Why am I doing this??

Throughout my undergraduate and recently completed graduate studies, I have been searching for a job in which I could serve others using all of the various skills I have developed. During my research excursions in Latin America I fell in love with this area of the world and the people in it. I have also developed a deep compassion for the problems ailing third world countries and am determined to dedicate my life -God willing- to working toward improving some of the problems which I have observed. Throughout all of my countless hours of searching through mission conferences, job postings and company websites, I have not found anything that fits my own goals and uses my own skills as well as Doulos Discovery School in the Dominican Republic (DR). This school was developed to teach the underprivileged students of the DR with a focus on experiential learning, innovative teaching techniques, and leadership. This school aims to give students opportunities to have a quality education that is designed to prepare them for higher education in the DR and the US as well as being in an environment that is thoughtfully exploring what it means to follow Jesus.
