Bienvenidos a todos

We are here in La Romana, Dominican Republic! After connecting with our local missionary, Scott, we piled into a bus and drove along the coast to La Romana where we checked in to our hotel. Our evening was filled with a warm welcome, fantastic food, some impromptu multilingual music-and-puppet jamming, and an inspiring introduction to Pastor Mede (of the Luz Divinia church we are partnering with here), his wonderful wife and our intrepid translators. More details to come tomorrow...

...In the meantime, many thanks to all who have prayed for us, helped us with a variety of resources and logistics, and inspired us to work and serve alongside our brothers and sisters in the body of Christ here in the D.R.!

-Dave Chávez, Music & Worship Minister, on behalf of our entire 18-person-strong D.R. team

Translator, trip assistant, blogger, recent college graduate, and future Emmy-winning filmmaker Gia learned to play music by one of her favorite groups (Twenty One Pilots) with Dave and a touchscreen piano.   At the site of the new church building. The walls you see to the sides are from the adjoining property, also under construction....
