We also had a time to celebrate a friendship. God had a plan when He sent us here! And we are very grateful for that! God has been opening the doors for the opportunity to be more than partners, we feel like family!

There is no language barrier to build a relationship! We smile, we laugh, we love on each other! That’s Pastor Luis and Quentin’s friendship!

We had a great time with Pastor Luis and Pastora Adita this afternoon. They shared their testimonies and how God called them to the ministry 10 years ago!
We loved to hear another part of their story and their obedience to listen to the Lord ever step on the way!
We prayed over them and the ministry they have been doing here in Siquirres.

Today we prayed for 50 families that we will meet this week.
We don’t know who they are or where they live but we know they will be receiving a gift from the Lord, the Gospel and some groceries! Our prayers is for this groceries to be multiplied and to share to these 50 families that God is still faithful and have never forget about them.

We had a great time delivering groceries this morning. We split the group into 3 teams and visited 15 families!
We prayed over them and invited them to the church this week

We had a blast at VBS this afternoon! Mr. Tiger and Mr. Bear shared a great story about a miracle that Jesus did. He fed hundreds of people with just some bread and two fish.

We taught the kids a new song this afternoon. We showed them the motions and sang with them! It was great, they caught on to the song right away!

We went to deliver 15 more bags of groceries this morning to different homes in the community! We were able to share with the locals and also prayed over them! Some of our visits have been an answer from the Lord and a blessing for a family.

We had about 10 women gather with us to learn about Jesus! We were able to talked about what we fear and what we have held onto that we don’t want to give to the Lord. Those things we were challenged with this year. Some of them shared some testimonies on how they hold onto things instead of holding to the Lord and how they have overcome this.

While the ladies were doing women's ministry, the guys helped with the kids! Over 40 kids showed up to play with us. We learned a Bible story and we had so many fun games like hide and seek!

We had an amazing time with the ladies yesterday. Monica shared when Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego had to go to the fiery furnace just because they did not want to worship the king’s god.
It was great to hear how God can deliver us from the fire. He can deliver us through the fire and He can deliver us by the fire to Heaven. Our faith is increased and it is perfect.

We had an amazing Rec Day! We had an adventure at the river while doing rafting and then we had fun in the mountains while crossing the forest and river in a zip lining tour!
