Wade's testimony:
"Hello, my name is Wade Rowdon and I played in the Big leagues for the Reds, Cubs and Orioles as well as two years in Japan. I would like to offer some comments on the Sycamore Church Baseball Camp that takes place in November.
It is one of my favorite events to do as I have participated for more than a decade. It is not often that events like this are done out of a sincere heart for the community. Baseball and the gospel of Jesus Christ have always been a fantastic combination. The camps are very instructive and offer children of all backgrounds in the Savannah area a chance to learn the game of baseball for free. More importantly, is the Sycamore Church's concern for the souls of the children and those who attend. This is where my joy comes from, as I am given the opportunity to share what Jesus Christ has done for my life.
My life without Christ would have no meaning! But through these camps I am allowed to utilize the game of baseball to bring honor to my Savior, Jesus Christ. For a great time that is fun, instructional, and life changing through the Gospel of Jesus Christ and baseball be a part of the Sycamore Church Baseball Camp."
