The other thing that happened is that I got to give away our first ever QT Scholarship. As most of you know the scholarship went to a great friend that has had a really rough time this year. Not that you can call loosing his father and having to give up his herd and move his Mom to town rough but add in his past fight with cancer and you can say rough. The good thing is that Billy has kept his head clear and his heart in the right place. He isn't just my friend but my friend in Christ. He knows that will all his looses and struggles God is there with him and Christ is making him stronger all the way. I can only imagine what he is destined to be because when God takes something away he is just opening your hand for something better down the road. I know Billy's time is coming.... And all of you are helping him get there.
Today was pretty cool. First we had our 4-H picnic. At the picnic two special things happened. After we ate they held elections for next years county officers. I was elected to my second term as 4-H County Treasurer. I wanted President but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I am happy with Treasurer though. I am hoping this year will be even better then last year.

Hey everyone. This is RJ's friend billy. I wanted to get on here and thank yall who gave me money the best way I can. It will come in handy with fees and gas money goin places while i'm in college. It's nice to know there's good people such as yall out there willing to help someone they dont even know. I'd also like to formally thank RJ and his family for settin this up for me. I had no idea until they had got all the money in from all of you. They deffinitely r good people and good friends to me, and if you dont have good friends in life, you dont have much. So thank yall again and God bless.

I am so proud of both RJ and Billy. These are two WONDERFUL young men and I'm proud to know them! They are such strong Christians and country boys. I've had a chance the past year to get to know them and I am BLESSED to have that chance! God bless you both and all the other great people out there who helped with this wonderful scholarship program! Comments are closed.
