Meio University Game


On the 24th on Saturday, we will be playing the University of Meio from Nago. The game will be held at Kadena Stadium starting at 2 o'clock. Please come out if you have some time and would like to check out a Japanese style baseball game.

Please continue to pray for all the baseball players throughout Japan. Everywhere you look, there is always a kid wearing a uniform, either walking to practice, or walking home from practice. Baseball is huge in Japan. It's especially big here in Okinawa.

Pray that they may know Jesus through baseball!!

God bless.

Ehime Mandarin Pirates Coaching Staff


It's not everyday that you get the opportunity to show your stuff to a professional baseball coaching staff. This is a picture of the head coach, Hoshino-san(former player and one of the coaches for the Rakuten Golden Eagles), pitching coach(former Yakult Swallows pitcher), and the head of the players development.

It was cool just meeting these guys and having the opportunity to just be there. This was part of Rika and my trip to visit family in Ehime. We were able to get in contact with them and ask them for a chance to workout with them.

God bless,
