George Whitefield was a very powerful evangelist in the 1700’s and worked closely with John and Charles Wesley. His ministry brought many people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. He preached very often on John 3:3 where Jesus said, “Except a man be born-again, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.” When he was on his death bed, one of his final statements was, “I go to my everlasting rest. My sun has risen, shone, and is setting – nay, it is about to rise and shine forever. I have not lived in vain. And though I could live to preach Christ a thousand years, I die to be with Him, which is far better.”

The MCC Rebels played for the Section 3A title on Friday afternoon in Marshall. The Rebels had a rematch with the Tracy Milroy Balaton Panthers. The two teams played earlier this season and the Rebels picked up the win in Tracy 33- 22. The two teams would play a much more defensive minded game than the first meeting. The weather played a huge factor in the game with the winds blowing down the middle of the field at 20-25 mph with gusts over 35 mph. The strong winds limited offensive play calling in one direction and it played a huge factor in special teams. The Panthers search for revenge would come up short Friday as the Rebels undefeated season would continue.
