Hey everyone! I am so excited to announce that I am returning to the DR this summer to do the internship again! However, this year I am going as an internship leader!! I am beyond thankful for all the supporters I had last year, both financially and through prayer! I cannot wait for this summer to see how the Lord will use me in this new role!! With that being said, I am about to start sending out some letters to anyone who wants to know more about what I will be doing this summer and how you could support me!! I have no doubt that the Lord will provide for me just like he did last year (and everyday of my life!) Thank you all so much! I love you all and cannot wait to write to you guys ❤️🇩🇴

If you are interested in receiving more info please send me your address (you can either send me a text message, private message me here, or on my regular account!)

Come join me this summer! Come serve the Lord and see if he is calling you to ministry!! I would love to talk to you about this amazing opportunity!! Please feel free to reach out!!

CALLING SUMMER 2026 INTERNS - 6 WEEKS THAT MATTER!

Are you college-age and interested in missions? This summer, we’re looking for 8 interns to join us for a six-week, hands-on missions experience where missions isn’t just taught—it’s lived.

As an intern with DR Vision, you’ll live in the city and serve alongside missionaries in ongoing ministry, be involved in local church outreach and a church plant, receive missiology training and Spanish instruction and be challenged to plan and lead ministry. While days are often packed, you will also have down time to experience unique places such as: the old colonial city, a special mountain leadership retreat and, of course, some turquoise water at a sandy beach along the way!

We’re looking for students with a love for God, a heart for service, a passion for missions, a flexible and adaptable spirit and the courage to live and serve as part of our team. This six week internship could be a pivotal highlight of your life! To apply, click the link at the bottom of the internship information page. https://dbmi.org/internships/

Hello everyone! It’s been a little bit since I have posted in this page just because I’ve been so busy! I have a few things I would like to update you all about!!

1. The first thing is that I will be returning back to the DR in March but only for 10 days! So with that being said I will not be raising money since it is such a short trip!

2. My next update is that as long as next semster goes well, I will graduate in May with my associates in psychology! I plan on getting my bachelor’s degree but as of right now I’m not sure where I will be attending or when.

3. Finally, I am seeing about going to the DR again as an intern after I graduate!! After I pray and see if that is where the Lord wants me, I will post about fundraising for my trip! You all supported me so much and I am still amazed at how God blessed me!

I ask that you all be in prayer for me over the next few months! I have a lot of deciding to do, and I want to make the right decisions. For me that means a lot of prayer and asking for guidance from the Lord. I also ask for prayers for me in the winter and spring semester! I have made the crazy decision to take two biology classes all in the same semester so please be in prayer for me as I am super nervous!

The Lord has been so good to me, and I have been so blessed to be able to do what I am and have been doing! Thank you all for your support, I love you all so much and cannot wait to update you some more here in a few weeks! If you have any questions feel free to message me!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬ ‭

Life recently!

I was able to serve at the SHE Conference at the Lifehouse table! Such an amazing way to serve by selling these handmade coconut pieces!! If you would like to buy one of these pieces, message me and I can send you the link!

I was also blessed to be able to make a Dominican meal for our churches Mission night where the children learned about the DR! I made pollo guisado (stewed chicken), rice, beans, salad, along with limeade, morir soñando (an orange drink that translates to “die smiling”), and batidas which are basically a strawberry shake!

•Hello friends! A lot of people have been asking me when my next trip is, and Lord willing, I will be back in the DR for a week in March over my spring break! If you would like to help support my next trip send me a message!!

•I want to thank you all so much for all your prayers, financial support, and encouraging words! The Lord blessed me so much this summer and I am so excited that He is calling me to the mission field! I have to learn to be patient and not get ahead of what the Lord has planned for me!! This summer was life changing for me and I was so blessed to be in the DR this summer! All the ministries I was involved in really put into perspective what full time missions could look like for me! Again, I want to thank you all for loving and sending me! I couldn’t do it without you all!

•If you have a few minutes, check out this video and see how you all helped me this summer!! I cannot wait to see what the Lord has planned! If you know anyone who might want to do the internship next summer message me and I can point them in the right direction! It was such a great experience that I would recommend to anyone (with at least one year of college experience) even if they aren’t considering missions!

In Miami friends! My flight to Nashville has been delayed which means I won’t be landing in Nashville until 12:30 😖 I’m going to see about going on standby so say a prayer that I can get an earlier flight!!

“Lord there is no one like you! For you are great, and your name is full of power.” Jeremiah 10:6

Palabra de Vida has been so awesome this week! Being able to help these students grow in their love for the Lord has been so special! And for us interns this was a great way to rest and rejuvenate! We were able to be poured into while also pouring into the lives of these students!!

Many students on this trip rededicated their lives, and praise God many of them chose that the Lords plan was better than their own! I am so grateful to have been able to come and get to know these students!

I laughed so much this week too! Let’s just say if you’re ever playing volleyball in a slightly wooded and bushy area… know where the trees and the bushes are so you don’t embarrass yourself! Also take a peek at the “burst of energy” that Adelle had when she put her Hokas on after wearing her tiny heels!🤣
