My First Week in Israel

Hey Guys,

    I know its been awhile since my last blog, but let me update you on the latest happenings in my life. Most of you know that I've been focusing on getting back to the love of my life which is basketball, and I'm proud to announce that its happened. I'm currently playing on a team called Hapoel Tel Aviv located in Ariel, Israel. This is a great opportunity and experience for me and I'm very thankful that the Lord has blessed me with this second chance. It has been 6 years since I last played professional basketball and to be given this opportunity of doing it all over again I give praise to the Lord Almighty.
    My first week in Israel has been great. So far I've experienced eating new foods, that I don't eat when I'm home in the States. It's not as bad as I thought. The people here are very nice and very accepting even though we have different religious preferences. I've been invited to 2 dinners for the Jewish Shabbat, which I must say was very good. We've played 2 games in which we went 1-1. I've also had the chance to experience the nightlife and the dining of the country. There are quite a few  people whom speak English here, so communication is not a bad barrier. 
     All in all, I'm really enjoying myself with this wonderful experience and opportunity that I've been blessed with. I'm so very thankful and humble for this chance. I feel I'm back to my normal self again, doing what it is I love to do. Blessings and I will check back in next week.
