Focus
Randy and Dignora serve a church plant “Iglesia Biblica Cristiana Nueva Esperanza” in the Dominican Republic.
God opened their eyes to be obedient instruments in His hands by proclaiming Christ to the least and lost captive to sin in the barrio where they serve. They proclaim Christ as Savior to this community called “Villa Orilla” in the city of San Pedro de Marcoris.
They reach out with welcome invitations to evangelism services, Sunday morning worship, prayer meetings, Bible studies, Sunday School, and a variety of helps with adults. Children’s ministries include crafts, hair cutting, teaching; Bible, reading, languages (Spanish and English), and helps with schools supplies/uniforms, school scholarships demonstrating a caring presence towards families.
Journey
This summer of 2022 in Dayton, Ohio USA, they participated in the Global Impact Conference held by Washington Heights Baptist Church being sent out to “Villa Orilla”.
For Randy, it was going full circle as WHBC was the church he attended when completing a bachelors degree in Bible/missions. His role in local churches since 1988 has taken him short term globally to the Republic of Congo, Zambia, South Africa, Ethiopia, Chile, and India.
Dignora too has been going out from her local church Central Iglesia Biblica Cristiana in San Pedro de Marcoris to help plant a church Las Caobos. She too has taken training completing Kiaros (missions course). March 2022 Randy and Dignora married serving together full time at Nueva Esperanza in the Domincan Republic.
They have three children Rachel, Ryan and Crismelia. Crismelia lives at home while Rachel & Ryan are out of the nest nurturing their families who love and serve the Lord.
