On a Mission of Healing
0:00
For years, Adam Carlile knew he wanted to be a missionary. What he didn’t know was where. Adam has now spent over ten years in the Caribbean nation of the Dominican Republic. As the Co-Director of Building Bridges of Hope, his work focuses on helping at-risk children along the border with Haiti. With a 25% infant mortality rate in the area, his organization is currently building a medical clinic to create safer conditions for local children. Thanks to the generous support of Knights across the United States, these facilities are quickly becoming a reality.
