Helping the Dominican Republic

In February 2021, the WAY Radio listeners in Jacksonville and in Brunswick provided the funding needed to construct a community center. The WAY Radio community center in Alto de la Jagua will provide discipleship programs, including the Boys’ Life Basketball Discipleship program. It will provide a meeting place for the 200 children in the village to learn about Jesus while being afforded the opportunity to have programs that will challenge them to avoid the traditional traps of poverty in the Dominican Republic. Too many children, without programs like ours, end up trapped in a life of abuse and exploitation. Send a gift

Our Boys’ Life Basketball Discipleship program empowers young men to become leaders in spreading the gospel in their communities.

U CAN SEE THE WORK IN PERSON! Want to see the community center as it’s being built, or plan a trip for when it’s completed? You can work with Crossover CUPS Mission and visit the mountain village that WAY Radio’s listeners and staff have adopted … Alto de la Jagua.

WHAT’S NEXT? Once the community center is running, we’ll begin planning for the trade programs that will help give children an alternative to the exploitation that so many endure. Life skills like sewing and baking help the children eventually find REAL employment, while continuing to grow in their newfound faith in Christ.

JOIN US! WAY Radio in Jacksonville and in Brunswick are excited about what the future holds for the residents of Alto de la Jagua. Together we can make a difference in the Caribbean. Join us on a visit, join us in prayer, join us in support.

June 2024 Update

We had an incredible testimony come out of Alto de la Jagua. (Transcript) While the children were enjoying playing basketball together and then breaking up into their age appropriate discipleship groups, the adults in the community were also growing their faith through men’s and women’s discipleship where they’ve been learning what it means to be a part of Christian community and follow Jesus’ command to love your neighbor as yourself.  In response to this, the ladies have started pooling their limited resources to make sure that an elderly widow in the community has everything she needs, and to take opportunities to pray with her and encourage her in Jesus’ name. Your gifts of support have made this possible.  thank you!   Donate here
