God has really blessed us here in the Dominican Republic! We've been working outreaches like crazy over the past week. Funny story actually, they thought that since we we're a "government" trip we didn't want to do as much outreach work as other short term teams. Lol! After we got that cleared up, we've been doing more work than the average team that comes through here (as it should be). However, all the time we spent in preparation over the first week has enabled us to really excel at our dramas and hip-hop dance, we've performed them all more times than I care to count and God has done great work through our efforts.
-Now for the BIG news:
Since we've arrived here, we have been in prayer for a ministry opportunity that we really wanted to be involved in. And through our prayers, as well as many of your own, the doors have been miraculously opened for us. Which is why I'm both humbled and excited to announce that we will be leaving Santo Domingo at 4am tomorrow to be the first ORU missions team allowed into -Haiti- in over 10 years! Our focus was on "expecting a miracle" and God really came through! We actually received approval from Risk Management for the trip on our day for prayer in the book. :)
We'll be working with an established YWAM clinic directly in front of the national Palace in Port-Au-Prince. At this location we'll be helping with the distribution of food and water to the victims of the earthquakes as well as taking part in the amazing ministry opportunities that exist on a daily basis. Please be in prayer for a move of God in the Haitian people and that we will have our hearts open to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Oh, and for safety and all that stuff as well. ;)
We love you all, pray for you daily, and can't wait to see the work God will continue to do through all your lives over the remainder of your trips.
Dia te Bendiga!
