Marietta First United Methodist Church

We are back in Costa Rica, we are excited to be back. We can’t wait to see what God has in store for our team.

Please pray for us as we serve in El Remante Church in Belen !

Say hi to our staff for the week: Ishi , Gabriel and Laura! They are going to be leading and translating for us!

We are so excited to serve alongside them during this week.

We had the opportunity to buy food for 15 families in the community, and we also had the chance to pray for the homes we will be visiting.

We know this is a blessing from God and an answered prayer.

Over the next few days, we will be visiting and praying for each of these families’ needs.

We appreciate your prayers for the team and the community.

We had the incredible opportunity to visit the school in Palmira; it was a new experience for all the children.

Sarah spoke about Jonah, the benefits of obedience, and how God helps us fulfill our purpose.

We also played some games, we danced and we had some crafts. It was such an amazing time

Pastor Allen and his wife Magaly shared their testimonies with us, how God brought them from a bad past to a life that was made to glorify Him.

We had the opportunity to pray for him and his family and he blessed us with prayer too!

Gloria a Dios

In our second day of VBS we shared about Daniel in the lion den’s, how God was faithful to Daniel and he protected him.

Having this time with the kids was wonderful , we colored , we sang and we played with them!

In the afternoon we went to the community to invite kids for the VBS, that we will host at the church on Thursday.

We also delivered some blessings to the amazing people around the community, it was such an amazing getting to know them.

This morning we spent time doing food distribution and inviting people to our VBS at the church , we also invited them to the church , we reminded them how important is to have a community that supports and encourages us. Jesus is waiting with open arms.

On our last day of VBS, we taught the children how God led His people out of Egypt and how He helped them through their trials—just as He helps us today.

It was a wonderful time where we were able to spend time with all the children we invited throughout the week.

For our recreation day we went to El Diamante, we did zip-lining and then we went to the beach.

It was a fun day full of sunshine and laughter
