Esperando de salir (waiting to leave)

Dejame empezar con un mensaje de gracias a todos quienes me han apoyado con sus oraciones y sus contribuciones a la causa de la misión de ILAC. Muchas gracias a todos y que Dios les bendiga!

Durante mi viaje, voy a llenar este espacio con mis experiencias y pensamientos de las cosas que voy a hacer durante mis seis semanas en la Republica Dominicana. Como voy a pasar la mayoridad de mi viaje en el campo de Sabana Rey, casí todo que voy a publicar aquí será de mis experiencas en el campo. Ademas, no hay Internet en los campos, y, por eso, no voy a tener muchas oportunidades para poner esta pagina al día. Pero, al fin voy a concluir con un resumen de mi viaje.

I would like to start this blog by thanking everyone who has supported me with their prayers and/or have contributed to the mission of ILAC (Institute of Latin American Concern). Thank you to everyone and God Bless!

Throughout my trip, I plan on updating this blog with my experiences and thoughts about what I will be doing/seeing during my six week stay in the Dominican Republic. Seeing as most of my time spent there will be in Sabana Rey, a rural village 2 hours East of Santiago, most of my updates will involve my time spent in the Campo. Also, since there isn't Internet there, I'll be limited to updating back at the ILAC center every week and a half or so, but I will try to update as often as possible! But, of course, at the end of my trip when I'm back in the States, I will fill in the blanks of my trip and conclude the blog. Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy reading about my experience!

Also, my group coordinator has an additional blog that she set up, which gives another perspective and other information on what we are doing down there. The page is: http://www.sabanarey.wordpress.com.
