Many miles and sleepless hours later we arrived at the YWAM Base in San Jose. A combination of third world charm and incomplete projects. Many warm people and good food awaited us as we worked to blend in to the culture there. The diversity of the people at the base was also a surprise, as there were Asians, Caucasians, Jamaicans, and Costa Ricans all present at the base. The food was equally diverse as any day we could have rice and beans only to be surprised for supper with beans and rice.
Praise Report! After Casey was sick most of the plane ride she is now feeling better after a little sleep and rest. Elliot Groff also almost got kicked out of the airport for hurling in a trash can. He had to pick a twelve thousand dollar trash can to puke in though. Nothing but the best for Elliot. We have our schedule and it's very full with lots of opportunities to work with the parts of San Jose society that isn't doing so well. Thanks for your prayers and interest in this mission. Leave comments and/or prayers and that will be great encouragement for us. Breakfast tomorrow at six thirty. Proclaim.
Glad to hear you made it there safely! I'll be praying for you all.

aaah, Elliot, 6:30 AM will roll around quickly! hope you're feeling better...anyone capture that event in the airport on film? hope not, but it's something you'll remember. just wait until you see the beauty of Costa Rica! Your Uncle Jim spent a semester there when he was at Goshen College. ENJOY. We're praying for your team!
ReplyDeleteHope everyone had a good night's rest. I'm praying for the anointing of God's Spirit to be on each of you as you minister to the Costa Rican people.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning to all! Glad you've gotten settled in at the YWAM base. Take lots of pics. Praying and knowing God has each of you in His hands, with so much to share with the people you meet today.
