From Student to Leader: How Doulos Shaped Yeudi Ramirez’s Journey

Meet Yeudi Ramirez, a proud graduate of Doulos Discovery School who now leads in every area of life—from church and family to business and community.

“Hello everyone, I'm Yeudi. Doulos has impacted many aspects of my life and has allowed me to develop very important skills—one of them being leadership.”

Leadership Rooted in Discipleship

As a student and later a staff member at Doulos, Yeudi was regularly exposed to healthy, Christ-centered leadership—something he now sees as rare and deeply needed in the Dominican Republic.

“One thing we really lack here is strong examples of healthy leadership. At Doulos, I experienced it daily.”

Through those experiences, Yeudi developed a wide range of leadership skills:

• Focusing on the details

• Building strong, Christ-centered community

• Fostering teamwork

• Attending to the needs of those you lead

“And much more!”

Living It Out: Ministry, Business, and Family

Today, Yeudi is putting those skills into practice in powerful ways. He serves as a pastor of a local church and co-leads a custom wooden art business with his wife.

“Those skills turned out to be incredibly useful as I now shepherd one of our local churches and run, along with my wife, our own business of custom-made wooden art.”

But for Yeudi, it’s about more than what he does—it’s about who he’s becoming.

“I am so grateful that, like the Scripture says—I am now able to give in grace what I have received by grace. I am so grateful God used Doulos to shape who I am as a leader in my family, church, business, and community.”

Why Stories Like Yeudi’s Matter

Yeudi’s journey reminds us that the fruit of a Doulos education is not just academic success—it’s servant-hearted leadership that flows into every part of life.
