Greetings Saint of God,
We pray all spiritual blessings on your home and family. We are pleased to announce our endorsement and recommendation of Veronica Freites, founder of Mount of Olive Ministries of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. We encourage you to partner with this precious saint of God who has such a heart to win the lost and disciple the saints into their God ordained destiny of fullness, transformed lives, and eternal purposes.
I have just returned from the Dominican Republic. The current government has done a very good job in cleaning up the streets, much corruption, and in bringing needed improvements to the economy.
What a blessing to visit the church CMM helped plant 5 years ago. Pastors Javier and Jacqueline have shown themselves faithful in shepherding the spiritually hungry believers in the inner city church near the area formerly known as the devil's sewer. We remember well on one of our earlier visits during time at the altar one night after service an 8 year old girl came forward for prayer and asked for prayers for her grandmother. Her grandmother had bitten by a rat and her leg was badly infected. She passed away two days later. Many people in this area told us that other churches ignored them, fearing crime, or from judging them as unworthy.
We are very thankful for what God has done in the life of Pastor Veronica Frietes. We have seen the fruit of her ministry both in the States and in the Dominican Republic. We look forward to hearing more from this anointed leader serving in the Caribbean. We invite you to visit her and to partner with her. Send in your gifts to CMM PO 7705 Charlotte, NC 28241 and designate them for Veronica DR. Team are already visiting her and more will be going in the months ahead. Veronica covets your prayers.
Pastor Veronica Freitas has returned to the DR from the states and has planted two new churches in just six weeks. She has been invited to share a church space with a Messianic Jewish Congregation and will offer services in Santo Domingo in English.
The second church is in an area called Playa Chiquita, near Hatillo, about 45 minutes west of Santo Domingo. After traveling down a gravel road for four miles toward the Caribbean Ocean and going past some very wealthy beachfront homes is an abandoned home where the owner has given permission to have services. There is no electricity, so the services begin every day at 4pm.
In six weeks there have been around 60 salvations. What a delight when the Pastor asked for the choir members to come forward that almost the entire church, men included, come forth to sing and play maraccas, tamborines, and other percussion instruments. Only about 3 people did not come forward and one of those was a nursing mother.
The praise music sounded almost tribal, mixed with a Latino beat. Near here is where many Jews escaped Hitler in the days before WW2. The locals say this area is blessed because the nation welcomed the Jews.
Almost all of the new church members are caretakers, cooks, watchmen, housecleaners, etc. for the wealthy beach front homeowners. The joy of the Lord was so strong in these new believers. Many do not have cars and are unable to travel to the nearest small town, which is over 4 miles away.
The ocean here is blue, like Hawaii, from the absence of algae. The mountains and the palms make this one of the most beautiful places on earth. A life long friend of Pastor Frietas offers her luxury home to the benefit of her ministry. Visit the CMM online photo album to view photos of the new church and the seaside resort home available for friends of CMM to visit. Call the office if you have interest in visiting this area and resting with family, while ministering to the new church nearby.
