State #5!!! Nebraska!

We are really enjoying our stay in Lincoln, NE.  Driving through the state was such a peaceful experience too.  There are SO many farms and small towns, that give it a 'home town' feeling, and we also noticed all the rows and rows of corn just beginning to sprout in a deep, dark soil.  :)

We were truly blessed on Sunday, at Heartland Bible Church, by the sweet fellowship and biblical teaching.  They were so thoughtful, even one of the members of the church set up a personal tour of the local university and stadium!  University of Nebraska is a HUGE football school, let alone the town.  During game days, the stadium is the 3rd largest city in the entire state of Nebraska, if that gives you an idea of HOW much these people support this football program! :)

The campus was not massive, but still pretty spread out in the downtown area of Lincoln.  We did a lot of walking that day, but the weather was just beautiful, so it was enjoyable for all. :)

Nebraska's facilities were really nice and updated, and seem to take care of the campus' needs.
The football facilities were just impressive to say the least!  They also have so much offered to other student athletes, including sports medicine, weight rooms, study halls, lounges and indoor practice fields.  They even had white sand from Minnesota sent in for the volleyball team!

They hit the clydesdale horseshoe on their way out to the field before every game, and take it with them for the away games as well for "luck."

Honestly, the whole experience, whether you play football or not, was really inspiring.  It is a wonderful reminder, that what ever you do, give it your ALL.  As unto the Lord.  For His glory.  :)

Thank you so much Jeff and Erin, for a great tour and experience in Lincoln!

Blessings,
