Thanks Cougars!!!

Below is an email we just recently received and wanted to share it. We are so touched. What an honor. Luke started reading this email to me as we were shopping for souvenirs in OC. Of course I couldn't make it through without tears. It is just so kind!!! And so very special to us. It has been even harder for me lately, we just miss him so- can't tell you how much this means to us. Much, Much Thanks Cougars and all the best to you in this new season!!!

If you would continue to pray for us, we would so appreciate it. We are doing well yet this is by far the hardest trial we have ever known and we are still deeply grieved. Our Pastors, Care Group, close friends and family are caring for us on a daily basis and seeking to walk with us but we would so petition your prayers for continued strength, comfort and joy. Thanks! Much Love, the Davis

Hi Luke and Kriscinda,
Below is an e-mail that I sent out to Covenant Life School's Men'sVarsity Soccer Team. I hope that you find it encouraging.

Blessings,Bob B.

Good morning Cougars.
If you've worn your new t-shirt this weekend,you undoubtedly have been reminded of the "3 C's" of our program.Character is always a focus and at the varsity level, Competition grows to be a most important aspect of our work together. Community,the last of the C's, might be my favorite because it allows us to build together as a team and impact Covenant Life School and Covenant Life Church.As a Community, we should seek to build up one another and always seek to give honor where it is due. We will be taking a new step this year to give honor to a very special part of our greater community.Many of you may have heard of the Davis family. Some of you may have had Mr. Miller as your Bible teacher several years ago. For those who do not know these dear friends of mine, their story is one of God's faithfulness during times of trial. The Davis' (Luke and Kriscinda)recently lost their son, Micah, after a long battle with a rare form of brain tumor. Micah, though only three years old, has been a source of encouragement to many in our church and around the world.If you have ever seen a picture of the Davis', you would most likely notice Micah's now famous orange Crocs. This year, and in the years to come we will honor the Davis family by issuing a new, orange Captain's band to the player who is characterized by a "joyful tenacity" on the field. The player chosen to wear this will be a warrior on the field while simultaneously exhibiting exemplary sportsmanship.This new symbol of Community will be debuted at our match tomorrow versus Grace Brethren Waldorf.

Blessings,Coach Buchanan
