Thank you to Pastor DeLong of First Methodist Church in Pikeville for taking time to speak with our team today. Pastor DeLong challenged us from Colossians 3:23: “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.” Football is part of the calling God has placed on our lives. How we practice, prepare, compete, and serve matters. We do it all for the Lord. #GoBears #UPike #BearNation #BearBall #BearRaid
