Stay at the DR Resort House! And Our Youth's Baseball Needs

Hope all is well with everyone,

Sorry that I have not being keeping in touch as much as I would like to. Summer is almost here and I know many of you are traveling, please see if the Mission field and the Dominican Republic could become your vacation spot. We are experiencing revival in our churches, we are seeing the glory of God manifested in the youth especially. They are coming out of the woodwork into the churches. It is one of the greatest moves of GOD that I have ever witnessed. Some of the youth play baseball and are in dire need of baseball equipment. Pastor David from North Carolina sent lots of equipment last year, which we gave out, but we need a lot more. So if you can get your hands on any sort of baseball equipment, e.g. bats, balls, hats, pants, and T-shirts, we need it. Remember Dominicans make good baseball players, maybe one of this children can be the next David Ortiz!!

One of the kids we gave the hats and balls to asked me: Pastor Veronica, why do people in the States help us get all this equipment if they don't know us? I said because they love you and they want you to know Jesus and be the best you can be. Then he went on to tell me his shoe size!!

Be blessed,
Veronica

Everything God does for you is a gift. And whatever you want from God
is nothing compared to what He's already given you. If you're asking
for a billion dollars, it's nothing compared to a pair of eyes that He
gave you for free.

A Visit with Friends and Special Needs

During a recent trip to the Dominion Republic to visit a friend, Veronica Freites, who is a missionary in a village by the name of Bani, which is a remote village in the country surrounded by majestic mountain ranges. As we traveled through the mountains from village to village, I could see a real hunger for God in the people which made me want to see them to come to know our Lord and Savior. The largest church that I visited in Bani (that I was blessed to take part in ministering to the people ) was so full that some of people had to stand outside .It seemed as the service progressed more and more people arrived and was walking in from the village. I remember the looks on the little girl's faces as I handed out new dress's that had been donated to the church. I really grew to love the people and it was hard to leave.

In talking with Veronica a few days ago, I found out that one of the supporters for the ministry that had promised to pay $ 256.00 dollars a month for the entire year for the new church and backed out.It breaks my heart to think of all the precious people I met may not having a place to worship. Please pray that there will be supporters to come fourth to fill in the gap. I talked to ,Veronica the day the support was dropped. She was having a crusade and young people was giving their hearts to Christ and finding a whole new purpose for their life's. When I was there a lot of the people that had started attending the new church had given their lives to Christ and some had never even attended church before. The building church is held in in Bani is a large building and at full capacity could carry a lot of other activities that would bring in income for the ministry. By using the building wisely it could not only supply income of the people as a whole but help substance the ministry. The vision that I am able to share as a supporter is to see new projects develop such as a computer school in this building - Veronica needs computer's to be donated. To see the seven sewing machines that was donated put to use as a sewing school - which means we need sewing supplies as well as material to sew to be donated. Another part of the vision is on one floor to open a pre-school to help support the ministry and the people, but in order to do this Veronica has to have people to see the vision and help support the new church and watch the change the lives of the people that I have so learned to love. Veronica also needs a van to be able to carry groups to the Villa and be able to carry large groups back and forth to the airport. I would like for you to pray and ask the Lord to help you see the vision that Veronica and I have as well as many others who share in this ministry. I know I will go back as soon as I can because I have such a burden for the ministry and the precious people I now know as my brothers and sisters in Christ.

If you go and minister to the people with Veronica you will never be the same, part of your heart will stay there and you will always long to go back. I challenge you to go and experience this yourself, take a group from your church, support the ministry and I am sure you will receive the blessing I have received and will love being a blessing to others.
