The trip is coming really soon!

Hello friends!!

We are back! And wanted to update you on our missions trip. We arrived Sunday evening. Words cannot express how great God was with us. Too much to mention. Once again, the citizens, the poor left us speechless with their kindness. Thank you to Fellowship of the Holy Spirit in Califorina for their support, for their generosity. Without them we could not make most of our trips and donate clothing.

Thank you to our staff, Andres abd Martha for their support while I'm away. In getting our 2nd group ready. Thanks to Alla for donating a new tv from target for one of the families. Second to those that went with us and made such a huge effort in paying our way and donating their time and hard earn money. Thank you also to Pastor Chris and Ekklesia Miami for sponsoring our trip, Kevin, Franco, Milton and Martha. Also to Dr. Daisy who lives in Santo Dominigo and who escorted us to our project.

We had 2 groups. The 1st we left last Sunday. The 2nd arrived on Friday. So we made two exhausting trips to our project from the capital (Santo Domingo). We were blessed to have transportation (Honda CRV) to travel to our project site. A local family lend us the vehicle!! When they heard of what we do for their country, they wanted to help. And thus gave us one of their vehicles. For our 2nd trip which was Friday, Kevin blessed us with a rented mini van. ($90. a day! very expensive) We are praying for a donated mini van in Dominican Republic or one we can ship to D.R. We already have a person who works in exporting cars to D.R.

We had so many bags of clothes, that we couldn't have done it without these 2 unexpected blessings! Thus, our trip had minimal expenses. Elimitating more expenses, we were able to stay in our project site with our tent. One of the pictures, you'll see that we took a tent to our donated land. It is here were we plan to build a small cabin or shack for us to stay in and have more visitors. It will measure about 20 feet by 12 feet approx. Made of wood. We are trying to finalize the documentation to be able to build this small home for us, for you to visit and for missionaries to visit and stay.

As we began to build the tent, many children and adults came. Laughing, joking, saying things like "Its prettier then our home" they clapped when they saw we raised a home in 15 minutes... It was a memorable moment as they had never seen a tent before! It really touched my heart... What I personally loved the best is this, they were touched to see us live like them. Staying with them, not just going and dropping off gifts, but living among them.

As many of you know, what sets us apart is that the director, Jorge, actually does all the trips and plans all of the trips to bring awareness of the poverty of these children and children worldwide. We are a hands-on foundation. We are working hard to gain funds for our Colombia trip. Which is a 2 months project. (http://www.nchild.org/childrenincolombia.htm)

The vision of Colombia is to have a soccer field, and an orphanage. To bring children from 1 to 10 to live from all over the country. In our May - July trip of this year we met professional soccer players. I had no idea there was a meaningful purpose behind this. By the way, I will be returning in 2 weeks to Dominican Republic. A local church needs bibles. Thus out of 50, only 1 had a bible and out of those 50 only 15% can read. We are looking for donors, partners to donate cd players with rechargeble batteries.

If you are able to sponsor our D.R. trip in 2 weeks, you can donate online http://www.nchild.org/donation.htm

Until soon!!

Buenos dias!! Como estan??

Primero quiero agradecer a nuestro equipo, Andres y Martha por su apoyo y trabajo de organizar el 2nd groupo cuando ya yo estaba en Republica. Quemos agradecer a la iglesia Ekklesia por patrocinar nuestro viaje. A la iglesia de California Fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

El Pastor Jon y Reina. A los que hicieron un gran esfuerzo para ir, Pastor Chris, Franco, Kevin, Milton y Martha. A las personas que donaron rupa, el televisor - gracias Alla, ella no nos conoce, como muchos que donan.

Fue un viaje que no tenemos palabras. Demaciadas bendiciones, incluyendo un Honda CRV y una mini van. Primera vez que manejo en Republica... llegamos super cansados. Fue un viaje de mucho corre corre. Porque llegaban 2 grupos separados. El pastor Chris de Ekklesia fue con nosotros y fue de gran bendicion. Hicimos una pregunta de cuantos tienen biblia, solo una persona. Y un 10% solo lee espanol. Necesitamos biblias y equipos de sonidos para donar.

Me gustaria saber de ustedes, lo que piensan, sus comentarios, porque nos anima mucho.

We would love to hear from you... To hear what you think, your comments, because this really motivates us. We hope you can take the time and write. We don't hear from 90% of you, so we hope you can write us a little something this time... :)

Hello Friends!

Just a brief note of our upcoming trip, Oct. 3rd through the 8th, to Dominican Republic. Please keep us in your prayers. We will be taking 2 small groups. Among them a pastor. As you know, the need in what we do never ends. There's always a need. We will be taking an oversized tent to stay on the property that was donated to us, thus saving even more on expenses.

Dr. Daisy who lives in D.R. will be receiving us at the airport. She has found locals to lend us bathrooms while we stay these 5 days. We have tons of clothes, and I can't wait to see their faces!! I'll be sure to take pictures and videos.

Also, we have updated the web site. So far, we have also now added a page for Colombia's children. A trip that we are looking for partners to fund. www.nchild.org/childrenincolombia.htm

Our trip scheduled for Colombia is at the end of October, for 2 months.

Updates to follow!!

I watch a program of missionaries called "Travel the Road". About two young missionaries traveling to far away places reaching people. They really encourage me and spark more desire to go to farther places. At the same time, its kind of hard to watch and wait for more help.

Actually, I got some more ideas from them, on filming. Since I do all the filming, pictures while traveling... Soon you'll be able to view some videos and more photos here on the blog! For now here is a map of the Caribbean, see Dominican Republic right in the middle.


















