Hey Sandlotters , My family hopes this finds each of yall healthy and well and we wish a very Merry Christmas to everyone.

I have to share some things with yall that have been blessings towards my family and are weighing so heavy on my heart . Most of yall know that I have not been feeling very well for the past six months and we are in the process of finding out what it going on . First off my heart is fine and as long as the motor is good we can fix the rest over time . In going through this experience I have had many days of prayer and questioning God of I am really doing what I should be doing for Him and also my family . Every single time I am answered with " YES " in a form of a blessing and it is AWESOME .

The One Project and Sandlot Baseball is stronger than ever and will continue to grow thanks to all of the families involved . There are always times of doubt and these past six months has been stronger than ever due to making sure that my family is taken care of and the sacrifices Shelby and the kids have to make to do what we need to do for our community . Through many family discussions, prayer and support of you all we are building strength and hope and love .

There are many stories I can share and hope to very soon but one has been created over the last month and came to a climax this evening . Insurance has been very tough to figure out for my family along with being able to afford and we have tried several avenues and always seemed to hit a major road block . We have looked online ( most confusing ) been downtown to speak with agencies and have not been successful . Hope is something that can lift souls and allow people to see the good in so many bad situations . Hope is what we needed today and it came in the form of one of our Sandlot mothers  , Christina Sherrill.

The One project is founded on what can we do with at least one gift from God , whether you are a mechanic, plumber, preacher, coach, doctor . etc.. This time it came in a health care advisor.

Christina came to our house after answering an email of HELP from me and within 2 hours led us through the confusion ( for me ) in the most comforting way and we now have health insurance that we can afford for the next year . This one step is going to allow us to keep pressing on and I wish I could explain how much tension and relief is spread through our household.

I have seen the horror post on facebook and the internet from so many people about health insurance  and the questions everyone has had and it has bothered me for months . To have someone so genuine come into our house and make us feel so at ease was absolutely incredible . To even go one step further , the plan we chose pays her zero commission because of recent events with the carrier and yet she still led us to our best option.

We have found someone using at least one gift from God to help others and it goes so much further than trying to sell a policy. If it was just that I would never be telling yall about it.

If you or anyone you know is having the same struggles my family has been having I hope you contact me or Christina and allow her to see what she can do to give you HOPE .
