Rep. Dominicana round 2 (Campamento)
Am telling you this year's Camp was WAY better than last year! We were blessed with a better camp site, more accessible for Leslie who is in a wheelchair and much prettier and clean! There were many things that had improved this year compared to last year. I will be listing them along with pics!
1. This year we made changes on how to present our bible stories to the kids. Last few year they would use interpreters and the actors would either voice or sign. Julie and I had worked very hard to make changes by using sign language ONLY no interpreters allowed! We had all staffs who knows sign language to preform, even some part does not require signs we still use our staffs!
2. Last few years, teachers and mothers who works at the school would cook our meals for us. This year the camp had their own cooker, which was much better, even the food were delicious!! That way the teachers can take educational develop workshop with Julie in the morning to learn more about Deaf Education. Also be able to interact with kids throughout the day!
3. The campground was PREFECT! There were fresh mangoes and bananas trees EVERYWHERE! Plus they had more fun playgrounds to play on, baseketball court, and even a zipline! The dorms were much better than last year, this year we didn't have to get mosquito nets for our windows. Lastly, it was beautiful campground!
4. We have more fun activities set up throughout the day. We had swimming, sports, drama, craft, nail polish, science, and group discussion classes. Kids loved those activities, even during free time hang around the campground!

I return back to America overwhelmed with rich experiences from being back in Republic Dominicana for the 2nd time. Each year has really improved my relationship with the lord and how i want to live my life! I can't explain in words how blessed I am to be able to service the Lord through this ministry!
Praying the Lord will give me another opportunity to return next year for camp 2014!! <><
