Buenos Dias!!! Today is our first full day in the Dominican Republic. Our tired selves woke up bright and early ready to seize the day. Nothing a cup of coffee can’t fix! This morning we went to the village of El Peñon! We were blessed to worship at their church and meet the lovely people of their community. Tomorrow we will serve those same people and be able to provide dental care in the same church where we praised the Lord!! See ya after clinic tomorrow!

It wasn’t all work today, we got to play too!! After an amazing lunch of chicken tendies (SO GOOD!) and french fries, we had the most exhilarating time setting up dental chairs!!!! Haha, just kidding (kinda) but we went to the beach and created fellowship. We also had a fashion show to strut out fabulous scrubs. It wouldn’t be a dental mission trip without a little bit of competition. We already played our first round of Code Names (IYKYK). To add a little spice, this year we are split into tribes based on our rooms.

Blue: Patterson, Lil Nathan, Gavin, Jeremy, Caleb

Yellow: Laurel, Lauren W, Caroline, Hannah

White: Maggie, Cathy, Emily, Lauren B, Ellington

Purple: Annie, Georgia, Moya, Emma, Celia

We will keep the points updated for y’all every night! Gotta go, Bible Trivia is starting soon!

Dios te Bendiga.
