Frank Bellizzi
I am a Christian, a son and a brother, a husband and father, an elder in the Body of Christ, an American historian, a Bible student, a college instructor, and a music fan. I also like movies, and would like eventually to become a real film buff. My ultimate professional goal is to win the World Series as the lead-off batter and 2nd baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals.
