First week of school is over

So....week one of Colegio Makarios is over. Wow. It is crazy to think that I am a PE teacher. Whats crazier is that I teach it in English to kids that only know Spanish and Creole.



I love it here. This is the toughest thing I have ever done before. I dont have my friends, family, or Texas food here. Amidst all the chaos, God is restoring my soul (Psalm 23). I have placed the Lord as the Shepherd of my life. He takes me to green pastures and tranquil waters. Here, in the Dominican Republic, I am becoming more at peace. Amazing.

For those that are not on facebook.....Please check out my pics on the link below:

Continue to pray for me that I can develop more relationships in the community so that I can share Christ's love. Along with this also pray that my spanish will improve. Finally, pray that my continued financial support will come in...so far i have half of the 12 thousand raised.

Keep checking for updates...love yall
