Yes, the Lord had called me to return to Republic Dominican for the 3rd time! The best part of this trip is see how much the kids had grew over the year since last time I saw them (a year ago)!
This year theme was "Armor of God"- Ephesians 6:10-18
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
It was a fun and entrainment theme, the kids loved it! Our drama team did a fantastic job explaining the passage about Armor of God from the bible. It was blessing to see those kids emulate what they had learned during their time at camp!
There's tons of pictures I could share! I will just share the highlight of the camp!

| This year we were able to decorate our camp t-shirt as part of craft activity! We also did bunch other fun crafts too! (Click here to see more!) |
 |
| We have group discussion everyday to review what they learned from the drama and how it's related to the bible. This was my main job at the camp. In addition, Julie and Penny, our amazing American Teacher was able to provide teaching workshops to those teachers who works with those kids at the school! (click here to see more!) |
 |
| We also provided science workshops for the kids to learn different fun stuff! Even had auto class for the boys to learn how to fix basic things. (Click here to see more!) |
 |
| Sports is other main activity we had here at camp. Baseball was popular last year but this year it was basketball and volleyball! (Click here to see more!) |
 |
| During our free-time (in between activities) you will find everyone all over! It was fun to see everyone just chilling, catching up with each-other, and playing different kind of games in the cafe area. (Find more pics here!) |
 |
| At the end of the camp, we were able to help celebrate Ramon and Mira their official wedding ceremony!! |
 |
| What a WONDERFUL missionaries we have this year! We made this camp possible along with Our Father in Heaven!!! All of us are from different States, NE, NY, CT, FL, CA, TX, and the Dominicans! |
I had a WONDERFUL time and experience to return! I will be looking froward to what next year will have in store for this Ministry!!
Side note: I know this post is way OVERDUE- almost a year late, however, around this time of the year I normal will know if i will be going again. It has been a difficult deciding whether if I should go again. I have been praying to the Lord about if I should return, I didn't had this urgent feeling where I want to GO again! It was a bittersweet feeling, HOWEVER, I will continue praying if I can return next year!
This year will be in my PRAYERS and for sure MISS them!!!!!
Especially, I will miss my little sassy friend Liris!
