Our time in the Dominican Republic has been the most difficult time on the race for me but it has also been my favorite season. I have loved being here and everything that it has brought with it.
I have gotten to discover little things that I am passionate about.
It’s been a season of walking through fire and celebration.
I got to create my own ministry and use my creativity.
I have met so many beautiful people that the Lord placed right in front of me.
I have learned to find joy in the little things.
I was blown away by my squads intentionality.
Made new friends and deepened my relationship with old ones.
I have lived next to cows, chickens and even a pregnant goat.
I have visited most doctors offices in a five mile vicinity.
I have learned what it looks like to be taught by the Father.
I have played so many card games!
Stayed up late so many nights laughing until I cried or crying until I laughed.
I reclaimed the joy I thought i lost.
I learned how to fight for myself.
The few times I got to go to ministry and meet the people of the DR. ( they are pretty cool people)
Going to the grocery store has been my favorite adventure!
I got to surprise my squad with going back to ministry.
I was blessed with extra time to choose in to the MOH base staff.
The Dominican Republic will always have a part of my heart and it was such a blessing to spend two months here calling this place home. I will forever treasure all the memories we have made here. So goodbye for now DR. Thanks for changing me.
