Matt worked at Culvers handing out the food one day while he was home. People donated either money to buy soccer balls or a soccer ball to be sent to Iraq. (Crue thought he should be able to take one home- he's so selfish!) There were 140 balls donated, and Matt has been able to hand quite a few out so far. He said it's so amazing to see how excited the kids are to get these soccer balls. He said that a couple days ago, he almost started a riot, and the soldiers had to get back in their vehicles and lock the doors so that the kids wouldn't get in and take more balls! They have so little, and this is such a great way to give them just a little bit of fun in such a dark place! Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this great event!

That's totally awesome! I love it! I'll have to tell John about that. I think the kids just hound him for his pen and glasses, what would they do if he passed out soccer balls!!?
