Partnering with Villa Faro Church in Santo Domingo.
For several years, the kids at Calvary collected school items to send with Calvary members Ale Encarnacion and Eilyn Hidalgo when they travel to their home church of Templo Biblico Villa Faro in the DR to help with their summer VBS. Our church is partnering with this church in prayer and teams travel there every summer to work along side their VBS program, helping and learning from them.
While we are there we also spend a day serving at the Kids Alive orphange in Monte Plata.
