Medical Mission Dominican Republic/Haiti 2009

A few weeks ago Pastor Daniel approached me about doing a medical mission trip. Initially the trip was going to be a bit more than I could handle due to scheduling and finances and such. However, after some further research and some negotiations Daniel was able to assist me in making a decision. Pastor Daniel has organized a medical mission trip to the Dominican Republic and Haiti. On Saturday, March 21, 2009 approimately 12 people, including my self, will travel to Santo Domino in the Dominican Republic. We will spend a few days in the D.R. focusing mainly on medical missionary work. It is unknown exactly what we will be tasked with while we are there, but I kind of like the idea of not knowing. I am excited that we will be attending a church service in the D.R. on Sunday morning. I don’t even know what to think about that yet! Mid week we will be traveling to Haiti where we will continue our medical mission. We will fly into Port-au-Prince and will stay at the Hotel Montana. We will be providing medical mission for Value Haiti. I am excited about seeing Value Baptist Church. Our church family helped build a new church in Value Haiti and I can NOT wait to see it!
I am still processing all of the information that I have taken in over the past few days, but I am eager to see what God has going on in these places. I have a lot of preparation to do on my end, but I can not wait! There will be more to come as I prepare myself mentally and spiritually for the trip I am about to partake in.
