Bryan College Womens Basketball - Sunday
This morning, we drove to the capiatal city, Santo Domingo, to attended a Dominican church. Our SCORE group comprised about half the church. We sang a bunch of Dominican songs in Spanish (which was tough for those of us that don’t know the language). One of the SCORE Interns served as an interpreter for the service. That was interesting!! The preacher’s text was from Nehemiah and one of his major points was that indifference towards others can actually be worse than hating others. It was a good service and the congregation made us feel very welcomed.
Later on in the afternoon, we went down to the beach to watch the sunset and to do our devotionals. Heather Windom read from I Corintians 13 and talked about how our showing the love of Christ is the most important thing that we can do. We might have talents and gifts but if we don’t demonstrate His love for others than we are not living up to our potential. To wrap up the evening, we went to one of the nicer restaurants in Juan Dolio. It was an Italian restaurant and the food was very good. Most of the girls shared a pizza and then got ice cream in a mango fruit for dessert.
