Today was a day of rest. We started with a light breakfast and headed of to Santo Domingo for church. It was a small congregation of about 150 people. As the lucky visitors, we were given seats in the first few rows. I'm sure for each of us, it was an interesting experience as the congregation sang in Spanish and we tried to sing along (sometimes in Spanish and sometimes in English). It was pretty cool listening to fellow believers worship in a different language. Jeff introduced the coaches of the team and described how we use baseball to gain an opportunity to build relationships and share the gospel. Next, George gave a brief message followed by a longer, energy packed message by the local pastor. At the end of the service, it was back to SCORE for lunch.
Tomorrow, we have another game and will visit a different orphanage in the area. Continue to pray for our health and safety as we finish out the trip.

Rich, I think I may need to hire you as vacation photographer! Great shots of the boys. Love seeing them enjoying some rest and fun on the beach! We are counting down the days ~ can't wait to see all of you!
