All the leadership is new and great changes and activation of the missions are expected.

The altar also was rebuilt and expanded., The capacity of the temple went from 80 to 115 people. To celebrate, pastors and neighbors were invited, with an attendance of over 130 people.
Pray for the pastor of the church, Teodora Cuevas, Viuda Vargas that God will continue giving her strength and love to continue the work,. Also, pray for blessings on the Dominican Republic Central District.
Brother Joan Paulino said “We are committed to the Lord and the legacy of our brother René Acosta; the superintendent said during the conventions: Remind me of Rene every time you invite me to your churches, that way, it will help me remember the commitment I have made and how I should conduct myself with the same love, patience and respect he had for all ”
