My name is Mery Del Carmen Hernandez, I am 41 years old, I live in Jarabacoa, Dominican Republic. I am a single mother of three girls, their names are Maireny (18), Ismeiry (12) and Ismairelyn (11). I work for FIGHT Ministries as cleaning personnel. My work directly impacts the girls at our refuge and the job of my coworkers as keeping a clean and safe environment is essential for the ministry’s operations.

FIGHTS mission is to help heal and restore underage girls who are victim of human trafficking. I love that I get to serve God at a place like this. I try to do everything as for the Lord and not man. My plan is to soon go back to school to get equipped to keep serving God and others even with more excellence. It will give new skills and opportunities do to what I love the most, sharing God’s word with others and talking to them about how wonderful and beautiful God is.

I believe prayer and financial support plays an important part on carrying out what God has called me to do. Prayer helps strengthen the hearts and minds of the girls and all employees, and financial support also helps us be able to be able to focus on our calling, knowing our needs are taken care of.  

The Bible teaches that all of us are called to make disciples, of all nations. I believe that some go, and others send. Would you consider joining me in prayer and if God lays so in your heart to maybe become a financial supporter? knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58).

 May the Lord of peace bless you and keep you!

 Mery
