July 6, 2008 - Andrea Jaeger - Holy Laughter (2007 Encore) Genesis 18:12-15 Those who follow the tennis world closely know the name Andrea Jaeger. In the mid-1980s she was playing number two in the world on the women's pro circuit. That was young Andrea. Following a career- ending injury as a teenager, she engaged in a serious refocus of her life. Today she is an Anglican Dominican sister who devotes everything she is to kids who live with life-threatening diseases. It's quite a life mixing tears, laughter, and a whole lot of fulfillment.
