PROVIDENCIA AND I WORKED AT SUNCOAST CHRISTIAN ACADEMY 2005-2007
We worshiped with some of the most hospitable Christians we ever met. Several opened their homes to us until we were able to meet our own survival needs.
Part of the land that was purchased years ago is for the future home of La Caoba American Academy of English in the La Caoba Sector of the city of Higuey on the eastern coast in the Dominican Republic.
The Matthews' reside just to the right of this lot. The corner room of their residence will presently be used for the academy.
