A Brief Look at Chris’s Service with Freedom International Ministries

Thank you Global Health Collaborations on supporting me in serving for another amazing week in Dominican Republic doing the Lord’s bidding. It's always amazing to see how much the Lord has blessed the ministry taking place down in the DR.
We started our work here 7 years ago, when there were no facilities and only thirty kids in pre-kindergarten class kneeling on the floor to do school work off of church benches. Today there are four hundred and seventeen children ranging from pre-k3 all the way to the original thirty kids now in 6th grade- ALL being discipled in a school building that the Lord sent us down to begin.
This year our team spent time building housing for the missionary families, working in the school with the children, and wiring electricity for a maintenance garage.
The goal of this ministry is to use this school as a tool of discipleship for the local children. It is humbling and amazing that the Lord allows me to be a small part of that, even if it is through something I consider small- doing electrical work. In short, we do it all for the glory of God!
Sincerely, Chris
