Mormons recruit well and sometimes they land sports stars to do their work. The kitsap sun reported a story last week about a baseball star turned mormon missionary. The LDS church is not without athleticism.
The guy reported in the story has given up, for the time being, a promising baseball career in order to pursue the missionary agenda. After playing at Oregon State, the new missionary was on the verge of playing in the professional realm when he decided to go after his religious duty.
Apparently, the baseball talent is happy at his new post. Missionary work, one might imagine, is relatively rewarding. Afterall, the treasure is in heaven.
Perhaps when he is finished, our baseball star might get some divine favor on the ball field.
