- 1. Church retreat at a beautiful area alongside a river and a short walk from a 100+ foot waterfall. We relaxed, played, learned about being stewards of our environment and grew in relationship.
- 2. Pastor Julio with David (showing his musculos)
- 3. Bill & Lucille in Santiago at the Monumento de los heroes de la restauracion. A monument recognizing the heroes that restored independence from Haiti's occupation.
- 4. Bowling (with Jan and Mark (Laurie's parents)) is a rarity in the DR. USD $10 for an hour of unlimited bowling for everyone, shoes included. (Rumors of half price day on Wednesday...shhh)
- 5. Visiting Juan at the Pedro Brand home. Nick's long time friend since they met in a Santiago orphanage. After "aging-out," he was moved to an adult facility. Next time, he said we should bring brownies.
- 6. Lucille (Nick's mom) with the enthusiastic kids from the children's ministry, Pan de Vida (Bread of Life).
- 7. Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want - drawing by Cristal from our church's children's program.
