Anyone watch the game on Saturday...what game am I talking about? Only one of the most important football games of University of Texas' season...TX vs OU. Our beloved Lonnie (most of you know who I am talking about) is an avid OU fan. He bleeds OU crimson and cream. He has family in Oklahoma...namely his inlaws, but back in the 70's one of his best friend's got recruited to be a linebacker for OU. Lonnie got to go with this friend on his recruiting trip to Norman and that's when it all changed for Lonnie Smith. He never came back the same...he became a Sooner and a faithful one at that. We have forgiven him and just give him a hard time when things go wrong for the Sooners...like this weekend. The score on Saturday was 45-35...though OU lost Lonnie said himself, and I quote, "It was a great game." Isn't it classy that Lonnie can take such a tremendous loss with grace and gentleness? That's what we love about Lonnie.
When I think about football season winding down, I get really excited. Not because it gives us something else to talk about here at the RightNow Campaign, but because this year, it means that Fusion is right around the corner! November 14 is slowly creeping up and that's awesome! Even more exciting than TX beating OU...this year's most life impacting event is coming to Irving Bible Church. Stuff Master's, can you hear me...the clock is moving fast as we hit mid-October...already!
This week, play "Sponsor a Child"

Well folks, it's been fun reflecting on this past weekends excitement. If you missed the game and need a highlight re-cap, just contact Lonnie...he can fill you in.
Blessings,
