LWU Mission trip to the Dominican Republic broadens horizons By Duane Bonifer Lindsey Wilson University student Hadleigh Parrish '29 discovered that not sharing the same language does not have to be an obstacle to communicating with another person. Parrish learned that while helping out at a Vacation Bible School while on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic. Parrish was sitting beside a little girl who she said "was crying about something." "I didn't really know what it was because I couldn't communicate with her (in Spanish)," said Parrish, a human services and counseling and Christian ministries double major from Russell Springs, Kentucky. "I just sat down beside her and put my arm around her. Then another little girl comes up, sits right beside me and puts her arm around me. It didn't matter that I was from another country and we didn't speak the same language. She just knew she was safe. It was precious. It's so important to use words in ministry, but you also have to love people without using words." Parrish was part of a 20-member group that included Lindsey Wilon students, faculty, staff and alumni who made a July 14-21, 2026, mission trip to Santiago, Dominican Republic.
