Rod and Nancy are the directors of 2nd Mile Missions. These 2 have an amazing passion for the people of Bavaro, Dominican Republic! 2nd Mile Missions is a ministry focused on providing educational, spiritual and nutritional enrichment for children in the Dominican Republic. Founded in 2005, the ministry is partnered with a local church in Bavaro, a large but very poor community outside the gates of the beautiful beaches and resorts of Punta Cana. The town is made up of underprivileged Dominicans and Haitians seeking employment in the resort development areas. Pastor Pascual Borrell and his church, Church of God for the Nations have a passion to reach the lost and provide hope for the searching. 2nd Mile Missions has worked alongside the church to provide a preschool, elementary and high school for over 500 children in poverty. A trade school is also available for students wanting to learn a specific skill for future employment. A sponsorship program helps unite individuals from the U.S. with a specific child in the school. Sponsorship provides this child with education, a hot meal every day and school supplies. 2nd Mile Missions has also provided two school buses and is currently building a safe house for children who are abused, neglected or abandoned. Our goal in 2nd Mile Missions is to continue providing opportunities for children to grow spiritually and academically so we can help them break the cycle of poverty in their world.
