Dominican Republic - Filter of Hope 2025

Thank you from Laynie, Milly, Ray, and Rush Rienow!

We have exciting news—our family has been given a unique opportunity to serve together on a mission trip this summer! In partnership and Filter of Hope and other families from our church, we will be traveling to the Dominican Republic from July 5-11, 2025, bringing clean water and the Gospel to families in desperate need.

Across the DR, many families still lack access to safe drinking water. Filter of Hope provides a simple, powerful solution: a small water filter—using the same technology as kidney dialysis—that can provide 250 gallons of clean water per day and last up to 10 years.

We’ll be working alongside local churches, visiting homes, distributing filters, and sharing the good news of Jesus.

This is a big step of faith for our family. We are asking the Lord to provide us with $2,000 each - for a total of $8,000 - to cover airfare, travel costs, and the filters we’ll be distributing. Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us and helping us reach this goal by June 20th?

God's Love,
Laynie, Milly, Ray, and Rush Rienow
