God in the Bullpen! How else would one describe the One who rescued a major league pitcher? Many professional athletes have experimented with drugs. When I was told by a respected veteran that I would never make it in the major leagues without amphetamines, I trusted him and took them. They gave me a feeling of invincibility, but they hurt my performance. Soon, the “greenies” became a habit, and eventually I washed them down with alcohol. Of course, that became a habit, too. Eventually, addiction led to failed rehabilitation efforts and an automobile accident while driving impaired that nearly took my life. When I reached the lowest point ever, the ultimate relief pitcher, God, came from the bullpen and saved my life. I was later diagnosed with cirrhosis. My liver was incurably damaged by the alcohol. With His help, I am battling this, but only God can know how much time I have left. I want to tell my story to help others avoid the pitfalls that brought me to a time of despair. I also want to tell you that the LORD can help you if you will give your life to Him: and, He will give you eternal life in Heaven.

The history of the Amish and the Anabaptist movement including Evangelical Christianity and other world religions.

At the ninth annual reunion of the Hain family held on September 15, 1940, a committee was appointed to arrange for the printing of the record of the descendants of George and Veronica Hain. The basis of this record was the chapter of the Hain family prepared by Mrs. Frances Hain Swope and printed in the 1935 edition of the History of St. John's (Hain's) Reformed church, which in turn was compiled from the voluminous data gathered by Henry B. Werner.
