July 18 (Monday)
Our day once again started off with devotions and some awesome breakfast by Kim! Then afterwards we split into two teams: Kim and Elisa was one team. Pastor James, Mel and Jerfelis was the other team.
Pastor James, Mel and Jerfelis headed off to La Vid Church in the morning to work on painting the sanctuary. They were joined by Pastor Eduardo from the church.
Kim and Elisa spent the morning doing a special house visit and preparing for Elisa’s Health Talks that she will be leading this week - before they joined the others at the church for a traditional Dominican lunch!
Chicken, rice and beans are often a staple of a Dominican dish nicknamed, “La Bandera.”
After an incredibly good lunch, we headed off together to visit one of the lay leaders in the church and their family. What a beautiful drive that was, heading into the mountains.
Once we arrived at Santo’s house, we were blown away with an incredibly powerful testimony. Hearing how God was working in his life, hearing how God transformed his life challenged us.
We also spent the time to pray over their family - before heading back to the home base.
After dinner, we ended our time in worship together.
