Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic
Short-term, Global Mission Details
The Purpose: Our goal is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus and His love to the families and children who live in the neighborhoods served by the ministry of Makarios International.
The Work: We partner with Makarios International to support the ministry of local Haitians and Dominicans, promote long-term engagement in poverty alleviation and missions, and educate, encourage and bless local missionary staff. Particularly, our mission team helps to run a week-long sports camp and VBS for the children and youth in the Puerto Plata region, as well as engage in community outreach through various projects and programs. On the mission trip, you will also gain a deeper understanding of the world Makarios is doing in the D.R. and additional ways you can get involved if you feel so inclined to do so (i.e. child sponsorship program, internships, etc.)
