hi all
obsevation number one of the world race, check all of your comfort and securities at the door.  it has been an intense few days here in the dominican republic.   the squad has shared some pretty meaningful moments together already and our teams are slowly becoming our family.  we definitly stick out here, it is not everyday that the people here see a pack of 50 american kids walking around thier streets with water bottles and backpacks on.  i feel so blessed to have this oportunity and i can already feel god changing me for the better.  i am going to keep this short because i only have a little time here in the internet center but i just wanted to let everyone know that your prayers are working and we need them.  we start our ministry on saturday and we will be leaving this town for the rest of our time here and going to another village 2 hours away.  i am so excited to start working for the lord and doing what i came here to do.  thank you again for your thoughts prayers and support. 
love,

anna
