Well the much awaited Granny Smack Down is over and the “smack down” was not on the Grannies!  I was a little concerned going into this game that we might (would) lose, after all the Grannies play together twice a week and our staff has played basketball together once (last Tuesday’s practice) in the 3 years that I have been with Lighthouse.  However, our primary mission was not to beat the Grannies… our primary mission was to raise funds for our youth’s Challenge trip and to provide great (if not humiliating) entertainment for our audience.  That being said, the mission was accomplished.  We had a great turn out and raised a large amount of money to help fund the Challenge trip, and we enjoyed watching the antics of Pastor Craig (a wannabe Granny) and Loree (fight to the finish) Veith!  Thanks to everyone who came out to support us and to those of you who donated to the cause.  It really was a great event!
