Tweet: bit.ly/1aCgnHT | FB: on.fb.me/1bB7GLP What would you do if Jeremy Lin surprised you with a game of pickup basketball? In September, Jubilee Project had the honor of meeting José, a remarkable young man who overcame the struggles of growing up in one of the most dangerous districts in San Francisco. This is a story of an underdog who found strength, hope and joy in an unlikely place—in his pain and suffering. Through basketball and faith in God, José learns to embrace the journey he has been on, just as his role model Jeremy Lin has done in his own incredible circumstances in the NBA. | WRITE US | Through his struggle and pain, Jose found hope, joy, and strength.
