Day 6
Yesterday we went to the handicap orphanage in the Santo Domingo. The handicap orphange is probably one of the hardest things I have done. This being my second year it seemed a little easier, because i knew what to expect. The team did a awesome job at loving on the kids and not treating them distant.
You know love is a universal language, because when you would just say their names and rub their arms they would just smile. Their were three hydrosyphilis babies this year and a lot of mentally challenged kids. We just love on the kids.
After the handicapped orphanage we went to the straw market to shop for souvenirs. After shopping we went to eat at the Hard Rock Cafe since it was only about a mile from the orphanage. This was really neat because the Hard Rock Cafe is right behind the Christopher Columbus church which is the oldest church standing in the Americas it was built in 1503. The capitol is beautiful there is also a light house in honor of Columbus there it was so beautiful.
After the lunch we came back to kick off the kids program that Nate and them are doing through the summer. They are looking at Ephesians and talking about being soilders for Christ. We did the songs from vbs and shared the gospel through the bracelets we had some that raised their hand to recieve Christ. Last night we ate at the famous El Sueno's it was awesome but one really awesome story is on the way back to score Dana and Marguerite saw two little kids with their VBS stuff and doing the guitar motion and singing the songs we taught them. The kids did not know that their were seen by Dana and them. That just shows that we made a difference in these kids lives. Give God the Glory.
Today we come home we leave score at 1:00. This morning we are going to a church to worship with Dominicans how cool.
love you all
