Costa rica update # 3
hello family and friends. we are having a blast. got to the jungle yesterday with no problems. We set up camp and tents and getting supplies ready. The relationships witht he Ticos are forming after eating and playing games together last night. The building is amazing and a wonderful spot for camp. It just has the perfect setting. We have decorated alot and have signs at each tent.
The BriBri have just started to arrive. Some have helpd us all morning carrying bamboo from the forest to make tables and chairs. Camp will start in a few hours. Archie made it back to the camp today so he will be able to participate and run as co diretor with Adam. That makes Adam very happy and takes the pressure off of trying to make all the decisions in such a different culture.
Please pray for continued health and safety today. And please pray tht our students will be able to take extraordinary initiative to make relationships with the BriBri youth who can be very reserved. Pray for chapel tonight where Adam will be sharing the gospel and our theme to run the race as to win the prize. Pray for not too much rain becasue all 200 students are in tents that yes are waterproof but not in a downpour. It´s an adventure and all your kids are doing fabulous. Great attitudes and loving the experience--at the same time challenging and new for all of them.
thank you for your prayers. This is missional living and we all can´t believe God has given us the opportunity to do this! We will try to update everyday but depends on if we are making a trip into town or not. Love you all.
For the whole group,
Brenda
