El Final

Well folks my last day of ministry is gone and passed and I think it may have been our best yet! It was the day that we reached the most people. We went back to that same spot that we went to the day before and basically performed the drama there 4 times throughout the day. We handed out so many Bibles and literally hundreds of people stopped to watch us.

I chatted with a couple of girls my age who were looking to get plugged into a church. I prayed with a few people and just basically did my translating gig. I really like translating on short term missions because one of the things I struggle with on short term missions is making a connection and then severing it within a few hours. (At least that's how it works on these trips) By translating I am simply the one in the middle of the two who are establishing a connection. God was so good and on our last day there was absolutely NO rain so the streets were teaming with people and again the police just watched and we even got to witness to them.

We have run into a lot of other missions teams here in Costa Rica so God must be doing something here!

Last night I also had the great honor and privilege of being asked to read one of my student's testimonies for her when she was baptized. About 8 people were baptized last night and it is always a joyous sight to behold!

Tomorrow at O'dark thirty I am leaving for the San Blas Islands in Panama. I will be traveling by plane, four wheeler and boat to get there! That being said I will have absolutely NO internet! Sorry y'all this coming week may be a blank in the blogging world. I will try to journal and catch you up on it later. Until then, please pray that God would give me the energy and endurance to continue this trip!

  1. we are praying for you, for strength, refreshment of Spirit and discernment. May God prepare the path for you and may you be affirmed by God in the work you do. We love you here in R.I. p.s. did a bit of clamming, were wishing you were here to enjoy broken nails, sand under those broken nails and cuts to boot. I bet right about now you are green with envy. :)
