“Our plan” was April, Gods plan prevailed in May!
Botijuela sits 5 minutes just outside Bayahibe, Dominican Republic… where Paradise and Poverty Co-Exist! This is a community of people who need our attention, love & support. Many/Most live with zero electricity, clean (parasite free) water or food for their dinner, day to day. They live in homes with dirt floors and without screens on the windows/doors, and temperatures in the upper 90’s is not uncommon.
Our last trip was this past October. Bridges Abroad was able to serve over 450 people between this community and Haiti Chiquita about 15 minutes away, with the combined efforts of local volunteers, medical staff and pastoral oversight. We were able to provide a food distribution, clean water, medical care, medicine and vitamins to each person that came to our 1st Free Medical Clinic. We would love to be able to follow up again with this same type of love & care and also bring to them so much more; such as Spanish Bibles, Dental Supplies (Toothbrushes & Toothpaste), Shoes & Balls/Dolls for the children. And yet the list of needs is still so much more! One of the biggest concerns we hear from those we serve, is that people come and go but there is no long term relationship or commitment. We would like to show them that we care enough to come back again and again, building a bridge to make that happen. With your devotion & sacrifice this is definitely possible. Please reach out to us if God has placed on your heart a desire to get involved, come with us and volunteer, pray for our mission and give your donation at BridgesAbroad.org to help us plan and provide for the precious people God has placed on our hearts.
Together we may not change the world, but we can change the world for one person, family & community at a time.
All donations are 100% Tax Deductible & go directly to the people we serve.
Come see with your own eyes the hope your giving has on those we encounter & leave your footprint in a part of the world that will forever be impacted by your sacrifice.
God remembers those who sacrifice for the hurting of the world and rewards us much greater than we can give. Trust God to show you just how much He sees you when your heart is faithful to those who could never pay you back! We pray God blesses your giving exceedingly, abundantly, above, and beyond, all you could ever ask, think, or imagine, in Jesus Holy Name!.
