Revival Experience

Last evening the teens and I experienced a Dominican Revival. Those who have been to Creation said it was much like that only held in the street with a huge stage and lots of lights. We estimated over a thousand in attendance. Lots of hand raising, singing, and shouting. The female rap group was the favorite among the crowd and our group. Although we only understood a few words, it was exciting to see the spirit of the Lord moving through these people in Barahona. We were told by one of the interns here that we might experience some falling to the ground and shaking, but we left to get ice cream before any of that happened. We received some smiles from the little girls, as well as giggling at Maggie´s dancing. A couple of other boys thought one of the basketball guys from the Minn. team was Michael Jackson.
People are beginning to feel some stomach upset. To be expected.
We miss all of you! Looking forward to sharing more when we return. Also looking forward to the beach this afternoon!
Take care!
Darlene
