How is everyone? Josh and I are doing pretty well here in Santo Domingo! Last week both of us got a little sick, but this week so far we doing just fine! Yesterday was a very special day in the life of this church, IBSJ. There was a missionary and his whole family that came and visited. This man was named Mr. Carl Key, and he has had an enormous influence over this church and it's school for the past thirty years. In the evening, he preached an excellent sermon -- in english-- exhorting the church to maintain the centrality of God in their worship services as well in their personal lives.
Josh and I had the great pleasure to fellowship with Claudia's parents and sister on Sunday afternoon. It was awonderful time. Also, this morning and afternoon I spent working at a children's camp doing art classes with Laura and two other girls from the church. It was a lot of fun-- although quite hectic! The children were full of energy and ethusiamsm to create various arts and crafts. Tomorrow, we are going to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. It is about an hour and half away. Should be nice!
I have to go now, because Dona Magandy and I are going to visit one of her friends who is very sick with cancer, but I will update again soon! Both Josh and I have enjoyed very much getting to know the people here and learning about this Dominican culture. :-) love you guys!
