We pray that you are well. We would like to take a minute to thank you
for your much appreciated support and prayers.
Truly words can not express our
gratitude. There is so much to be done
but we are going forward step by step and that would not be possible if it were
not for you standing along side us.
We have been working diligently on what God has called
us to here in the Dominican
Republic
There are currently 91 children attending the school. The growth has been amazing, just two years
ago we had an enrolment of 35 children. God
is good!

The increase in enrolment is due to the success of our
sponsorship program. The program has
opened doors to many children in our community and neighbouring
communities. This year we moved to a new
location and are quickly outgrowing it. We already have new students
registering for the next school year. As
we continue to grow we recognize the urgent necessity to buy and build.
We know that we are changing lives and impacting the
future! We invite you to be part of
S.O.S., Supporting Our Students. Any donation would be greatly appreciated and
we thank you in advance for helping us finish this school year strong.
Women of Destiny (Mujeres de Destino)
In January the women’s ministry began to visit the
public hospitals in the city of
This has been a life changing experience for the women
and for the church. We are called to be light and salt, what a privilege it is
to serve God and serve others.
Youth
Today’s youth our leaders of tomorrow?! That is a
statement that may send chills down the spine of many. We have seen a national increase in violent
delinquent acts, drug abuse and teen pregnancy.
We have been praying for the youth and at all costs we understand that
we must invest in the lives of our future! We believe that in spite of what we
see great things are to come from this generation.
And because we choose to believe that God has a plan,
we are experiencing a new excitement among the youth here in Baitoa. Last month 11 youth from our church were
blessed with an all expense paid youth retreat.
The 11 returned refreshed, renewed and ready to serve God with their whole
heart. Since the retreat the Friday
night youth meetings have doubled in attendance!
Be part of the team!
We would love for you to become part of the team and help us impact the
lives of the people of the Dominican
Republic
