We have an encouraging update to Roseline’s story. We previously shared how Roseline unexpectedly found herself pregnant with her third child and did not see a way to keep her baby when she struggled to feed the two she had. The Lord allowed our team, along with Liphat, a local Haitian pastor, to act on His behalf by spending time with her and reminding her of the hope offered in Christ. Roseline chose to keep the baby, but not without fear of the difficult road ahead.

Because of your ongoing generosity, the WE team and Liphat were able to visit Roseline and provide her with hygiene items, a tarp to help when it rains, a propane stove, and food to help her through the remainder of her pregnancy. More than giving her the items, they shared the heart behind it— how God led her to the mobile clinic to learn about her pregnancy and be supported by people who care. They shared that this provision is from the Lord, who deeply cares about her and her children.

Pastor Liphat and our team proceeded to pray for Roseline, telling her that she has the opportunity to know Jesus, who will always be with her wherever she goes. Liphat explained that it doesn’t mean that everything will be easy in her life, but that God would be with her every step of the way and that He is faithful. Roseline responded that she would like to commit to following Jesus! The team prayed with her and as they were saying their goodbyes and getting ready to leave, Roseline’s sister expressed that she would also like to pray to accept Christ!

Our team left that day with full hearts, knowing that the safest place for Roseline and her sister to be is in the hands of the Lord and that He is faithful to take care of them. It’s evident how God placed the right people at the right place at the right time to help meet the needs of Roseline and her family. Through the response, He literally changed her and her sister’s eternities, too! There are so many women we meet who are just like Roseline, and when we’re able to step into their stories and tangibly meet needs and remind them of God’s care for them, eternities can change. Would you prayerfully consider donating to the WE Benevolence Fund so that we can immediately step in and serve the next Roseline?

With Love,

Esterline's Story

By Mackenzie Bartolome • April 16, 2026
Esterline’s story began in a place of deep fear and uncertainty. His mom was very sick, and their family had already spent everything they had trying to help her; going from place to place, even to a voodoo doctor, hoping something would work. But nothing changed. She was still just as sick, and they were left with no money and no answers. In the middle of dealing with his mother’s illness and his own desperation for her to get better, Esterline cried out to God. “If you save my mom,” he prayed, “I will follow you for the rest of my life.” Not long after, he asked his small group leader and their village champion to come to his home and pray. As they stood together and lifted up his mom, something powerful happened. Not just physically, but spiritually. In that moment, she chose to put her trust in Jesus.And things began to change. Day by day, her health started to improve… until she was completely healed. But the story doesn’t stop there. Esterline remembered the promise he made. He went to the village champion and said, “I need Jesus. I remember my promise to God.” And he chose to follow Him. Now, instead of fear filling their home, there is joy. Instead of searching for answers, they have found hope. Together, they go to church. Together, they worship. What started as desperation turned into a story of healing.

From Need to New Life

By Mackenzie Bartolome • April 16, 2026
March was packed, and we can’t wait to tell you about it! Over the course of the month of March, 361 team members came alongside the work in the Dominican Republic, helping serve 1,535 people through medical care and reaching 746 more through Strategic Ministry Time. We welcomed over 2,200 kids into Kids Club, and most importantly, we celebrated 61 people who made the decision to follow Christ! While in the community of Los Higos, one of our teams spent time with a couple who are both battling cancer. After spending most of their savings on medication, they were often left without enough money to even buy clean drinking water. Through local church leaders, we were able to reach their home and give them a water filter that will provide safe, clean water for the next 10 years. As the team shared how the filter takes water that isn’t safe and transforms it into something clean and pure, they explained how Jesus does the same in our lives—washing, restoring, and making us new. Sitting there in their home, the couple was moved to tears. In that moment, both chose to accept Christ. We are so thankful for every team member that came down, ready to serve, share the Gospel and bring hope to every man, woman and child across the Dominican Republic.
