​THE CRISIS AND NEED IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
There is a huge Haitian refugee crisis.  In 2013, the Dominican Republic stripped away citizenship from descendants of people who were deemed to be in the country illegally dating back to 1929.   This ruling, in effect, made 200,000 people stateless by removing their citizenship, refusing to issue them birth certificates and identity documents, thus denationalizing them and creating what has been justifiably termed the “Western Hemisphere’s worst refugee crisis.”  They are not Haitians, but they are not Dominicans as well.   These are people without a home, or a national identity.  Many work in the sugar cane fields, but because they have no work documents, receive very little pay and live in squalor conditions.  With no opportunity for education or employment, they find themselves in a desperate situation.

HOW WE SERVE

We lead and serve with a local team to serve and make disciples in several impoverished Haitian refugee communities in Santiago, Dominican Republic.  Together we offer courses in carpentry, technology and English and provide other services in the hopes of helping equip and provide marketable skills that will help young men and woman support their families and continue their education while knowing Jesus.  
We also have an emphasis on discipleship, which has led to the birth of six churches among the Dominican and Haitian communities, as well as multiple small discipleship groups that meet throughout the week.

OUR CALLING
Our family has been committed to the calling that wherever we go, we are to not only proclaim the gospel of the kingdom, but demonstrate the gospel of the kingdom.  By stepping into the educational crisis and the Haitian refugee crisis, our prayer is that the Dominican Republic would see and experience the love of Christ through us and give us opportunities to speak truth and love about what Jesus offers.
