My Journey to the Dominican Republic

Whirlwind.

That's about the only word I have to describe the last 2 years of my life.

I figured at this point I would be finishing college, looking for "real jobs", and circling places on a map I would like to move.

Instead, God has me on a path I couldn't of predicted if I tried.

It wasn't a giant revelation that happened overnight, just a series of small next steps that led to bigger things.

My week in the Dominican Republic this past summer really changed everything for me. I knew I was meant to show Christ's love to the next generation, I just never knew I would/could be doing that outside of the local church. It took a while for me to fully step into this calling, but now that I have God has blessed me with an incredible opportunity to live out his plan for me.

I have been offered a job to live in the Dominican Republic working at Caribbean Mountain Academy (About CMA). I will be living in house with the students there, and walking their journey along side them. The job is a full-support position, so I will need a team of people behind me to support me on a month-to-month basis. I will post information about where you can specifically give later, right now I am asking for one thing.

Will you lift this entire process up in your prayers? Be praying for my heart, my walk with Christ, my relationships I will be putting at a long distance in the next month, and the students and staff at CMA? Will you pray and see if God specifically lays my journey on your heart? And if so, will you consider being on my monthly financial team?  This journey doesn't happen without a team behind me. But if my last mission trip showed me anything, it's that if it's God's WILL it's God's BILL. He is a promise maker, but he is also a promise keeper! I can't wait to update the people reading this with more information on how they can walk alongside me on this journey!

Much love, and God bless

Hunter
