Hey Dad, just a little update on what we are doing down here. First week was East Hill Church of Christ from York, Nebraska. During this week had community day, VBS days, went to the dump and hospital in Puerto Plata and had some serious work days. In one work day, we planted 100 palm trees and planted some plants making an entrance into Rio San Juan. We also are in the process of making a sidewalk in front of the hospital in Rio San Juan that will go beside the palm trees that we planted. It was an awesome experience because not only did we work with the group from York, but we work side-by-side with other Dominicans that came to help us. As we planted these trees next to a busy highway, the natives would slow down and stare at what we were doing for their town, and many would show their appreciation as they drove by. Planting 100 palm trees in one day, was an exhausting experience but well worth it to see the look on the faces of the Dominicans. There are so many other stories I could share, but will save for another e-mail because I am limited with the time. However, I am so blessed to be down here! Miss and love everyone back home!
