Can't believe that I leave for the Dominican Republic in 2 days! God is going to change people lives! And I am so thankful that I get the opportunity to be apart of spreading his word and also getting to see the lives get changed! I want to thank anyone who helped me to even get to go on this trip! I am so blessed!
