Goal
Grade 12 - Timothy Christian Community Group: Dominican Republic Project Fundraiser:
The Grade 12 - Timothy Christian Community Group hopes to travel to southern Dominican Republic the Lord willing in March, 2023 to work alongside our international partner, Carlos Pimentel to engage in a variety of community development projects in the Juan Thomas Community.
Hungry For Life’s local partner aims to support the poorest of the poor in these rural Haitian and Dominican communities.
The Juan Thomas community developed itself spiritually and physically through the work of the MacMillan family. who started their ministry 35 years ago. The ministry runs a school with more than 500 students, an university that will be opened soon, a church congregation with a Spanish and Haitian Creole Ministry, a medical clinic, and they serve the community through many small initiatives.
The group has a goal to raise $45,000 to assist in a variety of community development projects in the southern region of Dominican Republic. These funds will to go towards the construction of a house for the Haitian pastor Pierre and his family and the ongoing support of a women's hygiene program.
Pastor Pierre, his wife Lilliana, and their five children moved from Haiti to Juan Thomas in 2019 after the Lord called them to enter the ministry to serve the Haitians in the community. Only a few months ago they found out that Lilliana is pregnant and they are expecting triplets. They currently live in a two bedroom suite and with the expected expanding of their family the place will be too small for them. The church community wants to bless the pastor's family with this new house.
100% of funds raised will go directly to the project!
