Bryan Clay




It's pretty cool to be able to say that the greatest athlete in the world goes to our church!  We go to Baseline Community Church in Claremont which is the same church that Bryan Clay and his wife Sarah go to.  Bryan competes in the Decathlon and won the silver medal in Athens in 2004.  I remember it well because it was the first Summer Josh and I were married.  Bryan also went to APU so we heard a lot about him at the time.  This year he won the gold medal in Beijing.  Winning the Decathlon earns you the title of worlds greatest athlete.  That's a pretty sweet title.  Sunday was the first time since the Olympics that Bryan and Sarah were back at church.  They have been traveling the world doing all sorts of fun and exciting things related to the Olympics.  He has been appearing on Television shows and doing commercials too.  At church we had a big Olympic style BBQ with fun little relays for the kids.  Bryan was nice enough to sign autographs and take a few pictures with us.  The girl in the picture with me is a friend of mine, Christina.  Needles to say everyone at church was feeling pretty proud and excited!
