Overview
This project is for all young adults ages 18-35. Join volunteers from around the world as they participate in interactive service.
Volunteers on this project will work in three communities near Barahona, Dominican Republic.
First, volunteers will be working at the Fidelidad church. This congregation is located in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Barahona, and a lot of local kids do not have respect for their church and throw rocks or smudge the walls. They want a building that is representative of the God they serve, so they have requested Maranatha’s assistance to build a block wall to protect their church. In addition, the group will construct a small One-day Church building in the back of the property to serve as a children’s Sabbath school classroom.
Second, volunteers will help paint and complete finishing work for two church buildings that were recently completed by Maranatha: the Fudeco and Juan Esteban congregations. They have both received new block churches thanks to Maranatha volunteers, but now they will receive a new coat of paint!
In addition to the construction the team will also reach out into the local communities through activities such as children’s ministry programs, health education, women’s ministry programs, and distributing food and hygiene kits.
