

    Thanks, Julie!

    Wow. I can’t remember the last time something I read online made me cry like this. What a neat story.

    This girl doesn’t cry easily–I made it to the prayer, and succumbed. Thank you, Julie.

    Football? Evangelical Christians? TEXANS? Me, cry?

    Pshaw.

    Yup. Got me, too.

    What a tremendous experience for those kids, and for the people who supported them.
