Happy Thursday from #missionaryatheart! We are so blessed to have the opportunity to help precious little boys just like this one every single day. His belly is swollen because it is full of parasites, his eyes are tired from sleeping on the dirt floor of the tin shack he calls home, and his heart is truly just crying out to be loved! We are so thankful that we are able to love on these sweet babies, teach them about the love of Jesus, and tend to their daily needs. Thank you Lord for allowing us the opportunity to change lives in the Dominican Republic! We truly could not do what we do without the love and contributions of all of our supporters! #missionaryatheart

The second is like it, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments depend the whole Law."
Matthew 22:36-40

Imagine washing your dishes in dirty water while the pigs eat in front of you. Pigs, dogs, mud, mosquitoes, no water to clean, and all of that being walked through your house every day. This is real life for the people in our villages. Imagine...
