CARTERVILLE, MO.--- "Team Impact" is visiting the Carterville First Baptist Church this weekend. They are strength athletes, and ripping phone books is one of their talents.

They bend frying pans and baseball bats. They are men of faith and they say putting on a show gets them in the door.

"It's hard to get a big crowd to listen. Curiosity brings them in. Once we get them in here we get to share our faith," said Mitch Hodge, Team Impact.

"I do hope they take away anything is possible with them and God," said Darren Wallace, Pastor.

The team will be at the Carterville First Baptist Church on Saturday and Sunday at 7 p.m. each night. The church is located at 200 east Main Street. Show is free to the public.
