Day 3: A Haitian Church, community, walking and Cable Cars. The team used their first full day in DR day to take in the signs and sounds of the community that they will be working in the rest of the week.
The team left Toronto this morning with little issues and have touched down in Santo Domingo (as of 4:00 pm EST) with the Lighthouse Team ready to greet them. They are all settled in at the Lighthouse compound, ready for their first full day tomorrow.
