LION (The righteous are as bold as a lion … a lion, mighty among beast who retreats before nothing, Proverbs 28: 1b, 30:30. The Slaton Lions have deep roots: Shannon Adkins (Bradley’s Father) graduated from Slaton High School some years back. Early in life Shannon learned that the righteous are as bold as a lion. They just happen to live at Idalou, TX. where the team mascot is as you might guess ‘WILDCAT’ !
Bradley learned from God many things; including STOP, learn now and enjoy while approaching your goal. Impossible is actually two words, from God I’m Possible!
A person called Mama Bailey by many always gave her support to Bradley however she had cancer and before each treatment she always held a SMALL CROSS in her hand. All too soon she passed from this life so her husband gave Bradley THAT CROSS before he departed for RIO!
This is an awesome Catholic Retreat for Couples and Individuals!
“Celebrating the Year of Mercy” Retreat
Come hear the words of Jesus: “If you knew the gift of God!”
In 2015, Pope Francis declared the Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy. It began on December 8, 2015, and ends on November 20, 2016. The Jubilee will be a time of special graces from God.
The ultimate goal of the Year of Mercy is to help us change our hearts and our lives so that we can become conduits of God’s mercy in everything that we say and do. Come and get a jump start on how to continue to receive God’s Mercy and be merciful. “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.” Matthew 5:7
