Just a few minutes ago, Ron Oliver left Centro Metodista to return to the US. I am getting him home just in time to spend his anniversary with Joyce! You are welcome Joyce!
We praise God that Yesterday was a day of celebration! Lives have been changed forever by the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today, our construction team on Senora Paula´s house will be finished. Also, today the school in San Felipe will be trained on their water purifier.
Praise God that yesterday we trained two church on the water purifiers. We celbrate that the feeding center in Alajuelita has a new roof. We led a carnival for nearly 100 people yesterday at Pastor Angel´s church. Our Sports Ministry team in La Carpio has been a trememdous blessing to the La Carpio community.
Our drive to Manuel Antonio today will be about 4 hours. We plan to leave this afternoon! Pray for safety and a fun time! We´ll return to our sites on Monday to finish up any details and to say goodbye!
We can´t express how much we appreciate our church family for thier prayerful support and their financial support. It has been awesome!

So thankful that this has been a wonderful trip so far! You all are awesome!! Give Tim a big hug from his girls. Love you all!
I am so proud of all of you and the work you are doing! Please know that I am praying for you daily. I love the updates...they help me make it until you all return and we can hear all of the stories. I do miss Becca. Please give her a hug!
On Sunday, I'll be mentioning your all your work in Costa Rica as an illustration of a point in my message on "Handling Life's Needs". Keep up the good works.
Thanks for sharing all the good news! Continued prayers are with you. Please say hi to Adam. Of course, we don't want to embarrass him, so we would never, ever recommend that you stand up in front of the whole group yelling, "Hey Adam, your parents want everyone to know they love you bunches and bunches! Hugs & Kisses!!"
