La Republica Day 1

Posted on Apr 28, 2009

Our first full day is in the books and I emphasize full.  Yesterday afternoon we arrived in Santo Domingo around 2pm then traveled to San Pedro where we had our preliminary meetings.  After a nights rest we ate breakfast and started on a tour of schools, medical clinics, and Churches that did not end until 4pm.  We then checked into our hotel in Santo Domingo and stayed just long enough to clean-up for Dinner with the Bishop of the Dominican Republic.  It is now 10pm and we just got back to our rooms. 

Although the day was very busy it was great to see the energy and enthusiasm of the ministry taking place here.  Visiting the schools were especially my favorite where the children were very receptive of our group. 

I will try and post more tomorrow but I am just too tired tonight.
