Report from Dominican Republic: Kids Love Hugs!
Report from Crossroads mission team members currently in the Dominican Republic:
We are having a wonderful time serving the Lord. Every morning we have group devotions while we look out over the beautiful country and see the sunrise! Paul has had an opportunity to lay block in a village for a housing project. In that village Cindy was part of VBS and medical groups. The children love the hugs and love to play ball. (The weather has been comfortable so far!) A group of us went to the Compassion school. Cindy presented the Bible story of the death and resurrection of Jesus. Rachel played her guitar while we sang B‑I‑B‑L‑E and Jesus Loves Me. Victor is the principal for 800 students. He gave us a tour of the school and in each classroom we prayed with the children. He specifically asked for prayer for the older children during their state tests. He has a deep desire for the children to learn. Paul facilitated a group question-and-answer time with some students and adults last night. It is so encouraging to see the young people living their faith out! We love you all and cannot wait to hug!
Cindy and Paul Sereda
