A Trophy for God
My family is very involved in sports, especially volleyball. My parents coach our parish volleyball team. We were so excited when the team won the league and got a trophy. We wanted to celebrate our victory with God. To do this the whole volleyball team participated in Sunday Mass. We all sat together. During the presentation of the gifts the whole team processed down the aisle and presented our trophy as a gift to God.

It was our way of saying thank you to God for the talents, good health, and knowledge God has given us. Without these gifts from God, we would never have won the League.
