Jorge & Penny our missionaries to Nagua at VBS - Album We are happy to report (and its a little weird) that Tamboril is doing GREAT- without us! The church just celebrated its fourth annual VBS and had 11 young people receive Christ with average attendance’s of 80 each day. We are here in the U.S. on furlough so we could not be there and had been planning and praying for this first activity and God really blessed! They memorized verses, played games, sang and on Sunday morning presented what...

Beautiful services with tremendous choir's and preaching. Amazingly we completed the roof project for the church in Haiti. It hadn’t rained in weeks which allowed us to work non-stop. We had just installed the center vents on the top ridge and were headed down an outside ladder when it began to rain. We just stood out in the rain laughing and having a good time. God’s timing is always perfect. The men from Florence Baptist were key once again. They welded 1,250lb trusses and placed them...

Tiffany gets baptized Album Our Church took services to the beautiful shores of Puerta Plata a few weeks ago. It was a very special day for our family because I got to baptize our daughter Tiffany, along the Malecón. We also added to the Church through baptism Rickideni, Andrea (we had asked for prayer for her in February) and Antonio. All the ladies brought food and the kids had fun playing together afterwards. Tiffany accepted Christ a year ago. We have...

We are anticipating the arrival of our last construction group from Florence, S.C. in Haiti this month. We are going to weld and mount large metal trusses on 24 foot concrete columns. Please be in prayer for everyone’s safety. Hope orphanage has loaned us all kind of tools including a power trowel. This really helped us with the church floor. In addition to this hurdle we have also completed the septic system,...

It takes about 7 hours for our team to drive from Santiago, D.R. into Port au Prince, Haiti, cross the border and get to work. The roads are tough and the border officials are tougher; yet God has abundantly blessed us with grace and health. Once on the ground, we work at a feverish pace, anywhere from 6 - 12 days, only to return, catch up with our ministries, re-supply and repeat it all over again. Neither Pastor Dial, myself, nor our team, ever imagined we would be...

Cesar, Neri & Family, Valentine's day night. Part of our Church’s evangelistic activities include “Family Nights.” Our Church people invite friends and family to enjoy movies or other types of organized fun. On two such nights, we showed christian films from Sherwood pictures and both resulted in people receiving Christ as their personal Savior. In February, we showed “Fireproof”, played several games and had several couples make decisions to improve their marriage. Regina was able to lead Andrea to the Lord and both her and her husband are now saved. A few weeks later, we were able to show ....

“How to connect with your teen” was the theme of our ladies evangelistic activity in Tamboril. Our special speaker, Yaquelin Brito from the Converted to Christ Baptist church in Santo Domingo, did an excellent job challenging everyone. Group Pictionary was the favorite and the funniest game of the night, as the ladies tried to understand exactly what their leader was drawing. Many times with absolutely
