Hi! Just a quick request to keep little Earl in your prayers this week. He has been invited to try out for a tournament baseball team which will be traveling to Cooperstown, NY in July. This is a really big deal for him. If he makes this team, he will be playing at Cooperstown Dreams Park in a week long tournament. He will be inducted to the American Youth Baseball Hall of Fame. He will also receive a Cooperstown Dreams Park ring and lots of other great stuff. This is something only a few kids will get to experience in their lifetime. We are extremely proud of him just being invited. Earl is the only 11 year old that has been invited to try-out (everyone else is 12). He will play in a local tournament beginning tomorrow evening that should run through the weekend. The coach selected him for his pitching and his catching positions. We are cautiously hopeful! Just pray that he plays to the best of his ability (It doesn't feel right asking God to let him make the team). Thanks for keeping him in your prayers!!
