Salvation Soccer balls and Baseball Gloves

Last week my Gramma and Grampa came to visit me in Honduras.  They brought some stuff with them.  Two important things they brought were soccer balls that I will explain in a minute and baseball gloves.

The person that sent the soccer balls is one of my friends.  His name is Samuel.  I met him when he came from Oklahoma to visit his grandparents last summer. They live next door to my Gramma. He told me on skype that every Christmas his Grampa Allen and Gramma Kay give him money.  Part of it is to help someone, and the other he can spend.  He decided to do something for me, to help me tell the story of Jesus while I am playing soccer with Hondurans.  He sent two soccer balls and a bunch of little booklets that talk about Salvation.  I want to keep one of the balls to carry around.  I think it will be good because it is so cool looking it will start conversations about Jesus wherever I go.  The other ball I plan take when I go with my dad to a coffee farm and give it to a family there.  I am going to post pictures of this after I do it.  I would now, but I don't have pictures of this.  I think these soccer balls are great.  Samuel is a great person and a good friend.  I want to thank him very much.

Another important thing my Gramma brought was baseball gloves.  My cousin, named Kristopher, sent them.  They are good because they can help with the baseball teams we have already started.  There are always kids that need a left handed glove and we never have enough.  How great is that, that he sent extra left handed gloves!

Thank you very much to these people if you are looking at the blog right now.
