Yesterday, I asked that you pray for health and safety for the team as we finished out the trip. I'm sure you prayed, but God had another plan for us. Four of the boys (Josh, Fleming, Bryson and Andrew Clingan) were severely dehydrated and required two litres of IV fluids. Fortunately, God provided a doctor here at SCORE that was able to look at the boys and treat them. Now that the IV is done, they are feel (and looking) much, much better. The doctor recommended (and the coaches have agreed) that we won't do anything tomorrow (except rest and drink, drink, drink). While checking them out, he also found that Josh and Fleming also have ear infections and are now on antibiotics to clear that up.
On to the lighter highlights for the day ... we played our 5th (and last) game this morning and won with Jon pitching a complete game. After lunch back at SCORE, the healthy part of the team headed out on a mission to help out SCORE. A shipment of 200,000 meals had just arrived and SCORE was given about an hours notice that it had cleared the port and would be showing up at their storage facility. The team helped unload 5 palates of food.
After dinner, they team is relaxing in front of the TV watching baseball. Oh, and drinking, drinking, drinking water. Please pray that our light schedule the rest of the trip will be effective in keeping us healthy. Praise God that the SCORE physician was here on site; last week he and his wife were in Costa Rica.

Wow, that's a big AMEN! God is so good to provide what we need when we need it. Glad to hear they're feeling better. It's amazing how quickly that (dehydration) can happen. Be well and rest.
