Pastor Kenneth received us with a warm welcome! We always love to come back to our church family in Costa Rica!
We also had the orientation time where the staff shared some rules of the week, and reminded us of the importance of representing Jesus Christ this week!

We gathered with our church family this morning to worship and praise the Lord together as one body in Christ!
What a wonderful time together

We had a great time with the youth this afternoon. We got to know each other and the leaders shared a little bit about the church’s Rooted Ministry for the youth!

We spent some time hearing from the Pastors Kenneth and Alejandra! Their heart for the church that was born 90 years ago is just amazing! We loved to hear their story of ministry and life!

We split the group and some of us were able to purchase all the groceries for Food Distribution. We will be blessing 30 families this week! We will also have the opportunity to pray over those families.

We spent some time this morning with the kids at the daycare. We talked about Daniel in the lion's den. We made a wonderful craft with the kids.

We started off our afternoon by working at the church! We prepared the sink next to the classrooms, and we placed broken tiles to decorate it!
We are loving it!

We had a very meaningful time while visiting homes this afternoon! We were able to share time with the families but also we prayed over the families!

We kept working on the sink project! It is so meaningful to be able to decorate the sink at Pastor Kenneth’s church. There is so much love in each piece that has been placed!

We woke up earlier this morning and we went to the Wind Park in Tilaran. We had the opportunity to spend time with the Lord. We had a time in the scripture and we prayed.
