God paved the way for smooth travels for our mission team of 17, who traveled to the Dominican Republic today. I think all of us would agree that the day came off without a hitch.  Flights were all on time, turbulence was kept to a minimum and our luggage all arrived as scheduled.  God is so good!!!

Sorting through a large amount of donated fabrics.  We needed to distribute the fabrics between several suitcases as to not exceed the 50 pound limit per suitcase.  Mission accomplished with (a little bit of) room to spare.

Just some of the donated fabric that is going to the women and children of the Dominican Republic.

Tyler's future is so bright he has to wear shades.

Praise to God and God alone that we made it to our destination with safe travels and  excited hearts.  We will wake up early in the morning and dive right into Vacation Bible School at  Iglesia Bautista Central.  We are excited to get going and see what amazing plans God has ready for us.

Thank you all for your prayers as we do all we can to honor God, while we are serving Him in the Dominican Republic.
