Children's Ministry/Construction
Geared toward Veritas (Parkview's 20s & 30s)

In 2014, Parkview took their first 20s & 30s trip to the Dominican Republic to serve with G.O. Ministries in Santiago, a ministry that supports local leaders (pastors and Christian workers) who facilitate churches, medical clinics, dormitories for teams, sports outreach, ongoing training, nutrition centers, and Christian schools. G.O. Ministries believes in raising up local leaders to better their community.

In February 2019, Parkview will be sending another team to Santiago to continue to help the Central Church further its ministry in the community. The focus of the work will be children's ministry and construction. This trip is geared toward the 20s and 30s age group however is not exclusive.
