I pray you and yours are doing well. I am doing awesome, thanks to my awesome Father in Heaven. I just finished watching the Opening Ceremony for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. When it comes to sports, my favorite sports events include the Superbowl, World Cup (women's and men's), and of course the Olympics. I have very little understanding of football, but I enjoy watching and eating with friends and family on Superbowl night. Soccer being my favorite sport to watch and my extensive knowledge of this sport, I am the most active watching the games during World Cup season. With respect to Olympics, I see it as the biggest unifier of nations around the world. Although I'm a pageant veteran, I have come to accept that the Olympics is the largest gathering of the world in one location and great opportunity to be national ambassadors. I love watching several Olympic games, and I love that there's such a variety of events to watch at any time of the day; gymnastics, soccer, wrestling, track and field, and swimming are few of my favorites to watch. Watching the Opening Ceremony last night was such a joy, and I was elated to cheer my countries - Sierra Leone and United States! Photos below from the ceremony were taken by me at the convenience of being in my living room. Brazil did a great job showcasing its history, culture, as well as ecological concerns. In this post, I'll be highlighting the athletes representing my nation of birth, SIERRA LEONE.

Have you given your heart to God? Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal savior? If you die today, will you make it to Heaven? If no or you are unsure, do not waste any more time and receive salvation now.
