How much

did your

house cost?

How long was your last hot shower?

Where did you sleep last night?

How many clothes are in your closet?

Where did your last glass of water come

from?How many shoes

do you have?How many trips do you take

to TOYS R US?

Page 16: Dominican Republic Trip

But here is the big question…

How many times have you thanked God today for all of

those things?

Page 17: Dominican Republic Trip

The people of the bateys thank God for everything that

he has given them

FAMILY

FRIENDSLOVELIFE

Page 18: Dominican Republic Trip

Why are the people who have so little thankful and the

ones who have so much only ask for

more?
