| Update from Santo DomingoI am now in a break between groups and I would
like to let y'all know how things are going. Group 2 was great. The
work of God was evident in their lives this week. We were able to build
a chapel for a church on the East side of the island about three hours
away. We also did ministry in a village nearby called Circadillo. This
is a small village who only got water when TIME put a well in there a
few years ago. They pump water out once a week and carry it to their
homes. The church there is growing and it was awesome to get to work
with them some.
I have a huge prayer request. The orphanage that
we visit often here lost a child this past week. The mother brought it
there knowing it was about to die, but did not tell Jackie and Gernando
(the parents of the orphanage) that. The child died a few days ago.
This is a hard time for that family. It is the first child they have
lost. Please just lift them up in prayer. They are awesome servants of
God who work week after week for the kingdom, pray that they do no
become disheartened. Our next group is a group of adults with whom we
will be doing back yard Bible Clubs. This is a different schedule than
we normally do. I'm excited to work with them. Pray that everything
goes smoothly and that many people may come to meet Christ for the
first time and that many others will fall in love with Him again.

| Why do I fight so hard to hold on to my self-sufficiency? Why don't I just let it go? I realize how small I am and yet I'm scared to let God handle it. I think I'm scared of what He'll do with my life. I mean I know that He's got something far more kingdom-impacting planned for my life than I do. I think I'm scared of what it'll entail. Why do I settle for less? Why do I settle for my plans for my life? Why can't I give it over? Oh sweet Messiah Jesus...help me trust you...help me let go...make me quit my foolish clinging...may I never settle and may I always press on looking toward You.
