2007 Lutheran Night at the Braves

Seventeen Baseball Fans traveled from Middle Georgia to 755 Hank Aaron Blvd., in Atlanta to watch the Atlanta Braves play the Houston Astros. The score was 12 runs for the Braves and 3 for the Astros. During the pre-game activities it was announced that Lutheran Night at the Braves and Thrivent Financial had raised some 53,000.00 dollars for Lutheran Services of Georgia.
The fact that we all observed Atlanta's newest Brave, Mark Teixeria play his first game in a Braves uniform will be the memory that we all will cherish. Mark went on to thrill the crowd by hitting a Home Run and also enhancing his Run's Batted In numbers by a total of three. We also also watched with delight as another New Brave, Octavio Dotel worked a scoreless ninth inning for the Braves.
A delightful evening to be sure. Two members of the group were absent from this photo. Of course the photographer was one.
