On October 15th, we hosted a baseball clinic for over 150 young boys from Boca Chica, San Pedro de Macoris and Juan Dolio. Brian Doyle (78' Yankees World Series) and Anderson Feliz (Yankees top prospect) did an amazing job teaching the young men the fundamentals of baseball. A lot of jovenes went home with new equipment, more baseball knowledge, and most importantly, the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Before we started the clinic, we gave all the Juan Dolio kids a new glove, batting gloves, and a pair of cleats. This is my garage. Thank you Degooeys and Emerichs!
Members of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church. They came over for the clinic and served. They were truly the hands and feet of Christ. They even took pictures of each Juan Dolio kid and made them a baseball card.
Anderson Feliz, Bill Rose and Brian Doyle did a great job with this clinic. Brian (right) was extremely sick with the flu that day but persevered. He even presented the Gospel to 150 young men that day.
Anderson Feliz (the next Jeter) teaching the fundamentals of fielding.
Brian Doyle and I were both sick that day, so we shared the duties of teaching hitting. I had a blast.
The Johnson Ferry guys went around looking for kids that did not have cleats and provided a pair.
The Gospel was presented in a baseball way. Brian took the kids to each base and used each base as a metaphor for the Gospel. It was awesome.
