Tursday

 By Linda Munoz

Tuesday I had the honor to witness one of  God’s miracle in motion! One of the seminarian’s wife joined my team who just happens to be an optometrist in her country! Our job was to find the right prescription for eyeglasses. 

A young woman sat down and I could tell by the very thick eyeglasses she had on that this was not going to be an easy task. How were we going to be able to help this young woman? But the seminarians wife new just what to do and together with the rest of my team the right pair of eyeglasses were found and when we put the glasses on her the smile on her face brought me to tears! She could see!!

 God is great! I can’t help but wonder what the seminarians wife will do with this new information when she returns to her country, maybe, she will be another Gayle Sommerfeld and further God’s kingdom in her country!

To God be the Glory!

First Day (Saturday)

 This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!  Our devotions performed in the bus this morning en route to our first eyeglass clinic captured so many aspects of this verse- the good when we acknowledge God and the not so good when we that this is His day.  Today was an amazing day!!! 120 people served and over 150 glasses. We started with a dress rehearsal picture above and were in full blow eye-glass mode just an hour later! What a blessing to be a blessing!  We appreciate your prayers!

Monday

 Due to some scheduling conflicts, we were able to take our Cultural day today rather than later in the week.  Everybody appreciated the early day of rest to get a different perspective of the Dominican Republic.  And, La Chocolata made a great impression! It is a small chocolate operation originally built as a female safe business- women only- thirty years ago that was a big deal here.  Today the founders granddaughter gave us a tour that included: Breaking and eating the mucus from a chocolate pod. It was quite sweet.  How hungry do you have to be to be the first to try this?! We then roasted the dried cocoa beans, ground them into a paste and rolled into balls  Pretty straightforward process actually and we bringing the process home.  Or maybe just the product!😁 And oh yeah! Our self proclaimed avocado lover said the ones grown here are the best! God bless you all!
