Nathan Walker: It’s has been a beautiful and warm Sunday in Northern Scotland. Our first full day began with the team attending morning service at Dornoch Free Church. We then walked through the highlands and by the sea to the nearby town of Enbo for lunch. Afterwards, we attended a team meeting back at the church to prepare of the upcoming week of HBC. Finally, we enjoyed dinner at the Manse before heading back to our hosts for the night.
Karl Kueser: O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babies and infants you have established strength…Psalm 8:1-2a (HBC Scripture memorization)

Isaac Wheat: It's not a very long update but there's not much to say, which I suppose is a blessing when it comes to travel. :o)

Charlotte Sanderson: One question I have been continuously asked as this project has come to an end is “what has been your favorite part or memory?” However, when you spend two weeks in a place that is so drastically different from where you typically live, it is hard to pick only one.
Shannon Montgomery: This morning the media team and I wrapped up our work from the past two weeks. I went into this project never having been at this site and not knowing anyone who had done it in the past. So I didn’t know what to expect. But in hindsight it’s clear to me that this was exactly where God wanted me.
Caleb Foster: Hello! I just finished our last day at the healthcare site in Cienfuegos. I have really enjoyed my time here at the clinic.
Caroline Schantz: Today was my last day at the Education site. For the last two weeks I've been getting to know the kids of Santiago - learning their names, faces, and personalities. As always, we started out by singing their national anthem and praying. Afterwards, it was hot so we combined both the classes to do our Bible story and songs. Today was special because we got to do a puppet show for the kids and they LOVED it. We ended the day, as usual, by doing our craft and going outside to play on the swings. After the kids had lunch, we all hung out till their parents arrived to pick them up.
Elijah Taylor: These past two weeks I’ve been working at the Facilities and Maintenance Site along with Mike White, a youth pastor named Gavin Pantella from the Florida team, and Luke Yoder, who is a full time missionary here in the DR with his family of seven. Our job is to support all of the outreach sites by fixing, building, and running errands for things to make their lives easier.
