I spent a few days this week with a young man from our church in the capitol city of San Jose. He really encouraged me as we worked alongside each other for three days. We prayed together and shared our lives with one another as we spent time in the house of his family.
You may be wondering, "what is that in the photo?" Well...that is a hot water heater for the shower. Yes...the wires and the breaker are in the shower with you while you bathe. It takes great faith and trust in the Lord to be on the ground here full-time. Many lives are being touched here, but probably ours just as much. We sincerely appreciate your prayers - now more than ever do I realize their importance for missionaries out in foreign fields!

I love it when God speaks something to you and then one year later things begin to happen according to what He planted in your spirit!
I am beginning to see how the ETC is going to come together - paso a paso (step by step). I challenge you today - be obedient to how God is leading your life and you will begin to see Him move in a mighty way! Be blessed today! Brigit held her first class on Sunday teaching the local youth English. We had a great turn-out for such short notice and limited marketing of the class.
The young people here ALL want (and need) to learn English in order to better their chances for the future. We are using this time to meet a tangible need they have in their lives - of course, Brigit took the first 15 minutes to share with them WHY we are doing this for them for free. JESUS! We are building strong relationships with people in the community. Through our time with them, we are confident many will come to the Lord! I am sure that the class size will double this Sunday - word travels fast around here! Thank you for your prayers and support. **We are still looking for sponsors for these students - $25 per month will help us offset the cost of the rent and the electric bill for the room - THANKS!** Let me encourage you! Whatever you are believing God for today, He is faithful! He will come through for you!
