Dominican Republic.

Nelson & Rennae have pioneered & serve various ministries in the Dominican Republic. 

In 2006, Rennae had the opportunity to work with the Shared Hope organization, when its founder came to Dominican Republic to meet with the Dominican government. This was the beginning of outreaches to sex workers and their children. As a result, Rennae's ministry partner, Pastor Ketty Figueroa, and her local church then founded  Bethesda Home for these and other at-risk children.  In addition, Rennae has been actively involved in training local churches in intentional outreach and evangelism to sex workers and bringing awareness to the churches concerning the issue of Human Trafficking in Dominican Republic.

The ministry was first founded in 1989 by missionaries Don & Terri Triplett in El Salvador. Since 1993, Nelson & Rennae have purposed to raise up an army of young, Spirit-filled warriors who would reach the world with the simple message that 'Jesus saves and is coming soon.' Over the years, we have trained hundreds of warriors from local churches doing outreach evangelism that especially targets children.
