The mission trip to the Dominican Republic has been an excellent source of rejuvenation for me as a college baseball coach. Day in and day out I see college students that believe that they are going without things. They are always needing that new cell phone, that new style of clothes, that new pair of sunglasses, that new baseball bat, or the newest glove. In November, we will be joining a group of 170 men and women that have 2 things in common: A love for baseball, and a passion to serve the Lord Jesus Christ. You will get to see young men who also have a love for baseball. However, these young men are not like the college students that I spoke of before. Instead of wanting all the new styles that are popular, these young men are worried about where their next meal will come from. They are worried about whether they will have shelter for the night. It is a totally different atmosphere. It is a totally different world. After hearing of such poverty and deficiency how can this be a source of rejuvenation for me? The reason is Jesus Christ! These young men are so hungry for a Savior! For their entire life the image of their Savior has been men like David Ortiz, Manny Ramirez, Pedro Martinez, Tony Fernandez. All super star baseball players. This trip gives us an opportunity as believers to spread the good news of a Savior that is far greater than any baseball player. A Savior who can help with a shortage of food. A Savior that can help with lack of shelter. That Savior is Christ and He will change the world! Come be an influence for the Lord in the Dominican Republic November 17th-21st, 2009.

Emmanuel College Baseball Coach
