Doulos Discovery School is a non-profit Christian school located in the rural mountains of the Dominican Republic. They exist to be a light for Christ in the community of Jarabacoa and to provide an excellent education to children from all economic and faith backgrounds. The staff and governing leadership are non-denominational, but hold to traditional Christian beliefs. Our Redeemer Lutheran Church sponsors a child and has helped with fund raising to support a new school building. ELCA World Hunger is uniquely positioned to reach communities in need. From health clinics to microloans, water wells to animal husbandry, community meals to advocacy, your gifts to ELCA World Hunger make it possible for the ELCA to respond, supporting sustainable solutions that get at the root causes of hunger and poverty.
Bega Kwa Bega is the phrase we use to describe our companion synod relationship with the Iringa Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania (ELCT). In English, the phrase means “shoulder to shoulder”, describing the way in which we accompany one another in a spirit of mutuality, inclusivity, and vulnerability.
