An Historic Day

Today was an historic day in the Anasco family, Daniel attended his first (of many I am sure) major league baseball game. And like Eric and Faith, his first baseball game was at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. We have been Orioles fans for years. I know they have been bottom dwellers in the American League East for several years in a row; however, you have to be true to your team.

Unfortunately, they lost to the Blue Jays--ugh a Canadian team! And why is a Canadian team in the American League--but, I digress.

We still had a picture perfect day at the ballpark, we enjoyed the day with Patty (Chris' sister) and her son Ryan, and other friends. Dan really enjoyed the game once he finally realized that he was watching baseball rather than actually playing in the game.

Enjoying the game with cousin Ryan and friends.

Dan's first major league hotdog, and as most of you know, hotdogs taste the best at a baseball game.

    I'm so jealous! I miss Camden Yards. Did you get any BBQ? I'm excited to go to Target Field sometime this summer.

Can You Change the World from a Desk?

A common refrain heard on cop shows and action movies, "I don't want to be stuck behind a desk, I want to be on the street where the action is!" Can you change the world from a desk? In a single day I (Dave) had meetings "in" the Philippines, Nepal, the Ukraine, Poland, Guyana, AND the United States, all while sitting at my desk. In February we were promoted as the Vice Presidents of Equipp...

Empowering the Next Generation

A big step in becoming a missionary with Go To Nations is the Timothy Internship Program . This is a 10 week boot camp that prepares you for full time missionary service in a foreign country. I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...

Departing

Leaping off the Leadership Development post, I have some somewhat sad news. Chris and the kids will be leaving for the States this Saturday. They leave for Manila on Friday, and then fly onward to the States on Saturday, arriving in Baltimore around midnight (Maryland time) Saturday evening. Why is this sad? My responsibilities with the internship require me to say in Iloilo until the internship is completed. I will be returning to the States March 23. We have never been apart as a family for so long. Honestly I am very much not looking forward to being away from my family. I am not looking at this as a "break" from my kids so I can finally do some "real ministry." I am willing to fulfill my responsibilities here in Iloilo, especially as it involves training future full-time missionaries. However, I am not at all looking forward to being apart from my most favorite people in the world. The reason why Chris needs to leave for the States at this time is beca...
