The average Dominican lives with the mentality that life is a struggle. They believe that the only way to get by is to have a good education and a good job, but most have little motivation to actually complete this. Many dream of a life in the United States. Even though the average family possesses very little, it is a fairly materialistic culture due to so much influence from Europe and the US. Money is highly coveted and many Dominicans, even Christians, see themselves as receivers rather than givers.
Our heart is to raise up and disciple a generation that believe they have much to give in the Kingdom of God. The Dominican Republic has been receiving missionaries for years. We believe it is time for them to be senders.
In the next several years, we plan to raise up and send out the first teams of Dominican Missionaries. The strategy is simple: 1) make disciples, 2) form church planting teams, 3) move into unreached areas and plant a house church, 4) train and equip teamsin 10-40 missions for those who have the call.
