Medicines needed for the senior trip to the Dominican Republic




As you may know, the senior trip to the Dominican Republic is coming up in less than two weeks. The seniors need your help to gather the materials they need to take down to this lush island with them. On Friday, you'll be given the opportunity to help out via a medicine drive. If you bring the medicine assigned to your grade, you will be in turn rewarded with out of uniform that day. 

Its absolutely understandable if you don't quite have a grip on what exactly the seniors will be doing in the DR. Essentially, they are spending half of their time in villages stricken with both physical and relational poverty attempting to bring the joy and message of Christ to the children and people involved with the schools there through VBS-type activities. The seniors are spending the other half of their time touring the island, soaking in the sun's radiation, and bonding as a class before they graduate  If you're still curious, feel free to speak to a senior about it and ask them what you can pray for while they're gone! They have prayer bracelets they'd love to give you. Don't forget your medicine on Friday!
