OT: Tim Tebow doing Tim Tebow type stuff again...

[MtNittany]

Thursday night, the Tim Tebow Foundation sponsored the third annual Night to Shine, which supports a prom night experience for young people 14 and up with special needs.

The global event involves events run by volunteers “in more than 375 host churches in 50 states, 11 different countries on 6 continents and in 28 different denominations,” according to the NFL player turned analyst’s website.

A number of the events were held at churches. The full list of participating churches is here.

The Tim Tebow Foundation contributes more than $3million in financial grants to assist churches in hosting Night to Shine in their communities.

The events feature red-carpet arrivals, dinner, dancing and games. At the end of the evening, each guest is crowned king or queen.

I was waiting for a story about how he laid between the earth and a crashing passenger jet and softened the impact for the jet and everyone walked away.

But can't deny the mans kindness and involvement. He helps people and that's good enough for me.

I'm trying to think of something nicer for someone to do, and I'm drawing a blank.

These kids get ignored a lot and just want to be seen as like everyone else. Really nice program they've started.

Nice post about an event like this to start off THON week.

Tim Tebow is a saint. He will be officially recognized as on by the church during his lifetime.

I'll be doing my own "shines" later tonight, too.

Thank you Tim. We are all called to be the eyes, hands, ears, feet, love and pocket book of Christ. We are blessed to be a blessing. Pass it on.

Tim Tebow is just a fine human being.

Tim Tebow is just a fine human being.

He talks it and walks it. He's a good guy.

That people find the need to make snide remarks says more about them than anything. Tim, may God be with you.

The human fund. Money for people.

Great stuff. I always marvel how these girls even know who he is (was). My daughter would have no clue whatsoever. She would probably think of him as a creeper.

Hope he makes it as a TE. Nothing wrong with rooting for a guy who claims to be a Christian and then lives the faith every day.

I volunteered at a Night to Shine prom event a few years ago. The excitement on the kids faces as we clapped and waved to them when they arrived. Those who were physically able to dance were having so much time on the dance floor. Those in wheelchairs were moved around to the music. It was a memorable night for me to volunteer for it.

Never had any ill will towards Tebow until January 8, 2012. Perhaps after another year or two of his good living and I might be able to forgive him.
