Saturday Notes

Hello everyone.....

We had another great day today with the players at La Renca. These players really accepted us and showed they had fun. These players really improved their skills from the first session we had with them. You can tell by the smiles on their faces in the group picture that we made a difference in their lives, even if only for two days.

Paul did our group devotion tonight and it was really good. Paul spoke on "The Armor of God" and read from the Book of Ephesians. Paul talked about spiritual warfare and that he felt that our battle would not take place in Chile but when we got home. Paul talked about the individual battles each of us face in our everyday life and he challenged us to put on the Armor of God and defeat Satan. Good stuff.

Each of us hope you enjoyed our Valentine Day messages and hope you had a great day. We have missed each of you tremendously and we cant wait to see you.

Please continue to pray for us as we have one more day of work to complete. We will be heading back to the National Stadium where we spent our first two days. We will be playing this team in a real game of baseball. Our goal is to spend as much time with the individual players as possible and make sure they leave knowing something about Jesus Christ.

We play the game at 10:00am and then we come back to the dorms to shower and pack our stuff. We will go to get something to eat and waste some time before we head to the airport. I think our flight leaves Santiago around 11:00 pm. I do not think any of us will have any problems sleeping on the plane. We fly to Dallas Texas and then connect to Charlotte. I think we arrive around 3:00pm.

I am not sure if I will be able to update the site again until I get home. I have hundreds of pictures and could not post them all. It is my hope that this site was beneficial to each of you and allowed you to get an idea of what we were doing here.

Thank you for praying and supporting us. Your prayer support is definitely being felt and we are being protected because of it. Please pray for our day tomorrow and our time with the players. Please pray for our health as there are several members not feeling well. Please pray for our safe flight to Dallas and to Charlotte. Please pray that lives were changed from this trip and that the missionaries will be flooded with work because of our efforts.

We love you and will see you real soon.

Andrew
