All good things must come to an end...

Load Em Up... Move Em Out!

The Rio de Los Brazos Team aka "Team Awesome"

Well, today was the last day for our baseball / mission camp at Rio de Los Brazos, and I feel like today was a great end to an awesome experience. We began at the field where we had an "altar call" in right field after a brief VBS session. We had 30+ kids come to know Christ at our site, and probably well over 100 from all the different sites. Gods hand was definately at work here in the Dominican Republic. After that, we had a fun time with the kids playing games, and continuing to witness to the older kids.




After that, we loaded up with the kids in busses and headed to a covered Pavillion / Basketball Court called the "Multi Uso." (we actually ran out of gas on the way, which is another funny story). All the different kids from all the different camp sites came to this place for a culminating ceremony. There was live music, and the place was packed with kids (see below). We handed out baseball equipment to all the coaches in the area, and the kids were fed - very crazy, but cool. I had the opportunity to bless a couple kids by giving them hats, as well as a nice glove and set of baseball shoes. The look on the kids face when I gave it to them is one I will never forget... One in paticular, Edgar, a fourteen year old pitcher / centerfielder and absolutely amazing kid was thrilled to recieve my baseball stuff. We exchanged info, and I hope to keep in contact with several people in the D.R. A seed was planted in his heart... will be praying that it will grow!

Got home, and zonked out for a couple of hours, had a great dinner, then we did a little fishing off the back of the resort - no luck- but caught a boat full for christ today!

Here are some pics and more video of our last day of camp...
