Mission Trip to Dominican Republic with Hands in Service
October 1st to October 8th, 2019
In October, I will be traveling once again with a team of Americans to La Romana, Dominican Republic with Hands in Service to serve the people working in the sugar cane bateys. We will be providing medical clinics for impoverished children and adults. The medical clinics will address physical & spiritual needs. Primary care medicine for acute and chronic illnesses will be treated. As a nurse, this is one of the most rewarding and challenging ways that I get to serve. Evangelism activities with the children share the gospel and the children love all the attention.
In order for Hands in Service to send this team each member has been asked to give and raise funds for the group as a whole. We are each responsible for $2100 to cover the cost of travel, lodging, meals, supplies and medications for the clinics. I have committed to $500 of my own personal funds towards the trip. If you would like to help by being a part of my financial support team, please use the donate button below.
