Here is an interesting company that makes solar light bulbs.
They charge in the sun during the day and at night provide 2-6 hours of light.
This eliminates the need for dangerous carosene powered lamps.

Familia! We have another great testimony. God is good and faithful, and its worth leaving everything for Him.
This is a sign that we made and printed and is in front of the school we just finished.
Its importante for you to know, that it wasn't with financial donations. We just simply brought a man from the capital, and he felt confronted that outsiders were helping his country and he wasn't. He returned to Santo Domingo and contacted all his friends and by God's grace and favor we finished one classroom and are working on finishing the 2nd one!

Friends, familia! again, and again. thank you. As I stood in the Haitian border, tears of joy made there way. Because here we were, this tiny little ministry, taking help to our 5th nation!
Only God can do that with us, and with me, being such a scary cat as I am.! So thank you to those of you who have been with us in prayer, in counseling, (Ric.D.) in helping us be here. Dominican Republic is very costly. It is a nation that almost everything needs to be imported. So because of you we are here making a difference on Christ behalf.
We´re not a religion, we just desire to live in, as U2 would say "God´s country". Enjoy the pics! http://www.nchild.org/
En español... De nuevo, GRACIAS!! gracias a ti, que haz estado ahi, de alguna manera, economicamente o en oracion, apoyo moral (el mas importante) nada mas de pensar que este ministerio tan tan pequeño, Dios ha glorificado a su hijo para llevarnos a ayudar a 5 naciones ahora con Haiti. Fue algo muy emocional para mi personalmente. Porque esto amada, amado nacion de la nada. solo una oracion. Con eso aprovecho para decirte, TU PUEDES! llegar a recibir tu llamado-proposito en Cristo, no hay nada en esta tierra, ni carros, ni lujos, ni casas, que valga la pena como vivir en el proposito de Dios para tu vida. Fuistes creado para un proposito... es cierto! y viene con toda la plenitud, bendicion que no puede darte lo material, ni un pais! en este viaje, estabas tu.. Por ti, estamos aca, y fuimos a Haiti. (Dios atravez de ti) un beso, un abrazo!

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.

Family!!
Yes, this, as most of my emails is an emotional one!
First. THANK YOU!
(We boworred a camera, that is why the pics aren't that good, if you can help uswith donating a very good digital camera, new, please contact us, thank you) You are the reason for the pics that you are about to see in this email.
The Dominican Armed Forces visited our project to have our largest to date outreach for 2 communities!! Over 500 children along with there mothers were treated.
On site we had a dentist, gecologist, pediatritions, ear doctors, 22 of the military were doctors, and 29 volunteers. Those 29 volunteers are friends/relationships we established while living in Santo Domingo las year.
The "Good News" was shared to many. Including the children. This year we celebrate our 5th year! In August, I want to personally thank those sponsers that have been with us since almost the beginning. Enjoy the pics!! I am very very excited, happy that the Military said "This was the most organized outreach we have done" others said, "I enjoyed so much this outreach, we have been to many, the folks were so thankful" and what I wanted to hear was that the volunteers, visitors were impacted personally by the great need in this part of D.R. The south, is the poorest part of the country. "I feel chains in my life have been broken by this trip" Eduardo of Scotia Crecer.
I'll repeat it one more time, with 1 person, God can do wonders! Take the risk!!

Family!!
How are you?? Finally, we are here in Dominican Republic. I can't recall God opening so many doors all at once. I'm guessing He is happy with our obedience to move here and build this ministry further with our presence.
We had our first event in the capital - Santo Domingo. And it was our largest, over 600 children! We teamed up with a large bank called ScotiaCrecer. They are like Bank of America. Also, World Vision allowed us to use there site to hold this outreach, which brought over 200 lbs of medicine, 200 lbs of food, clothing, the Department of Health of Dominican Reppublic also helped and joined us in delivering that medicine and an ambulance. Colgate donated hundreds of toothpaste/toothbrush and we also had 7 doctors diagnosing the children.
Tommorrow we head to our project, we still can't live there because we are waiting for our bed, chairs to be able to live over there, while we built our own home also over there. I wasn't aware of just how serious the problem with water is. Right now that is our main priority, acquiring a profesional water filtration system. Also, since we are here, monthly support, and funds to build home.. here about this problem and how to help; http://www.nchild.org/urgent.htm

Thank you all, God bless you!

Good morning!
(below see, a 6 yr old child playing piano)
next trip April 20-26, local missionary group.
This year has started out amazing, we are humbly grateful to God for all He is doing. Our motto from the start was 'God is doing'. We wanted to confess that, because I personally got tired of hearing 'God is going to do', NO, i Believe He is doing all the time! We did our first missionary group trip in March 08' already! With a local Pastor, P. Chris and a missionary who had not done missions in years, Otto.
It blessed my heart to know that this trip to the project in Dominican Republic rekindled his passion and his calling. by the way, the pics of that trip are here - www.nchild.org/republica_dominicana.htm
And we had never had a 2nd trip lined up so quickly, a couple by the name of Ricardo & Luz are sponsoring a trip for April 20 -26. Along with a friend of theirs Javier. Javier is married to Natalia and they have a 5 month old baby. ( I think he's 5 mos.) Ricardo is a construction expert and Javier is an electrician.
Amazing that whenever we need something specific, God just sends the right person with the specific talent.It has been like that since He called us to this mission in August 2004.
I want to briefly share with you two things, actually 3 of importance. In my 2 1/2 months in Colombia (Nov - Jan) I... how do I express this, I did not know gratitude the way I saw it in that trip. I wasn't aware I had not grasped this amazing gift, GRATITUDE, I get emotional just writing about it. But, friend, it really pitched my soul, my heart to see how folks struggle outside, how there is a genuine drug problem with youth all over the world, how families are hungry and hopeless, but most importantly how VITAL it is that we SHARE the HOPE, the FAITH and the LOVE that we have.
A couple of times I had to ask God to forgive me, I had not been as grateful to Him as I should. And connected with this, I think I need to be out there f/t. 2 years ago I was scared to think that was my mision. But in 2008 I'm more then ready, I'm willing to completely leave my comforts, my life as I know it and just take the next leap of faith. I miss the everyday mission of being the words, the ears of Christ. For some reason in the missions field I always have an opportunity to do what brings me joy and satisfaction, serving others. Please pray as its been a very confusing, storm-like season for my mind, I NEED PEACE. I think there might be a battle for me not to take the step that I feel God is directing me in.
2- Attached is a beautiful image, a picture of what Jesus meant. To be 'Child like' It was sent to me by Claudia, its one of my constant prayers to be child like in my heart. To not allow the corruption of an adult heart. To remain pure, to forgive, forget, serve, help, and stay focused on my purpose and calling. I hope you enjoy it and hope it blesses you how it blessed me. Again, thank you.... thank you for believing, thank you for being a part and growing along with us, we are, if you think about it, family. So don't argue with eachother, FOR A HOUSE DIVIDED WILL NOT PROSPER!
PS, Natalia, can you translate this? Please.... :) (Natalia is now helping us with translating, updating pictures, any administrative duties, voluntarily, thank you Natalia! Matthew 18:2"He called a little child and had him stand among them."
