2009 Dominican Republic Missions Trip (August 15th-20th)
We are excited about our 2009 missions trip for !GNITE. We will be going to the Dominican Republic to support a Christian group called SCORE International. The trip will be from Saturday, August 15th to the Thursday, 20th.
Check out all the details below and pray about joining us as we serve the Lord in another country! Last year's trip was amazing. We had 15 students and 6 leaders. This year we hope to bring another 15 students.
The cost is $799: Pray that God raises up the money. We'll give you support letters to send out. We'll do fundraising as a group and we'll give you other ideas on how to raise money. This is the least expensive missions trip that CCOB offers. The cost covers airfare, food, housing in a nice hotel, transportation and all ministry costs while we are there.
The students served God by:
- Sharing the Gospel in skits
- Loving children in sugarcane villages
- Helping out at a girls orphanage
- Visiting a handicap orphanage
- Handing out tracts in the city

Dominican Republic Missions Trip Update - Day 6
We
had our morning devotions in Ephesians 5 learning to Walk in love, walk
in the light, and walk in wisdom. After breakfast we got into a bus and
headed to church. Josh and Thomas felt sick before the bus ride, but
God ended up healing them and he felt great the rest of the day. Church
was in a poor village (although it was nicer than the sugarcane
villages). The building was great - they had fans running and it didnt
seem hot at all...CLICK HERE FOR PHOTOS.<< MORE >>
Dominican Republic Missions Trip Update - Day 5
Hey
everyone! Day 5 was great. Allie is feeling much better and so is Julia
- praise the Lord. Our missionary guide Wilkins led us in morning
devotions in Ephesians 4 this morning - it was a great time focusing
our hearts. After breakfast we hit the road to head to the La Romana
Girls Orphanage. We found a a man that was selling SugarCane! We've
been looking for this stuff. It looks like corn on the cob and you bite
into it and suck out the sugary juices on the inside - its soooooo
good! We all had a chance to sample it. Good stuff!!! CHECK OUT THE
PHOTOS AND MORE INFO.

Dominican Republic Missions Trip Update - Day 4
This
morning we went to JUMBO (a Walmart) and we bought groceries for
families of the sugarcane village. Praise the Lord we were able to feed
117 families! Last year we fed 17 families - amazing how God has
provided this year for this great blessing. We fed the entire village!

Dominican Republic Missions Trip Update - Day 3
Our
third day was fantastic. It started with morning devotions with Frank
in Ephesians 2 and some worship. After breakfast we headed to Santo
Domingo for our ministry. We passed out Spanish tracts, Spanish
Scripture bracelets, and Spanish Gideon Bibles. We probably passed out
about 100 of those Bibles to people. They were really excited and
received them gladly...CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS.<< MORE >>
Dominican Republic Missions Trip Update - Day 2
We
had a great day 2 of our missions trip. Our morning devotions started
in Ephesians 1 along with some worshop music in Engligh and in Spanish
(to get ready for our songs in the village). We headed out to our first
sugarcane village after a simple breakfast armed with all of our toys
and donations... << MORE >>