And a closer one of the Dominican Republic















Watching these guys travel to amazing places reminded me of my last trip to Dominican Republic. I slept in a different place then I had before. The last night there, I realized what the noises were that I've been hearing previous nights. Rats!!! Yes... The last night they were crawling over the roof and floors. I didn't think they were the curious types. But here they were crawling around making all kinds of ruckus. I decided to stay with my contact lenses on and full clothing, just in case. And surely enough, around 3am, they made their way closer and closer until they were crawling up my bed!!!

Oh no!!!

Of course, needless to say, I didn't stay there. I went to seek shelter somewhere else!

Lately, while we go deeper into villages that are further away, you see less and less of what most of us take for granted. Simple things like, electricity and bathrooms. In the town we work in, we have rivers, but in the last village we visited, there is no river. So I had to shower in a home-made, outdoor bathroom. That basically means: buckets and cups. Some had soap, and some had towel...

Hi I am Gisela I hope, as you are reading this you are doing well! I wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you! As we try to improve little by little, I now have an email with our foundation and a new blog!

I have been living in a wheel chair for more than half of my life. I have had 24 operations on my leg. That runs from my knee to my hip. I was sexually abused many years ago and I believe my story can impact people. That it can touch the lives of children and teenagers also.

At the same time, I'd like to share the wonderful task we have at hand. And give the opportunity to many here in the US , to be a part of our love, serving the needy, the hungry the children. Talking with Jorge and the board, we, Jorge and I are available to visit your companies, your churches, and share my testimony and our mission. We are excited to meet many of you. The great thing about this is, the funds we receive through these invitations, goes to our foundation. Jorge and myself are available to begin speaking engagements around the country. To gain funds, to be able to travel to Dominican Republic and Colombia for the rest of the year from October through January. To give more of our time. Jorge, has already begun, he had an invitation 2 weeks ago in Miami. If you or your church/organization, of if you have areferrall, please contact us asap. Thank you!

My husband, has just left for the army, it's been difficult for me, but, with all this time on my hands, I thought I could do something constructive for our Children's Outreach. To establish partners, for funding of our mission. I believe it's a great time for us to begin to share more indepth, on a personal level, who we are, and the people behind Nazirite Children's Missions for the great cause God has given us to do.

What motivates me is that, from the invitations, it helps us to gain funds for our Children's Mission . It will allow us to stay in the mission field for longer periods of time and not have to return to the US . It will fund our trips, which cost between $300 to 500 just for plane tickets. Our mission is to be a part of these families, not to go and leave, but, to establish relationships. We are proud to say, they feel comfortable, and trust us because of the time and times we go to spend with them. I have not been able to go, because of my condition and the rough conditions in our project in Dominican Republic, I am hopeful though, but, Jorge has on our behalf.

Although, he's the director/founder, he does all the work. All the traveling and all the delivery of your donations. He has traveled since Aug. 2001, returning, August 05, November 05 with our teenage volunteer Stephanie, in April 06 and July 06 taking with him 35 youth and constructing a small school. We don't only want to impact one country. That is why we traveled to Colombia , which the abuse rate is 70%! Jorge stayed in Colombia for 35 days. Taking clothing, speaking at Rehabilitation Centers to x drug addiction men, visiting inmates in Colombia's Maximum Security Prison. Visiting families in the country. Families in Saboya, Chiquinquira, Tuta, & Tunja. We have videos and pictures of all our trips.

For our main project, which is in Dominican Republic, our goal is to build a Children's Center that will feed, clothe and educate them in computers. Something they have never seen before! It will provide a full working kitchen and bathrooms like the ones we have here. They have never seen one eigher.Through purchasing land and cultivating the land, to produce fruits and vegetables. Through acquiring chickens and cows to provide food. This is how they feed themselves. There are no supermarkets, no drug stores. We are just 1 or 2 hours from the Haitian border. That is why, our site is one of worst possible places in this country of Dominican Republic . If you feel, your church, or organization would like to invite us, please respond to this email.

Our schedule is open, clear, awaiting your call! To read more about our organization, visit us at http://www.nchild.org/

Thank you! Gisela Vargas & the team @ Nazirite Children's Missions.

Our first group trip to our project in Dominican Republic was great!
They painted happy faces on children's hands, made bracelets. The singer of the musical group, Contagious, sang to the children. All the town united, over 500 in all! That is our main mission friends. To make relationships with these families. At times, I have to eat and drink stuff that scares me, but the poor are very sensitive people.

When I first began these missionstrips in 2001, I thought I was blessed, and they weren't . But after returning so many times lately, I can see that its the other way around. The love, the attention, the smiles, the warmth we all receive from them is amazing! The 35 youth had a great time. They all showered together in the river. They took extra money to bless the citizens. And so, I took them to the school I had visited in April which was falling apart. It was scary to even walk in it. But this group donated the new school and in 3 days the old one was demolished and the new one was up and running!



















One thing I learned, as a non profit foundation, we didn't want our heart to become selfish, thinking and only giving to our project in the Dominican Republic. So we decided to visit other countries and help other children, of other cultures. The doors to Colombia opened. A country were 70% of the children are abused emotionally, and physically. We gave 35 days to this country, to its families and children. We got to see a 17 year old beaten up by her uncle. It was one of our most difficult trips, as well as rewarding.

We returned July 2nd, and July 3rd we headed off to our project in D.R. The way we see it, because we gave somewhere else, we received so much in our project. I encourage you today, the saying is true, "its better to give then to receive" help us, by sponsoring our mission trips. Airline tickets, transportation, meals in the mission field. We have close to 300lbs of clothing, but, can't do more then trip bi monthly. Hope you consider helping us monthly.

Thank you for visiting!
