last saturday's retiro


Last Saturday, July 28, there was a retreat in Los Higos. Several people participated from the Kids' Club, the Los Higos church plant, and also from a youth club that Andre works with in Jarabacoa. The retreats that Dominican churches do are a little different than what would come to an American's mind.


The retreat was help in a beautiful spot in a pasture near Los Higos. First we had worship together (see picture above), followed by a talk from Francisco (who runs SI's art school). Then we had some free time (in which I and some kids explored the hills nearby). Then we had lunch, moro and puerco guisado (rice with beans and pork in a red sauce), prepared by Meri. In the afternoon they played volleyball and then returned to Los Higos to have more worship in the pink house.
