Upcoming events

Just two important events in the next seven days...first, there is a storm heading for us. Now it is looking like it will be a category one or two hurricane. This morning's paper said it would hit Sunday morning, if it followed the projected track. Tonight I'm reading on the internet that it is still heading this way, only the ETA is Saturday afternoon.

The second event? Well, school is supposed to start on Tuesday. Monday is a national holiday here. We are really looking forward to getting started again. I think this year is going to be very fruitful.

Not upcoming, but just over this past week, was the Assembly of God Deaf camp. I dropped by for about five hours on Saturday and saw lots of old friends, and made some new ones as well. They had a pretty good turnout; it is a much anticipated event all year long.

Currently if you are a deaf Christian living in Santo Domingo, chances are you go to the Assembly of God, if you go anyplace at all. None of the other denominations are doing much in deaf ministry these days. There is one very active cult, however. Most Deaf people do not have a Deaf church or Deaf ministry within a reasonable distance of their home. There are only a handful throughout the whole city.
