| Ariails return from the DR |
Our DR mission team leaders, Julia and Julius Ariail, returned safely from the Dominican Republic on November 7. They represented Bishop Benhase at a service of thanksgiving for the ministry of the Rt. Rev. Julio C. Holguín, who retired as Bishop Diocesan on November 1, and at the installation service of the next Bishop Diocesan, the Rt. Rev. Moisés Quezada, on November 4. To see photographs from both of these historic events, click here: November 1 Holguin | November 4 Quezada
One of the photographs in the November 4 Installation album shows eighteen people who came from El Pedregal to represent their church at this event. To see this photograph, click here. |
