Dominican Republic Mission: Feb 2025
In February 2025, we partnered with Southern Heights Presbyterian Church in Lincoln, NE to serve on a mission trip to El Batey, Dominican Republic. Together, we worked hand-in-hand with local community leaders to share Christ’s love in tangible ways—pouring concrete floors for families in need, planting a community garden, supporting a sewing ministry to empower local men and women, and leading a vibrant Vacation Bible School to share the Gospel with children.
This mission was a deeply moving and transformative experience, as we witnessed God’s presence in the resilience, faith, and joy of the community. Through our partnership with Foundation For Peace and our long-term missionary Kristin Hamner, who has faithfully served in the Dominican Republic for nearly 20 years, we were able to extend our support through financial gifts for ongoing community projects.
Serving alongside our Dominican brothers and sisters reminded us of the power of Christian fellowship and the call to be the hands and feet of Jesus. As we left El Batey, our hearts were full—not only from the work accomplished but from the relationships built and the faith deepened.
“Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” — 1 John 3:18
