Favorite Memory of TMU
Philip loved spending time with his teammates on the baseball field. He says, “It wasn’t just the time spent with the boys and Monte out on the diamond, but everything that came along with it. The meals, road trips, service projects, devotions, shared success, and brutal failure gave me brothers for life.” Brianne’s favorite memories came from being part of the women’s basketball team. She says, “The hours spent with my incredible teammates and playing under Coach (Ken) Sugarman’s leadership changed the trajectory of my life. The spiritual growth that occurred is a testament to the quality of people that I was blessed to be in fellowship with for four years.”
