Starting for Home

Today we spent some time on the roof and around the grounds of the Ears to Hear complex in Barahona.  We measured roofs for potential Solar Panels.

We took some photos of our host family as we prepared to head to the capital city of Santo Domingo, DR.

The property has a lot of potential and many short term mission teams will continue to go through the doors to minister to the local communities in Barahona.

On our way to Santo Domingo, we again passed many acres of sugar cane and bananas.  We went through a number of towns and lots of traffic.  Even this wheelchair hitched a ride on the back of a motorbike.

At present we are at the Plaza Yu Hostel in Santo Domingo awaiting the alarm clock at 3:50am to meet downstairs with our luggage for the trip to the airport and the beginning of our journey home.

Gene is still suffering high fever and there is a possibility he has malaria.  He has a doctor appointment first thing Wednesday, and we are hopeful that whatever he has is not long lasting and does not have any long term effects.  We appreciate your prayers for our journey.

We have worked on the YWAM project and the Agricultural Project near Bon Repos.  We have looked at the radio station in Saint Marc, the Mission of Hope project in Carries, discussed the second project site for Mission of Hope, the Solar needs at Dr. Morquette's home, and the potential needs of the Ears to Hear project in Barahona.  So, this trip has had many different facets to it and we will be working on the survey results for weeks to come once we arrive at home.  This is what we do and we certainly thank you for your interest in I-TEC. We will let you know our homeward progress and close out this blog.
