Trinidad – Fishing for People

Sometimes people say, “The days of miracles are over.” But my life has been full of miracles!
The miracle of my birth: I was born in India to a Christian family of 13. At the hospital the doctors told my mother, “We have done our best. Only God can save your life.” My mother answered, “I told Jesus that if He saves my life I will dedicate this child to be a missionary.” The Lord heard her prayer; she lived and so did I. Today I am a missionary because of her prayers and tears.

William Carey – Missionary to India

William Carey lived in England long, long ago, before the father of your father’s father was born. While still young, he asked some ministers of his church about taking the Gospel to people in other countries. One minister told him, “Young man, sit down. When God pleases to convert the heathen world, He will do it without your help or mine.” William knew that was wrong. He was convinced that Christians must take God’s Word to every nation. Years later he said, “Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God”. And he did!

Ten year-old David is somehow keeping his mind on his cotton mill job and at the same time learning Latin from a book propped up on the spinning Jenny machine. The year is 1823. David’s family is very poor, so David has to work to help out. His parents taught him to read. He has never been to school, but that doesn’t keep him from learning all that he can, especially about nature and science. He loves to explore the countryside around his village of Blantyre, Scotland, on Sunday afternoons; his only time off.

What do you think Mayelhine from the Dominican Republic, Claudia from Mexico City and Daniel from Honduras have in common? All three speak Spanish, but that isn’t all.

Jesus and Baseball

Baseball is called America’s national pastime, but it’s also the favorite pastime of kids in the Dominican Republic. Boys in the Dominican grow up doing two things: going to school and playing baseball. There is no little league baseball like in America, but kids form neighborhood leagues and you can see them playing the sport on just about every street corner. Many of those boys dream of playing in the Major Leagues when they grow up.
