Live Event Coverage



As the fog filled the arena, the bright lights instantaneously faded to dark. Fans were in an absolute frenzy, endlessly clapping and cheering as the team took the floor. The energy and excitement persuaded everyone to rise to their feet. Gauging from the levels of noise, the undoubtedly talented, world famous Harlem Globetrotters were in the building.

On March 27, inside the Pine Belt arena, located in Toms River N.J., locals and visitors filled the jammed packed sold out arena for one reason, the historically Harlem Globetrotters spectacular show. This was an event for all ages. Judging from the crowd participation, you did not have to be a basketball fan to enjoy yourself. From the beginning to the end, the show was loaded with amazing choreography, trick shots, rim-rattling dunks, electrifying ball handling and humorous audience participation. For more than 91 years, The Harlem Globetrotters have imprinted on fans of all ages and walks of life, Last night was no exception.

The star-studded roster consisted of, Moose, Zeus, Big Easy Lofton, Ant Atkinson, Drizzy, Bruton, Big Easy, Firefly, Bull Bullard and Jet – plus female stars Swish and Ace Jackson. There were countless highlights for example; Ant Showman took a women's purse and ran all the way to the top of the bleachers. In addition, after a disagreement over a foul, Zeus and Moose splashed buckets of water on the audience, while attempting to wet one another. The opposing team unleashed their secret weapon, Paul (Tiny)Sturges whom is seven foot eight inches tall. This giant had the kids speechless, some even appeared frightened, clinching onto their laughing parents. Standing eye level with the basketball goal, made it effortless for Tiny to score. Tiny towered over the Globetrotters like a giant cat to a mouse. The kids let off several boos in fear of The Harlem Globetrotters loosing. Surprisingly, they snagged another win, however not before the team’s mascot Big G stole the entire audience. His halftime performance was simply amazing and seemed to be the audience favorite part of the show, based on the repeated chuckles and kids falling to the floor with laughter. Everyone should make time to catch the Globetrotters' 2017 World Tour. It is a show the entire family would enjoy! For information on upcoming tour dates, follow the attached link.

Devotional Message

     At the age of thirteen, I experienced my first heart break, which caused me to slip into a place of great darkness. The culprit was the loss of my father. I can still remember that feeling of loneliness and wondering who's going to give me those amazing piggy back rides and inspirational talks of how I was the most beautiful, brightest and loving princess on the entire planet. I desperately needed someone to talk to because my mother had temporarily checked out. My neighbor observed my digression and intervened handing me a little black Bible. Inside she had underlined the passage which read, "fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10 ESV). This verse literally saved my life. It was in that pivotal moment I excepted, believed and honored Christ as my Lord and Savior. My neighbor became my mentor and introduced that lost thirteen-year-old girl ...
