The Dallas Baptist University Patriot Athletic Department has launched the Global Sports Mission Initiative to allow DBU student-athletes the opportunity to share the love of Christ, while using their God-given athletics talents and gifts to minister and spread the Word of God abroad. The Global Sports Mission Initiative was created as a vision by DBU Executive Vice President, Dr. Blair Blackburn, Dean of Spiritual Life, Jay Harley, and Director of Athletics, Ryan Erwin and has included trips to Guatemala, Peru, Dominican Republic, South Korea, and England, with plans for more trips in the near future.
“The Patriot Athletic Global Sports Mission Initiative was created to allow our student-athletes the opportunity to experience other cultures by living and serving as ‘Champions for Christ’ abroad,” stated Ryan Erwin, DBU Director of Athletics. “We have a special group of student-athletes here at DBU, who are willing to give up part of their vacations, pay their own way, and travel around the globe to serve the Lord. These trips will forever change the people who were ministered to, as well as the DBU staff and students who were fortunate enough to express the love of Christ to so many others."
