Mission Emanuel
Mission Trips
Those coming to the Dominican Republic are encouraged to pack appropriately based on the type of trip and work. A suggested packing list is provided for your convenience.
Many Americans tend to dress very casually when visiting the DR. While we understand the desire to be cool and comfortable, we encourage you to bring items that are slightly nicer (dress shorts, skirts, nice jeans, collared shirts, clean shoes, etc) for evenings out and non-working times. We believe that this small action communicates respect and appreciation for Dominicans and their culture. Thanks!

All participants need to complete the Participation and Medical Release Form.
Also, our Participant Guidebook is full of helpful information.
As you prepare for your trip to the Dominican Republic, it is vital that your are up-to-date on all pertinent medical vaccinations and immunizations. While in the villages of Cielo and Nazaret, you will NOT be in the most rural parts of the country. Therefore, anti-malarial medications are NOT required, however you may take them as an extra precaution at your discretion.
Please go to the Centers for Disease Control website for more information.

Child Sponsorship Program
The Sponsorship Program is a way to build a relationship that will last through the most important years of a child's life. For $30 per month a child can receive medical attention and an education, but it means so much more. It is a chance to extend your family. Through letters and trips to the community, you can share the little joys in life and see the world through their eyes.
It is also an opportunity to be as Christ instructed, by serving the least among us. What is difficult to describe is that the joyful smiles of these children, experienced in the communion of friends, becomes tangible evidence of God's care and grace for all of us. Visit our children that are in need of sponsorship.
