KC Chief Bowe Visits Patriot Practice

The CPA Patriots got a surprise visit today from Kansas City Chiefs' wide receiver Dwayne Bowe. Bowe arrived at the team's practice as the guys were putting on their pads and preparing to stretch. He stuck around for well over an hour, answering questions, posing for pictures, and discussing the role of family and faith in his life.  The Patriots had the privilege of circling Bowe and praying for him before he left for the evening.

Bowe was a great encouragement to the Patriots as he encouraged them to put the team above themselves. He also stressed the need for God's Word to be central in their lives.

Bowe was raised by his grandmother and aunt and now has a charitable foundation which assists families in similar situations. He spoke fondly of his grandmother and aunt who have been a constant source of encouragement and have consistently pointed him to the Scriptures as his source of inspiration and truth.

Bowe is a third-year pro out of  Louisiana State University (LSU), where he was a standout wideout for the Tigers. He played on LSU's  2003 National Championship team and was a first round pick of the Chiefs in 2007. In yesterday's win over the Washington Redskins, Bowe caught six passes for 109 yards.

Following are some photos taken of Bowe and various Patriots at today's practice.
