Working in the establishment of the First

Independent Fundamental Baptist Church

at San Francisco de Macorís.

Remeber is the third most important city of the

Dominican Republic, with around half million of
habitants, as well as the city with more drug
dealers.
 Driving 4 times per
week, for one hour
and a half looking
for the building for
church, a house to
live, the phone
company, the
power company,
etc… and getting to
know the place to
start the church as
soon as possible.
Way back home, one of the normal
things you see at the road.
One wheel
had problems
we had to stop
to fix it, here
kids since
very young
age are
send to the
streets to ask
money or to
work.
25% of dominicans don´t know either to write or to
read. Hundred of kids live at the streets. But even
tough the Lord loves there souls, and so do I. There
is much to do, but with the guide and help of the
Lord the Dominican Republic will be for Christ.
 On time

And out
of time
We have
everything
packed ready to
move.
Looking diligently for a house which we can pay,
also A Cheap transportation to take our things.
Thanks God we found one house, but we can not
move until the lawyer repairs some important
things of the house. We are praying to the Lord
that he may allow us to move to the house the
19th of January or before. We must make a
double payment plus an extra one for the lawyer,
which the law ask for. Always moving house
represents alot of payments, but this is good
because this allow us to see the hand of God
working in every moment and requires us ti
remember we must depend on him. Contracts of
power, water and phone must be also done, as
well as paying the transportation, but what a big
and faithful God we have, what a privilege what
an honor we have of been called Servants of the
Highest who never leaves us alone.
 I am really thanked of all the help Trinity
Baptist Church, Dr. Bob and his wife has
done for us. You are part of this ministry.
My desire is that next presentation Lord
willing will be finally of the first church
service at San Francisco de Macoris. Many
people comming to Christ, getting baptized
and discipling, that is why I am here, that
is my goal.
Altough I can´t go visit you, I do hope you
can come and visit us, and I can´t go with
out showing you what is waiting for you:
Once again
 Dominicans sell pig at the street, they
where selling the pig for 150 dollars, don´t
worry we didn´t buy it. Actually I wouldn´t
recommend you to do it my big experience
has send me several times to the hospital,
but what I can recommend you is to
continue praying for us, we love the
Dominicans and we really believe the Lord
wants to do big things at this land. Thanks
God for all your support may God pay you
back all what you do for me. Your help is
not in vain, keep strong and faithfully in
Christ.
 In Christ,
Your friend and brother,

Diego J. Valverde B.
I.F. Baptist Missionary to the Dominican
Rep.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye

stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in
the work of the Lord, for as much as ye know
that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
