LIFE is good






So much has happened since I blogged last I really don't know where to start!!

Since, my last blog I have had some 1st time experiences that have totally changed me :)
Well I had the chance to visit the Caribbean Sea for the first time in my life... and it was beautiful!!
I went to the city of Puerto Viejo with a group of SCORE missionaries for one day and one night!! What an experience that was :)
We stayed at the El Pizote surf lodge ... and there were two phrases that best describe it... 1. Rustic 2. In the Jungle
It was pretty neat, but quite a different experience for us to say the least!!

My second 1st experience here in the CR was... I had the opportunity to lead a young lady (21 yrs. old) from the poor village called Alajuelita, to the Lord IN SPANISH!!!!

It was the first person who I lead to the Lord using only Spanish!! I am so thankful for the opportunity and I know the Lord's presence was there because His provided me with a peace like I have never experienced before! God is so good and I give Him all the praise and glory for this lady named Valeka, who is now my sister is Christ!!! I hope to follow up with her when the next group travels to her village!!

Here are a few pictures of the experiences I mentioned above!!!

Costa Rica June 2011

Hello everyone it sure has been awhile...

This summer I am spending two months overseas. I am serving as a SCORE international intern in Costa Rica.
It is a unique opportunity too because my brother Troy is here with me and he is SCORE's photography intern.

It is such a blessing to be back here in Costa Rica!! I love it so much; the culture, the people, the weather,etc.
This past week was my first week here and I had the opportunity to travel with several short-term mission groups from the U.S.
and participate in their mission work.

I went with a Church group and helped them prepare for a movie night at a newly planted church in the city of Coronado.

I went with several different sports groups to assist with their clinics and games. It is such a blessing to have the opportunity to translate for the groups.

Here are a few pics from this past week :)
