Mission Trip 2014

Our DR Mission Team  just completed its 8^th mission trip to Barahona, Dominican Republic and we couldn’t have done it without YOU!

Your combined response, prayer and financial, was overwhelming this year. We thank you very much, and we thank God for your support.

Trusses up when we left

 

Boards up when North Monroe left

Most of your gifts went to finance the permanent roof structure for the church building. Your support provided for the structural steel (I-beams), hiring three welders, lumber to support the roof panels, metal hangers and metal screws, rental of a crane to set the metal roof trusses, and the roof panels. All materials for the roof have been purchased and were stockpiled for North Monroe to continue to installation.

While our construction team was not able to physically accomplish all that we wanted and the progress was slow to our liking, with two other construction groups coming down to provide labor over the next three weeks, the roof should be completed this summer and they hope to also be able to put in windows and doors. This will for all practical purposes complete the construction phase that Arapaho Road started four years ago. Praise God for your help! Praise God, our Christian friends in Barahona will now have a roof over their heads and can fully use the Temple to grow the church and reach their community for Christ.

Watch this page for more about what we did - coming soon!
