Friday morning march 8, 7:05 am I’m at the front of the score complex reflecting upon the day yesterday. We started out with a half day clinic at La Cruz. This town felt less evangelized than the other towns — less people claimed to be Christians and in a half day clinic we had a ...
Tuesday, march 5 11:09 pm Today we went to do a clinic in…well..honestly i’m not sure. When we got to the church we set up quickly and collected together to pray and sing before the clinic began. Crowds of people waited outside to recieve medical attention. Running the evangelism station has been interesting. Dominicans will ...
Monday march 4 6:30 am “I wait for The Lord, my soul does wait, and in His Word do I hope”- psalm 130:5 We have our first clinic today and I must admit that I’m a bit nervous. These verses are calming to me–god forgives and does His work through His Word. I’m just left ...
Sunday march 3, 6:35 am At 6:00 this morning the rooster outside our window wakes me up. Even at this early hour I marvel at a rooster in this urban environment. But that seems to be the DR; old and new thrown together. Fuse boxes reside under make shift tin roofs. Large factories stand next ...
Saturday March 2, 8:20 am Today we’ll be working on a project in a village. I fully expect the work to be hot and hard; testing my resolve to bring glory to Christ in my attitude. This morning, I was able to meditate a bit on the latter portions of John 15. Jesus works bring ...
Friday, march 1 5:46 am We’re about to leave for Atlanta and eventually on to Santa Domingo. (Actually, that could be way wrong. I’m lost in airports. My goal here is just to follow the crowd and not get lost. It will be miraculous if I actually end up in the DR.) There is an ...
At the beginning of March, I had the opportunity to go to the Dominican Republic with 32 other people; some for our church, others from other churches and some from Cedarville University. I have to admit, I had been on short term missions trips before and been fairly disappointed; I had an expectation that short ...
I grew up knowing who God was, went to church all my life and was baptized when I was 11 but I was just going through the motions. I wanted to change the way I looked and the German Baptist church did that for me. I looked like a believer on the outside but on ...
About a year ago I was starting to look more into God’s word. The more I looked, the more I realized I am a big sinner! Without Christ, I am filthy! I would go to hell forever if Jesus was not King of my life. I do not want to go to hell. I do ...
When I was five years old my mother passed away and during this time people would tell me that she was in a better place and that I would see her again someday. Everybody would tell me that she was in a place called heaven. This event caused me to ask questions about this place, ...
