Technical Difficulties

Hello Everyone,
We apologize for not posting anything in the past few days... we are experiencing some technical difficulties.  All is well, and we expect to stat posting by the end of today.
The team is doing well, but we are all very tired.  Last night we had the opportunity to show the movie ¨Fireproof¨ to the people of Pavas.  The movie was a tremendous success.

"Opportunities Presented by God"

Contributed by Lindsey Glasier

Today was another busy day here in Costa Rica! We were all so encouraged by our sucess yesterday that we were anxious to start again. Today was a little different however, because our team was split between Pavas and La Carpio. The girls, Karen, Susie, Cathy, Naomi, and I all stayed in Pavas to work on a craft project with some of the women in the town, while the boys Duncan, Dana, John Grosser, Danny, and Jon Sperring went back to the Refuge to continue their work from yesterday.

See how the Lord is working in the "Refuge"

Here are some pictures from day one spent in the "Refuge"; on the outskirts of La Carpio. Next read our team member Dan Remmes,  recollections.
