My Story…

Keeping it going another year.

An honor and privilege to continue investing in these kids, and serving these families in the Northside. This is not just baseball, this is life change for many. Baseball is the healthy environment that shows we care about this community to provide opportunity where it may not exist otherwise, but the real life change happens when they begin a relationship with Jesus Christ. It is our desire for everyone to know the saving power in Him, and the joy and peace that overflow from a life rooted and grounded in His truth, that never changes.

If you've ever been around this organization at all, you know you can't go too long without hearing the message of the gospel, or feeling the movement of the Holy Spirit if you are open to receiving, or even seeing prayers answered visibly and undeniably before our eyes, whether you believe it or not.

I thank God for this organization and praise Him for the work done here. Back to it for another season, we got more work to do.

"Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” - Matthew 9:37-38


Getting some more miles in this year to keep costs covered and keep this mission going. But I know it's the Lord who ultimately provides, so if you have been moved by the mission of this organization, or encouraged by this message and the work happening, or feel any tug of the Spirit reading this, please consider giving what you are able and excited to give. There is no minimum amount, every dollar matters.


Asking for support in prayer and/or in donations. 

Donations will accepted through end of May.

Baseball continues through June.

The mission does not stop.

All support is appreciated! Thank you!
