A little over a week ago, we had Diego officially dedicated to God in front of our church congregation. It was a special time in which a passage in Psalms was read and a prayer was given by pastors, Amauris and Lucrecio, on behalf of Miguel, Diego, and I. Garrett and Anne Boon stood up with our family as Diego's padrinos (god parents). Garrett and Anne work with Makarios groups and staff discipleship. Garrett also works with Miguel on the Makarios house project. They have both become very dear friends of our family while here in the DR. We pray Diego grows to love and respect our God and Creator and to live as a mighty man of God. We rejoiced in this special moment.

Again, we are so thankful to hear of all the amazing blessings you have received from God this summer. We pray for wisdom and guidance as you raise Diego. What an immense responsibility we have! Love & hugs to all!
So happy for this blessed event! We know God will direct and teach as you follow him. We pray for yet another grandchild to know the Lord someday. What an awesome privilege God has placed you in! We share in your joy...........
I wish I could have been there for that...I can't wait to see what God continues to do through your family!
What an awesome experience. It's so overwhelming sometimes to think everything is upon our shoulders to guide our children in a godly way but at the same time an awesome privilege. We can't do it without the Lord's help and grace.
