Some people go to church. We shoot. It's the same type of get-together. To us, this is our sport. This is what we like to do.

Those of us who are soldiers day in and day out, have been kept from table because the church is in conflict and our kids are still dying.

If we can get enough church people involved, we can alleviate the bad stuff. It takes all of us working together.

Toward the end of the trip, a Wisconsin church group asked us if we could send some people on an emergency basis to help finish off the field reconstruction. That night the town teams were scheduled to play their first games since the hurricane and the rebuilding effort was running behind.

Some buddies from church went out playing and they asked me to come.

Many black members remained in the church.
