Bible for a New Player

Children are delighted to receive their own Bibles and quickly write their names and the baseball position they play on the inside cover.

Ministry Partner: Brazilian Baseball Association

Location: São José dos Campos, Brazil

Brazilian Baseball and Softball Association (ABBS) uses baseball to share the gospel with the children of São José dos Campos, Brazil. Youth from these communities lack access to quality education and community infrastructure and are at high risk of involvement with drugs, crime, and trafficking from a young age.

The director of ABBS came to Christ as a teen through JEAME's prison ministry. After experiencing the transforming power of the gospel, he desired to point other young people to the hope he had found in Christ. ABBS developed out of this desire and has been growing for over 20 years.
