Safe and Sound!

Get everyone to the airport at 4 a.m. . . check

Travel to the DR without losing anyone on the way. . .check

Arrive at the Makarios house where we will stay for most of our trip. . .check

Enjoy a good time of prayer and worship with a beautiful mountain/ocean view. . .check

Well, we're here and everyone has made their way to bed after a long day of travel. There have already been opportunities on our flights to share the reason for our joy in Christ with others and I am excited to see what the Lord has in store for our group as we prepare for tomorrow. We will be spending our day around the new Makarios school working on various projects and spending time with the children that attend classes there.

There will be many stories to follow as the week continues. Please continue to pray for us that we might delight in Christ and have opportunities to tangibly express his greatness to those around us.

Serving for the gospel,
