Hats off to Giles County High School and Bobcat coaches

[Wavotiger10]

Despite all the controversy about prayer in school and before games GCHS allowed a FCA-based event tonight and approximately 45-50 teens and young adults committed to God. Kudos to bobcats coach for supporting one of there players who had rough time and spoke. They were there for him. That's what theses men are here for. Yes we wanna win ball games but ultimately they are here for the boys on and off the fields. They help our boys build character and class. GCHS were great role models tonight. More schools should take this action and support PRAYER and CHRISTIAN leadership because ultimately that's what life is about. Good job coaches. #ProCHRIST

It sounds like a good thing

 

We been doing a lot of praying down here in Giles Co lately..

It's a tradition we've had for quite a few years now. GCHS athletes and coaches, as well as Martin Methodist College athletes and coaches are involved. It's a great thing.

It was an amazing experience. I talked to the head coach and his staff and they were super guys.

 Coach Smith is a great guy.  Always enjoy speaking with him.

Well said, Wavo. Good thread!

I have a speech impediment and unlike many many people he and one of the other coach (all of them was great but head coach and the other coach) treated me like I was a regular human being and not like I am special. Idk who the other coach was but he seemed very interested when I talked about McConnell. He said they were good friends. They were great either way and the way that they stuck around after practice to support one of there players brought me to tears. Giles County has indeed a great classy coaching staff.

Now this is my challenge to everybody. We need to fight the people against prayers. We need to come together as Christians and push the others out. We need to make not only High School football but all High School sports back into a Christian based activity. We can not let "them" do this. Last night was a blessing to many people and I think we can do this State wide if we put our minds to it. #ProCHRIST!
