Heyy Guyys!
So we are here right now hanging out at Ace Wireless and meeting a ton of amazing new people! They have started small groups here that meet every week and they basically get paid to learn about God. It is a great way for them to reach out to the nonbelievers that work here, and integrate the church into the workplace. We were able to experience one of their small group times and listen to them share their thoughts. It was obviously difficult since I do not speak spanish but you can just hear the joy in their voices as they share the gospel with one another. We split up into groups that integrated with the workers and were able to get to know them while playing games. Although not all of us speak the same language, we were able to communicate through all the activities we were doing and being able to laugh with each other, enjoying each others company. I have had some great conversations with a few of the people and I am super excited for what this company is being able to accomplish. It is such a great idea that would be interesting to see spread to other workplaces, transforming the peoples hearts and minds.
Later tonight we are planning on having a BBQ. where we are going to hang with the local kids and get to have a blastttt. I miss all of you guys at home and I cannot wait to see you guys. God is doing amazing things and I feel so blessed to have witnessed the changes going on with the Dominican people, as well as the hearts of people in our group.
Love you lots,
Juliaaa
