Yesterday, we arrived a the Church on Warren Avenue (Lee Street Memorial Baptist) at 8:30 AM. We decided to purchase a lawn mower, which allowed us to cut the grass at the South Baltimore Recreation Center on their ball field. The city cuts the grass infrequently. The center director seemed amazed that we would do such a thing. We decided to leave the mower with the Church on Warren Avenue.
The kids had a blast playing with us. There were at least 55 kids and staff. Mike Chatham gave a devotion to the group and he explained the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. At the end of the camp, we passed out t-shirts and Bibles. The kids seemed so appreciative.
After we loaded all our supplies on the vans, a few staff members walked to the vans in order to get a Bible. They were not in the room when we distributed the scriptures.
In the afternoon, we traveled to Washington, DC. We were able to view the Changing of the Guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery. We also gave members in the group an opportunity to view the Vietnam Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, and the White House. We concluded the day by going to the new Washington Nationals Baseball Stadium for a game between the Nationals and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
We had a long, but productive day.
