For those of you who have decided to join me (and others) in praying for the nations, here is December’s update! This month we will be praying for the Dominican Republic, the second country that I will be traveling to during my World Race. I will be in the Dominican Republic during most, if not all, of the month of September.
Here is some information about the Dominican Republic, provided from Operation World:
- it is 2/3 of the island of Hispaniola,
- its HDI Rank is 90 of 182,
- 18 people groups (11% of the population) have been unreached by the Gospel,
- the largest unreached people group are the Japanese of Dominican Republic,
- 94.35% of the population identify as Christian and 9.1% identify as Evangelicals,
- the country generally welcomes foreign ministries, with the most effective ministries combine evangelism with development & education,
- and, fruitful ministries serve DR at risk and disabled children.

God bless,
Angie Moore
