Our next mission trip to the Dominican Republic will be from June 23-30, 2018. This is a Saturday-to-Saturday timeline. These new dates avoid conflict with the 2018 Honey Creek High School camp and other committed obligations of some missioners.
Thank you for your kind reception for Padre Sandino Sánchez and his wife, Ysabel Lantigua, at Christ Church on August 13. On Monday, August 14, Julia and Julius Ariail took them to Woodstock, north of Atlanta, to visit the DOK headquarters office. An album of photographs from that visit is available here. On Thursday, August 17, they returned to their home in the city of Boca Chica in the Dominican Republic. On September 8, Padre Sandino will meet Julius at the Santo Domingo airport and accompany him on an overnight visit to the Campamento in El Pedregal to facilitate a discussion about projects for our 2018 trip with Padre Ramón Canela, the new priest in charge of the Campamento.
