3. Serving Christ In the Dominican Republic The Dominican Republic (population 9 million) shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti in the Caribbean Sea. Jarabacoa, located in the Central Mountain Range of the Dominican Republic, has an elevation of 1,500 feet. It enjoys a mild year-round climate and is known as "The Land of Eternal Springtime." Many rich Dominicans maintain a vacation home here because it is cooler than at sea level.

4. Kids Alive International Kids Alive International is a Christian faith mission dedicated to rescuing orphans and vulnerable children–meeting their spiritual, physical, educational, and emotional needs–raising them to be contributing members of their society and witnesses to their family and community.

6. El Arca The goal of the Ark is to take in children who have been orphaned, abandoned, or abused and train them to become productive members of their society and active disciples of Jesus Christ. The program is centered on the relationship between the individual child and his or her housemother/houseparent. The children range between 2 and 17 years old.
