U.S. Visit and M.E. Anniversary

As my first week back to the DR ends, I wanted to write a quick update on how my trip back to the states went.

I had a great time in Maryland with my parents and my brother and sister. My brother came home for 3 weeks to visit and it was wonderful to see him as we hadn't seen him in over a year! I also was able to visit with aunts, uncles, cousins and family friends.

Towards the end of my trip, I went to North Carolina to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Mission Emanuel. Many people spoke about the way in which Mission Emanuel had touched their lives over the years. It was a reminder of just how important the work we are doing is for Americans and Dominicans alike.
