Family!
This coming Monday a team from a church in Chicago (one of my favorite cities) will be coming to Dominican Republic, they have asked me to join them to take help into Haiti. A desire I´ve had for a couple of years.

Please, take a couple of seconds to pray Protection and Wisdom over our lives as we travel into a culture that is very dangerous. Living in Dominican Republic we are first to know about Haiti then the world in news. Recently a Dominican military was shot taking help in Haiti and some countries have withdrawn due to the danger. thank you once again for being there for us. We couldn´t do this, or be here without you!

(PS, we are in desparate need of a laptop, we are incomunicated with our families. We received a used one, but, like everything used, it last very little. Unfortatenately, we need a new one, with a new battery so we can catch the signal in our truck. A dell, with dvd burner. We really need this because our project movies to towns that have no electricity. It is our main instrument in our ministry.) Please click here to donate.

Friends, thank you for visiting our blog to keep up with the trips.

Our trip to Dominican Republic was for 2 weeks, but, we ended up staying a month to finish fencing the property. As you can see in the picture we invited all the children. We gave away coloring books, over 150 of them, played games and just laughed together.

Something that really touched me was, a couple of them saw me packing-up to leave and they asked "Jorge are you leaving? We are going to miss you!" That really touched my heart and reminded me that all the work, the sweat that goes into helping the poor and children is worth it. Yes, at times it does get lonely. Since we are only 2 years old, we can't afford to take other volunteers with me. At times it does get over whelming, but again, I would not trade what i do for all the money in the world, and I know some day soon we will be blessed, and be able to take a team.

The second picture is the home we built and donated last year. I painted it in this recent trip. For the first time the kids that live in this home were smiling. So thank you once again sponsors, because of you, we are able to go and do what we do!

Friends!! How are you??

Just a brief hello and brief story of some things that went on in Colombia..

I arrived there on March 19 and leaving tomorrow April 5th. A very fast trip... tooo short!

I arrived in Bogota, and stayed at a home which cost about 20,000 pesos per night, its a missionary home, that´s about 12. dollars..



I went on bus to Tunja, which is 1 hr half. I met with a group of 3 and we left to Cicuco, Colombia, which is a 15 hour bus trip in Colombia! You can imagine how bumpy it was.


We arrived and the whole town was awaiting our arrival! What makes our trips so special, is that we go to places that are hard to get to. We want to reach those that don´t get many visits. To them, to receive an American is a reason for celebration.

I´m happy to say, that we were able to paint an orphanage in this town. To pray with others that so desperately needed prayer. As you can see in the picture. Maribel is chained to the wall, because of how violent she is. It did cause my little hairs in my arm to rise. But we showed her love. The children, well, this country's abuse rate for children is 10 times higher then any other country in Latin America.



Keep them in your prayers!

My dear friends!!! its been so long...

A special hello to Fellowship of the Holy Spirit in California! Reina, Pastor John, Ana, Leigh High Christin, Paula.
I was in Colombia November 19 through Jan 25.
But, here I am, back and sharing with you some very special news... A home we build for the family that some of you have helped so much. Also 2 pictures with a banner stating the financial contribution of Fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

Paula and Christin, thank you because although you have not met us, you have sent clothing to this family. I was able to see the their faces when they found out they would have a home for Christmas! In only two years that we inaugurated Nazirite Childrens Missions, with a mission to help the poor and children, thanks to you, and God for sending you, we built in 2006 a school and this home for this family!

We thank Expedite Mortgage and Leticia of Miami for helping us reach the children in Dominican Republic. Expedite Mortgage for helping us help a country in which the abuse rate is 10 times more then any other Latin American country.

Please see our newest pages... www.nchild.org/change.htm and www.nchild.org/building.htm

we love you!

Thank you!

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!
