Who we are

We live in the Dominican Republic and work with Young Life International. Jake works at Pico Escondido, a Young Life camp that serves Dominicans in this country as well as work teams from the states. We are both currently volunteers with Vida Joven, YL in Spanish, and I (Kyla) am a full-time mom. We want to keep you informed about our lives and our ministry as well as share some encouragement along the way. Read more to find out what God has been doing in our lives!

A Restful Weekend




Jake and I went with some friends to a place called Villa Pajon outside of Constanza. Constanza is about a 2 hour motorcyle ride from Jarabacoa. It is a beautiful farming town nestled in the mountains of the Dominican Republic. We had an amazing time riding motorcycles, relaxing on the porch, hiking and traveling to a site called Las Piramides. One of the most refreshing things about this trip was that it felt like we were in Oregon. The air was crisp and clear. We actually had to pull out our winter clothes and were still cold! We were so thankful for the opportunity to go on a small vacation.

Wow, God truly gives good gifts to His children. What a special blessing to get away--to be refreshed and blessed. Love and hugs from the 8 of us, and you never know, it could be 9 soon!
