About the Cause
Posted by Centro de Desarrollo Integral Covenant in Dominican Republic on 02/20/2026
Doña Mela is a grandmother who has dedicated her life to her family. Today, her greatest responsibility and her greatest love are her six grandchildren, who depend entirely on her. They currently live in a house that isn't theirs and must vacate it soon. Uncertainty and fear are constant because they have nowhere safe to go. The grandmother doesn't work. Her age and health no longer allow it. She lives solely on the help her children sometimes give her when they are able to support her. There are good days and there are difficult days… but there are always six little ones who need food, care, and protection. With immense effort, she managed to build a small house of her own, hoping to move in with her grandchildren. However, the house is not yet finished. It lacks: Security bars to protect the children Windows to protect them from the cold, rain, and dust A floor, as it is currently just dirt Without these elements, the house is neither safe nor suitable for six children to live in. Today we appeal to your kind heart. Any help, however small it may seem, can make a big difference.

How the church will sustain the Cause
As a church, we would look for ways, whether among the members themselves or by organizing fundraising activities, to help that family.
We want to achieve the ideal of having a children for Christ, free from poverty, with an optimal level of spiritual development that leads them to be part of a generation of preachers of the word of the Lord. We seek to form an integrated society that helps us as a church to worship the name of God.
