"This is what we are about.
We plant the seeds that one day will grow.
We water seeds already planted,
knowing that they hold future promise.
We lay foundations that will need further development.
We provide yeast that produces far beyond our capabilities."
Excerpt from The Prayer of Archbishop Oscar Romero (1917-1980)

As 24 members of our church family frantically pack and prepare for the upcoming week in the DR, we pray that each year the seeds we plant will grow and the foundations we lay will be built upon!  Today, suitcases and supplies were divvied up among our team and the generosity of others was overwhelming.  Clothing, toys, toothbrushes, toothpaste, diapers, vitamins, school workbooks, baseball gloves, bats, soccer balls and more were donated and will make their way to the people of the DR.  Please pray for our team's safety, strength and success in serving Him!
