A Word About Faith at Pro Basketball's Biggest Stage

For you hoops fans who are watching the NBA playoffs, I pass along this message I received from Steve and Arlene DeBardelaben who are ministers with Athletes in Action in South Florida:

DeBARDELABEN UPDATE June, 2013   Steve & Arlene Thank you for all you do for us!  Be certain that your prayers are essential.   Should you desire to contribute financially to our ministry, that is deeply appreciated.   You can give online or send a check. Make your check to  CRU  (Campus Crusade for Christ) Do enclose a note with our name & account: Steve & Arlene DeBardelaben  #0014402 Mail to: CRU PO Box 628222 Orlando, FL 32862-8222 Greetings! THE HEAT IS ON! No doubt you are watching the countdown to the championship of the NBA.  Tonight is Game 7 of the Eastern Conference play-offs... the HEAT vs PACERS! We provide chapel services for both teams one hour before Tip-off...yes, players from both Teams attend! At the same time Arlene provides chapel for the Heat dancers in their locker room.  All are eager for our short stories and the laminated Scripture cards we pass out at the games.  One side is a quote and the other side has scripture.  Here's tonight's card...   Faith is to believe  what we do not see --- The Reward of this faith  is to see what we believe!   St. Augustine of Hippo GOD exists and he   Rewards those who  sincerely seek him.    Pray for us!
